Made of metal & acrylic material, this lamp adds a refreshing style to your home. The geometric design creates a bold, modern look that is sure to make an impression. The change in the lamp’s footprint is ridiculously dramatic.Bring a touch of modern style into your home with this chic and minimalist lamp. The table clamp was by far my favorite of the two. These different mounts keep the E-Reading lamp very adaptable. If you wanted a different base for a typical lamp, that usually means buying a whole new lamp entirely.
It’s great that BenQ offers these add-ons. We talk about using these types of alternatives in our article on getting more space on your desk.

One is a table clamp, and the other is a floor stand.īoth of these accessories let you free up desk space considerably. These accessories simply adapt your E-Reading lamp to different bases. I was able to test out both optional accessories in addition to the standard desk lamp base.
#HIGH QUALITY MINIMALIST DESK LAMP MANUAL#
If you prefer a fixed lighting situation, manual mode is the way to go. You don’t have to hold it down, just a simple press and release. If you want to change the color temperature of the lamp, you can press the dial down to switch the dial to temperature control instead of brightness. By default rotating the dial will adjust the brightness of the lamp. Rotating the dial will automatically exit any of the auto-dimming modes if you are in them. The dial control easily lets you manually choose your brightness and temperature if you don’t like either of the auto-dimming modes. My college studying days are over! Dial Control To be fair, I do use a monitor at my desk way more often than books and paperwork. They give me a vibe that is inviting and less… let’s say “hospital-like”.įor that reason mainly, I chose to use the warmer screen mode auto-dimming setting instead of the paper mode. Personally, I always choose warmer tone lights. They mention that paper mode is brighter and cooler to keep your attention and better illuminate your books or documents. Here BenQ claims that the screen mode is lower to avoid high lighting contrast between the lamp and your screen.
BenQ calls them Screen Mode and Paper Mode. There are two ambient light modes available. Most of the time it was responsive so this is not a big issue. I was holding the ring for over two seconds sometimes with no change in lighting modes. Capacitive touch controls are super sensitive for some people and not others. I noticed that once in a while this control was a bit unresponsive. To enter or change the auto-dimming modes, you have to tap and hold the metal ring (the on/off switch) for about two seconds. You activate this ambient light sensor in the auto-dimming modes. This light actually detects the light levels on your desk and adjusts the brightness as necessary. Most desk lamps don’t have a feature like this. It is located right next to the ball joint under the curved section of the lamp. This base was a little too large for me, thankfully they offered a table clamp accessory, we’ll touch on this accessory later.īenQ calls this lamp “intelligent”, and this is due to the ambient light sensor built into the lamp. The lamp is fairly large too, so if the size and weight of the base keep the lamp stable, most people won’t complain here. The diameter is 8.7 inches! That’s a significant area of my desk. I had to get rid of a desk plant I had because the base had such a large diameter. When I went to place the base on my desk, I also noticed it was pretty large. It lets you adjust the lamp without the base walking around everywhere. This is fantastic for lamps with articulating arms. I immediately noticed that the base plate was very heavy. This is everything you need to get your lamp up and running. Here’s what comes in the box with your E-Reading lamp. The desk lamp was packaged beautifully in a very Apple-esque clean white box.
