Review of Crackle Glass Mermaid On Conch Accent Table Lamp
Beautiful product!! My daughter is gonna love it! Thank you so much for the prompt shipping. It was here before it was even due.I greatly recommend this! Great for any beach place or as a bathroom light in the evening (what I use it for). Was looking for a mermaid light to add a certain sexuality to the room but most had breasts showing. This one is pretty and classy. Excellent quality and color. Well worth the price.

Review of JURAF Bedside Reading Light
My wife and I have used a couple JURAF reading lamps now for six months and have been very pleased with them. They use very, very little power yet the Multi-LED light head in bright enough without being too bright. The beam of light is wide enough that it illuminates a book or magazine page but not so wide as to bother the other occupant of the bed. They have switches on the light head but I generally don't bother to turn mine off. When I don't want the light I just swing mine out to the side of the bed where it serves as a night light. They are large enough to offer lots of adjustability. The long adjustable arms are not, however, the heavy flexible type used in old antique style goose neck lamps. These can not be bent to a radical new shape over and over without the risk of eventually breaking them. That doesn't seem to be a worry for us as we find we don't need to make anything other than very small adjustments now and then. We just swing them in and out as needed.
My wife previously used a small battery powered LED reading light that clipped right onto her book so as not to bother me. It eat up many a pair of expensive button cell Li-ion batteries. I bet we spent close to the price of her JURAF replacing the batteries in that little dim thing. It also wasn't even in the same class as the JURAF when it came to using it.
I might add that although the CSA Listed wall-wart style power supply is imported, I found out that most parts are manufactured in NY State where JURAF lamps are assembled!
Update: I've been using a pair of these for a year now. I liked them so much a bought several more for Christmas presents for relatives last year. They have all been flawless.

I received this in a Priority Mail mailing envelope. There was no bubble wrap or protection for the item at all. The light is insufficient. It might be ok for not interfering in a spouse's sleep since it isn't bright, but I'm trying to read books and it's just too dim to do the job. The benefit of this light is its size. It can stretch and bend well enabling it to be attached to a side table. The construction is a bit flimsy including the clamp though it does extend to a very large size enabling it to attach to anything. Unfortunately the alternatives aren't great. I've done a lot of research. There are some nice lamps out there for bedside reading but they're over $100. So the maxim fits: You get what you pay for...Best Deals for JURAF Bedside Reading Light
Someone made exactly the light I needed. It adjusts easily to exactly where I want it. The book is well lit, but the rest of the room is not, so my husband can sleep. It's a goofy looking thing, which only adds to its appeal for me. It works perfectly.Honest reviews on JURAF Bedside Reading Light
The quality lamp is easy to install, adjusts to you exact need no matter how you lay when you read and does not disturb your bed pardner's sleep. I will never buy another bed lamp.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for JURAF Bedside Reading Light
Very nice combination of low profile and flexible adjustment reading light. The best feature is how it easily swings away once you have it set up. When you swing it back, it winds up in the same place. The electrical connections are a bit clunky, but it plugs into the wall which I much prefer to ones that require batteries.Tuesday, November 25, 2014

List Price: $19.95

Unlike most inexpensive solar lights on the market today, this one was unique, attractive and NOT MADE OUT OF PLASTIC. It is primarily the same clay material that plant pots are made of, covered with amber tinted glass chips (mosaic). Very little to put together. Just put top on and push button to turn light on. Works very well and gives the garden a charming look at night. I got them on sale, so I consider this an extraordinary value.
I have prime, so shipping was two days, as usual. I have been very happy with amazon service.
I was surprised to see it goes white/clear at night and does not cast an orange glow. This isn't bad I kind of like having two lamps for the price of one, but if you're expecting to highlight areas with orange-like glows on Halloween with this you will be disappointed.
Being able to easily take the solar light off and putting in a real tea candle is a nice addition to this good-valued light.
The light unit itself has not lasted very long. I purchased mine in May of 2010; all 3 stopped working within 12-15 months of purchase.
There were several possible reasons they stopped working: corrosion on the battery terminals and/or battery, failure of the rechargeable batteries, failure of the LED, failure of the internal circuitry.
I believe I have eliminated the first two causes: the battery terminals have been cleaned, and I have replaced the batteries with standard 1.2V AA batteries. Still no joy.
Meanwhile, other (older) LED lights are still running perfectly.
If you have a spare solar panel/LED assembly already (fitting an ID of 3.25") in good working order, you may like the soft golden hue of these little glass jars. Otherwise, you may want to spend your money on a more reliable unit.

I bought this solar table light sight unseen and am very pleased with it. The construction is solid and the mosaics are well crafted yet clearly show hand-made elements which I do like. The solar light just sits on of the glass and does what it's supposed to despite only having one LED in it. You're not going to be reading by this light or be able to use it as a marker to light up an area on your deck. It solely looks nice and pretty sitting on your patio table but offers no real lighting capability. That's to be expected though with this kind of accent light.I was surprised to see it goes white/clear at night and does not cast an orange glow.

Discount 5inch Hobby Magnifying Light
The metal swing arms for this lighted magnifier are not steel I-beams but the lightweight frame is sturdy enough for normal usage. The fluorescent bulb provides plenty of light and the magnifying lens allows for an undistorted view. The clamping system works fine for me.

These Xledia diamond bulbs are brighter than their lumen ratings would suggest, especially as downlights in cans. They are omnidirectional, but a large percentage of the light still comes out the top (bottom if a downlight), so less light is lost into the can and more light shines where you want it. So beware, if you replace another bulb lumen for lumen, you may get a distressingly bright bulb. I replaced a 100W equivalent CFL with the 60W equivalent Xledia diamond bulb; you can extrapolate from there for these intermediate bulbs like 75, 80, 90 W equivalents.

Reviews of Luxo Flourescent or Incandescent Combo Task Light
This is similar to the other 2 Luxo lights that I have. Well made, solid, simple. I bought the first one 46 years ago and it's still my desk lamp and still going strong!
This new one is now, of all things, a workshop lamp. (Older, tired eyes need help in retirement with sharpening saws and other close work!) The lamps duel bulbs add to the intensity and temperature of the light.
The lamp comes with a Mickey-Mouse LED? bulb in the center. I replaced that with a 100w real-live light bulb works well. The LED gave off too little light. My only real gripe is the switch arrangement. The fluorescent ring has to be switched on separately on top of the lamp a minor inconvenience. All and all I'm quite happy with this lamp. Maybe you do sometimes get what you pay for.
The combination of a cool white fluorescent and a 100W incandescent gives a beautiful uniform low-contrast light that's first rate for close work.
Don't be fooled by the cheap 'n' nasty Ledu knockoffs!
It would be five stars, except that the last one of these I bought had springs too weak to hold it up--I had to put another spring in parallel with each one. (I had a big spring assortment from Harbor Freight in my workbench drawer, so this only took a few minutes.)
Mine came with a self-ballasted 2700 K compact fluorescent for the center light instead of an incandescent.
But the only kvetch I have is that the silly fluorescent bulb that comes with the lamp is too puny. It adds no increase in the light level of brightness. Considering what an investment the thing is you should use a wonderful 70 watt (converted to) LED. It also adds a bit of warmth to the light that no matter how hard the florescent manufacturing companies try, can't match.
The rays of light it exudes when I turn it on make my living room look alive, like it's being lit by the evening sun, streaking through light clouds. The details of my living room become so clear; the world becomes high definition even without the HD glasses I bought at Target.
This lamp has changed my life, and I know that it will change yours.

I've been using these for 20 years--I have three, and I love them. Of course I have a mother lode of 100W, 1690-lumen incandescents, which you need for these--don't be fooled by the low-wattage one they include in the package. (Since the ban, you can't get normal 100W bulbs easily, but there are places where you can buy 100W halogens that fit normal medium base light sockets like this one. You really want >1500 lumens, trust me.)The combination of a cool white fluorescent and a 100W incandescent gives a beautiful uniform low-contrast light that's first rate for close work.

It is well-built as advertised -I should hope so for the pricebut the circular fluorescent light is very slow to come on and you have to hold down an awkward switch for several seconds until it does.

For so long my living room was not sufficiently lit. I would struggle to read books, to spot misplaced items, to decide which button to press on my TV remote control; constantly changing the channel when I meant only to change the volume.

I had no doubt over its quality as I had seen it in many movies before, but even I couldn't predict its excellence.The rays of light it exudes when I turn it on make my living room look alive, like it's being lit by the evening sun, streaking through light clouds.

While the picture is very accurate to the lamp, I was disappointed on a web search to only find the same picture repeat over and over. To my surprise when I received it, it's not round! It is oval from the top view and parabolic from the side view. VERY interesting to look at.
So, I posted some pictures of my own which help to show the 3D shape of this lamp. I hope this helps other buyers.
This lamp takes two candelabra bulbs up to 60W incandescent. I am using two soft white 5W LED bulbs which produce equivalent light output between 25W and 40W, just about perfect.
The dangling beads reflect light with a deep amber reflection. Each is suspended on a small metal chain. Two of the beads were missing on mine, but this does not detract from the light's beauty.
The shade has a "sticky" feel to it and has a small bit of a petroleum odor. I suppose this is from the soldering residue and I saw from an internet search this is typical.
The switch is in the cord, about 8 inches away from the base. It's the typical roller wheel clicky.
The light is beautiful and matches my relatively dark office environment perfectly. I'm glad I bought it.
