I use the tensor modelFS125 on top of the elevated back of my computer desk. The quality is excellent with relatively low wattage. I would purchase another if they were available.

Discount Tensor(R) Full-Spectrum Desk Lamp, Brushed Steel
I can not recommend any Tensor or Catalina lighting product due to their horrendous customer service! If you attempt to contact them about a warranty issue, they promise they will take care of it, but they never send you the paperwork necessary to process the return.When I called their customer service department in Canada to complain, they got extremely nasty saying "its only a light" and "I do not get paid enough to deal with these problems" In summary I believe that Catalina/ Tensor products are poorly made, and the company does not stand behind its products

Review of Feit Electric 60A/MP-130 60-Watt A19 Household Bulb, Frosted, 24
I ordered a 24-pack each of the 100 Watt and 60 Watt bulbs. The box was well packed and received with not a single broken bulb! I tested a few of each of the bulbs from each 24-pack and they worked with no problems. The construction of these bulbs appears higher in quality than the GE and Sylvania bulbs I have been buying, especially the soldering on the screw end and side. Some name-brand bulbs I have purchased have big solder globs making it difficult to screw them in or remove them from the light socket.
Please be aware that these bulbs are rated for 130V and 120V operation will produce less light and will look slightly more yellow-orange in color. I am a professional photographer with color darkroom experience so very familiar with "color temperature." The 100 Watt bulb looked about the same brightness when placed next to a 75 Watt bulb, and the color was almost identical. My outlet voltage tends to run high at 120V to 122V, because I have a transformer on the utility pole right in front of my house. If you live farther from the closest transformer or in a rural area the voltage may be as low as 110V to 115V. If so, these 130V bulbs may not be the best choice Light output drops off very quickly with lower voltage and will be much warmer in color (yellow-orange). But even at low line voltage they are a good choice for outside lights and hard-to-reach bulbs, since they will last 2 to 3 times longer than a standard 120V bulb. They will also look brighter and more pleasing than those nasty CFL bulbs!
Another "bright" idea is to try mixing your light sources by using a compact fluorescent lamp (CFL)in some fixtures and these 130V incandescent bulbs in others. This works especially well with light fixtures that have two or more sockets. CFL bulbs are colder in color toward blue-green. The yellow-orange color of these 130V bulbs will help to provide a more pleasing light when used together with CFL bulbs. You will also be saving on energy, just not as much as using CFL bulbs in ALL your sockets.

I first learned about these bulbs 15 years ago, where we used them in commercial applications. I can tell you that these bulbs last longer than anything else we tried. I finally started buying them for my own personal use, and some of these in my house are still burning after nearly 10 years. Compared to other 130 Volt bulbs, these are hands down the best bulb I have ever tried...and I have tried a bunch of them.Best Deals for Feit Electric 60A/MP-130 60-Watt A19 Household Bulb, Frosted, 24

One bulb was broken in the box. It was not in an end package so I am not sure how it got broken. I suspect that it was broken prior to shipment. I have used the Decade 20,000 hour version of this light bulb and loved it. Will have to see how long this bulb lasts. Hope this lasts well.Saturday, December 13, 2014

I received my light and immediately set it up, or should I say, plugged it in. I noticed right away it was making noise while rotating. I figured after it ran a while the noise would work its way out. It never did, the gears were making a grinding noise and once every rotation there would be a pop. I returned it and got a replacement asap from Amazon.
The second also makes a noise but isn't as noticeable, but its the gears again.
Otherwise the light is cool and makes an impact in a sports room.
I'll deal with the slight noise......there really isnt much to say about this product it was a gift for my husbands boom boom room (mancave)

These lamps so pretty in the picture. I was aware that the price was very very low but I figured I would give them a try anyway because they are touch lamps which was what I was looking for. They do not come assembled. Assembly is a pain in the neck. The individual pieces of glass that you have to put together were broken so I packed them all back up and returned them. Very very disappointed.

It is pretty; it has good lighting, but it is a little bit on the cheap side, and I had a little trouble keeping the light bulb in and stable.Best Deals for Polished Brass Touch Table Lamp with Brass Key Finial
This is a pretty little lamp but it is very fragile. The pieces of the shade are hanging on just barely to the frame and if you are clumsy or have big hands you may not be able to assemble it. The glass components are held onto the frame with delicate clips which I feel could have been a little longer. I have this in my guest room and I literally have to issue a warning "touch the base only, do not touch the shade". I love touch lamp technology especially for older guests but I don't want to have to worry about the shade falling apart if it is actually touched. I did not send this back but I would not buy it again.Honest reviews on Polished Brass Touch Table Lamp with Brass Key Finial

Product arrived ok Seemed in good shape The base is so delicate with no cushioning on the bottom of the lamp if you set the lamp down normally it will crack as my lamp did I suggest putting stick on pads around base to avert such a disaster. The lamp is quite lovely and perfect for my daughters bedroom except for the new cracks.
I did measurements from the product description, which were confusing. So when it arrived, I was shocked to see how small it really was. It was meant for living room, but ended up on my bedroom nightstand. The lamp shade also lays pretty low onto the lamp itself. There is no way to raise it up and for it to stay in place. It was definitely not worth the $50 I paid.

Best Motion Lamp - 13 inch, Clear Liquid - Red Deals
It gets way too hot, unlike lava lamps I've bought previously. If you buy it, put it out of child's reach. It's also a lot smaller than I intended.For the low price I paid for this lamp, it's hard to complain. The plastic that makes up the stand/base itself seems to be a little bit flimsy, but it would do if you had to use it. I personally just took the liquid-filled glass piece out and put it into the old lava lamp I already had (it's the same brand, so it fits perfectly). The wax in my old lamp had turned bad, and the liquid was cloudy -and this was a great replacement. The liquid for this new one is crystal clear, and when the wax heated up, it had plenty of 'action' and bubbling, as I'd hoped. The product was also shipped very quickly, and it was packaged securely in a bigger box, so damage was unlikely. Overall, a great find for the price!

A vintagage style bulb shows well in this type of light...none availible in the candelabra style base.it was exactly what I ordered except to large for my application. I would like to return the lights and start over with these people, they are awesome!

I have pruchased many lights over the years and the Stella Constellation light is by far the best. It can be set at three light variations. It is just wonderful. A light touch of the finger tip and it is on. It has a long cord making it easier to move to the location that bests suits you in the moment. I use it next to my sewing machine and then turn it to light up my large ironing board when I get up to press. I cannot imagine how I have survived without it. I would buy another in a second. It is more expensive but worth the investment.

I didn't want to start a collection of lighting, I already have an Ott clamp-on light in my sewing machine area & a floor lamp near my cutting table. To be fair, I only have the 18 watt, it's not enough. I spotted this light in a blog, so I began to research, I ended up buying this ,thinking I would probably return it. Absolutely not! I love it! It is sleek, very portable, lights up a good portion of an area when you extend the neck and I love the touch feature and also the different modes!

This is a very unique, very stylish ceiling light. The major downfall is the amount (or lack of) light that this puts out. Basically it makes a good nightlight that will cast a soft mood light across a big room. You cannot use this light as primary lighting, not nearly enough output for that. However for a accent light it is very nice.

I bought this lamp for Mom's birthday. It's just beautiful and she loves it. It looks even better lit up than it does in the picture: imagine all the colors just glowing from the lightbulbs and you'll know what I mean. The colors are vibrant, especially the blues, but not garish. It has a heavy bottom, so it definitely won't tip over, but picking it up could be a problem for weaker folks. Highly recommended!Friday, June 13, 2014
Buy Cal Lighting BO-465TB Aurora Table Lamp in Brushed Steel
I ordered a set of these lamps for my bedroom. The lamps are obviously well made. They sit solidly on my night stands. The mica panels in the lamp shade seem durable for such a delicate material. The on and off function of the pull chains is very smooth and has a well built feel to it.
The lamps have two bulb sockets per lamp and a pull chain for each socket. I hadn't wanted two bulbs in each lamp, but then I realized it's perfect for my needs. I have a low wattage bulb in the socket closest to the bed for late night reading and a higher wattage bulb in the other socket for illuminating the bedroom.
The light shining through the mica gives the mica the appearance of illuminated papyrus. It's a very attractive effect.
I'm very pleased with the lamps.

The description on this lamp reads "White Mica panels." When the lamp came, I was very disappointed to see that the panels were not white, but a dark tan color. I had ordered this lamp thinking it would give me bright lighting for the study, but that was not the case with tan panels! In addition, returning this lamp was a nightmare, with 7 emails to the seller before I could get a return label for the manufacturer, Cal Lighting. FedEx tracking showed that the lamp arrived over a week ago, but I haven't heard about crediting my account yet. I called Cal Lighting Customer Service and left my name and phone number, but no one has returned my call. Finally had to file an A-Z Guarantee Claim for reimbursement. A total disaster and much frustration!
