Rechargeable Table Lamp Eclaire Lite 30cm, LED, White Aluminium

For venues with small tables. A table for two in a wine bar already holds two glasses, the bottle, the water and a board: an 8cm base is the space that is left. And for venues with tables outside, where there is no socket and a cable cannot be run across the pavement.

White is the finish for pale rooms, linen tablecloths and terraces with matching furniture. The range has three colours: white, bronze and grey, all the same size.

At home the rechargeable table lamp is the light that moves: from the balcony table to the bedside, to a shelf no socket reaches. It charges from a phone cable, if the port is the same.

An evening service from 7pm to 1am runs for six hours. The stated battery life of this rechargeable table lamp, over 7 hours, covers it with an hour in hand. The sum works for dinner and does not work for lunch and dinner together: a venue that opens twice a day recharges in the afternoon, between shifts. The supplier does not say at which of the three levels the figure is measured. At the highest the charge lasts less than at the lowest, and the test is done on one evening, in the room, before ordering for every table.

Three brightness levels, one button

Each press of the button moves to the next level. Three fixed levels have an advantage on the floor: every table set to the second level has the same light, and whoever lays up does not have to compare them by eye. Low for aperitif time, medium for dinner, high for reading the list.

IP54: what it covers and what it does not

The IP54 rating has two digits and each says one thing. The 5 is about dust: some can get in, but not enough to stop the lamp. The 4 is about water: the lamp withstands splashes from any direction. At the table that means light rain arriving while the terrace is being cleared, a knocked-over glass, a damp cloth wiped over the body.

IP54 does not cover a water jet and does not cover immersion. The lamp is not hosed down with the terrace floor, does not stay out in a storm and does not go in the sink. At the end of the night it comes in with the tablecloths.

Charging after service

The USB cable is in the box. A wall adaptor is not listed in the stated contents: a USB socket or a multi-port charger is needed. At close the lamps come in with the tablecloths and go on charge in the back of house. Charging time is not stated. One rechargeable table lamp per table means one USB port per table: a multi-port charger keeps the shelf tidy.

Care

The body is painted aluminium and the diffuser is polycarbonate: wipe them with a damp cloth and dry them. The supplier does not state which detergents are allowed or ruled out, so keep to water, a neutral detergent and a soft cloth, which leaves the paint unmarked.
