Comparisons & Roundups

Learn why thermal management - not just lumens - determines lamp longevity, flicker, and uniformity, and how metal bases outperform wood with simple desk tests.

Choose a standing desk lamp that reaches 42", delivers 500 lux uniformly (U0≥0.6), minimizes flicker (PstLM≤0.4), and stays stable under vibration.

Get criteria and placement tips to keep eyes comfortable during outages, covering flicker-free, CCT, CRI, runtime, and glare control for battery-backed lamps.

Learn how to pick lighting for OLED, LCD, and e-ink: prioritize R9, TM-30, and beam uniformity, reduce glare, and use actionable tests for accurate color.
