The dining room table or the kitchen counter are both examples of places that only offer overhead lighting. They are areas that give me plenty of room to spread my work out in front of me, but don't have direct light on a specific area. I frequently bring in a desk lamp, but they must be plugged in and that can be distance limiting. At the dining room table, the cord has to stretch across the walk-through path and could easily trip someone walking by or pull the lamp off the table.
The Daylight Smart Go Travel Lamp is cordless. It is powered by a rechargeable battery that lasts over 6 hours on the highest setting. Thus far, that has been longer than I will sit and work constantly on any project. On the lowest lighting setting, it will last for 30 hours without recharging. However, I doubt I would ever use it on that lowest setting. After all, my objective is to add a lot of light to a specific work area.
Features of the Daylight Smart Go Travel Lamp
There are several features of the Smart Go Travel Lamp that would make me recommend it. While it was given to me to use while crafting, it was the lamp I grabbed when I set down this year to work on income taxes. The light it provided for reading and writing was fabulous! It is actually more directed light than a desk lamp offers and was definitely an improvement over standard room lighting.

I must tell you, this is probably the best crafting gift I have ever received. Excellent lighting is so important for stitching, bead work, reading a pattern, precision cutting, and so much more. I am not an artist, but I can certainly see how having this directed light on your work would be magnificent.
Good direct lighting for the simple daily tasks of paperwork, paying bills, and accounting is essential. This is the best desk lamp I have ever owned, but you must remember to recharge it since it is cordless.

I have used an Ott lamp for years for my crafting, and in recent years I also find it makes simply reading my books more comfortable. I couldn't get along without this brighter lamp. The only problem is it has to be plugged in, thus making it's use limited to specific areas within reach of a plug. There have definitely been times when it would be helpful to have this bright light at my desk or on my kitchen island. So your cordless daylight Smart Go lamp sounds like the perfect addition to my household. Thanks for telling me about this lamp, Mouse.
ReplyDeletePS: What a terrific gift from your hubby!
My husband also gave me a rechargeable portable task lamp for crafting, doing my nails, etc. It is one of the best gifts I have ever received as well. So glad you love yours!
ReplyDeleteThat is a very handy item. I love the idea that it's rechargeable and cordless, and portable - use it anywhere - this is a convenient item to give as a gift as well

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea!
ReplyDeleteOh that is an amazing light! So many times I need a little extra (my eyes are getting older) light in places that don't have it. This would fit into my life perfectly. Have to go show this to my other half! Great find Sylvestermouse!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like an awesome find. I like that it is a decent size, without being overly big for the space. Cool!
