Ott-Lite Total Flex Task Lamp


The Total Flex Task Lamp is the best lamp for your workstation! I bought this lamp on a whim but I wanted to let people know about it because it is such a great product. It is not a fashionable lamp. Stop reading now if you are looking for a gorgeous lamp. This lamp is black and gray. There is nothing special about the way it looks. This lamp is amazing solely because of its functionality. Ultimate lighting and design combine to create the best task lamp imaginable. There is a curvaceous body on this lamp. It is referred to as gooseneck. Gooseneck designs allow for the best possible movement and flexibility. The body of this lamp is fully adjustable and the curved neck at the top forces the light to shine downward on anything in range. The light produced is natural so it is similar to daylight and it saves energy. Energy efficient lighting is eco-friendly and I always prefer to go the rout if possible. I love that this lamp is made with high tech LED lighting while using very little energy. Despite the low energy usage, the compatible bulb lasts forever. The site I purchased it on, thelitesoource.com said the bulb lasts up to 10,000 hours. The Total Flex Task Lamp has a simple rocker switch which is a basic switch that is obvious on the base of the lamp and can quickly and comfortably be pressed on or off. The natural light used is healthy for human eyes. Scientists and doctors recommend it for reading and similar tasks requiring attention to detail. Since reading is more enjoyable with this lamp and eye strain is reduced I love to keep it at work. I stare at a computer screen all day. At times my eyes used to get tired and I felt overwhelmed. Obviously, my work days can still be very strenuous but the days have been a bit more pleasant with the flex lamp. Seriously, you will be amazed at the difference it makes. Colors look brighter and appear to be in their true form under this specific light. Let me stress again, this is not a lamp to place in the newest room of the house because you are looking for great décor. It is amazing because it is practical.

Ott-Lite Hampton Table Lamp


I wanted a lamp that looked sleek and professional for a few desks around my offices. The Hampton Table Lamp is a little bit expensive but the look is exactly what I wanted. It’s definitely a necessary purchase if you only need one or two. It has a great business feel about it. The Brass color is optimal for any office space. The shade is adjustable. It tilts so the light is shone exactly where needed. The reason I chose this lamp and bought so many despite cost, is because it not only looks great but is functional specifically for office use. It is designed with Ottlite high definition lighting. It was made with modern technology to develop light that is energy efficient and easy on the eyes. The light is bright and great for reading but it isn’t harsh. It has a soothing illumination. The bulb is non glare. My employees have complimented me on these purchases. They really have been a hit around the office. I have heard “reading seems less strenuous.” The lamp doesn’t have a round shade so it doesn’t take up an excessive amount of space. The Honey brass is handsome and expensive looking. Each desk sends off a message of qualified, sophisticated, and powerful. Granted, everyone in my office may not be all of the above but the lamps really have helped improve the image around the company.

13 Watt Self-Ballasted Swirl Bulbs B84J32


If you are a fan of Ott-lite and have previously visited thelitesource.com, then you are already aware of the many great products offered. The 13watt self ballasted bulb is one of my favorite bulbs available. The bulb is only compatible with specific lamps and conveniently, I happen to own most of the lamps this bulb works with. If you own a lamp that can’t use the 13watt self-ballasted swirl don’t worry about it. There are many other sufficient bulbs offered. I just like this one because of its low glare and low heat feature. These features come in handy when I’m sewing and scrapbooking. The light never gets hot and never shines too brightly. It gives off plenty of light allowing me to illuminate an entire space. However, I have purchased a variety of lamps so I can choose to illuminate large spaces or smaller ones depending on the shade I use. I just switch out the bulb. The 13watt self-ballasted model B84J32  is mainly for crafting or projects requiring attention to detail. The bulb was actually made to increase the unnoticed things the average eye tends to miss. Thanks to modern technology, words appear clearer, fine lines stick out and colors are seen in their truest form. With this bulb, details are never overlooked. Natural light is found in all of the products at thelitesource.com. Bulbs such as the 13watt are energy efficient and eco-friendly.

Ott-Lite 27watt replacement tube model- PST27R

Choosing the perfect bulb is important because it can improve your vision, add convenience to your lifestyle, and make reading, crafting or studying easier and more enjoyable. When selecting a bulb, you must first select a lamp because different lamps require different bulbs. If you are already aware of a great bulb then it is okay to buy the bulb and then choose a lamp that is compatible in that order. Personally, I like a 27 watt bulb shaped like a tube. I found it at thelitesource.com. It is called the 27watt replacement tube. It is valuable to realize the number 27 doesn’t mean the bulb isn’t sufficient. Higher isn’t always better. The smaller the number, the lower the energy used. The 27watt replacement tube gives off natural light so combined with low energy it is eco-friendly. It has a non glare affect and natural illumination. Modern technology was used in creating this bulb so I feel like it is currently the best and I am happy about the results. There is never a glare distracting me and this bulb was made specifically for increasing colors and details. It really does make a difference. Reading is easy for long hours because natural light prevents eye strain. Also, the bulb doesn’t produce heat so that is just another reason why it is tolerable for long hours. The bulb brings out tiny details making difficult selections simple. The bulb lasts up to 10,000 hours and I have yet to need a new one. Thelitesource.com offers the bulb and I have never experienced problems with the company so in the future I can just order replacements.

SHILOH PHARMACY FLOOR LAMP model number 20F91GBS


I just bought this adorable lamp with this vintage charm appeal. The Shiloh Pharmacy floor lamp is a Golden Bronze. It’s great because it looks good in any room. The best parts of the lamp are its bulb and adjustable movement. It has screws under the shade of the lamp. The screws don’t stand out or look awkward. They blend in nicely and are very easily adjusted, loosening the shade so it can be moved in any direction. Once the light is shining where desired, you simply tighten the screws. It is a very quick process. It really is worth the purchase because once the lamp in placed where you want it, the light shining is so bright. It is a great accessory because the light is bright yes, but not overwhelming. The 20watt bulb has a non glare affect. Surprisingly, I do notice a difference in this bulb compared to others. I’m not sure if it is unusual but this bulb never gets hot either. I got it because I found out natural light is healthier for my eyes. Also, natural light uses less energy. The Shiloh Floor lamp makes details appear bolder and colors seem brighter. I found it at thelitesource.com and it wasn’t that expensive. I love it and am considering buying similar lamps for my bedside. The natural light would be great for reading at night.

Ott-Lite Lisbon Art Lamp

This year’s art show brought in more questions, compliments and purcheses than any previous show. People kept showing up and instead of going home around 10pm, I finally had to ask people to leave after midnight. I like to think I’m a great artist but my style and interest in landscapes for painting hasn’t really changed much over this last year. I’m contributing my success to the Lisbon Art Lamp. The petite lamp is finished in a professional brass and looks great hanging above each painting. I was nervous about ruining my painting despite the positive things I heard about this lamp. I tested it before the show on a couple pieces I wouldn’t terribly miss. Not only did the light not cause any damages, but it brought out the detail in colors. Seriously, the colors were dramatically enhanced. I decided to hang the lamp in my craft room so I could complete all of my unfinished paintings beneath it. It doesn’t produce heat so my paintings are safe and I never feel over heated painting under it for long hours. The details in my work are so much clearer so I’ve found I make fewer mistakes. The 10watt replacement tube is easy to install and can be found at thelitesource.com along with other great lamps and accessories for crafting.
