Review on QUANS 5W Cool White LED Desk Table Lamp, Clamp Clip on Gooseneck, Ultra Bright Silver, 19.68 inch by Curtis Castillo

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Too bright; very hot, too hot.

I bought this lamp as a bedside reading lamp. I attach it to my bedside table. But the thing is, it's just too bright! In a normally dark room, the output image is dazzlingly bright. The reflection from your side is uncomfortable. I had to aim it at the ceiling to diffuse the light. Also, one of the reasons I went with the LED was that the heat emitted by an incandescent bulb can pose a fire hazard (and is also a waste of energy). However, I'm confused as to how this "5W" bulb can get so hot that I can't even touch the "lampshade" and I'm afraid it could be a fire hazard. There's something wrong with that. I have two of these and both are the same.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Neutral color
