Bright lamp for wireless charging my iPhone XR

Beautiful white LED lamp. Quite large (bigger than some of the other LED bulbs I've bought) fits well on my desk. The LED bulb is connected to a piece of metal (I'm guessing aluminum, about a foot) with a polished plastic base, which to me would be a pleasant surprise - if the white plastic connector were also a very boring piece. It's lightweight yet stable on my desk. Of course, I didn't buy it for its looks. I was more or less interested in the possibility of wireless charging. The lamp comes with an 18W USB fast charger, which is a very unusual component in today's market (it's a regular USB connector, not USB-C). I need to connect the lamp's USB port to the charger - it's hardwired to the lamp. This wire is about 4 feet long. You need an extension cord if the place where you want to put the lamp is far from the socket. There is a wireless charging mark in the middle of the base, which is where I put the phone to charge. After I did this, the light at the base changed from red to green and my iphone xr indicated that it was charging (it took about the same time as charging from another wall charger, so NO fast charging!). There is a separate USB port on the side for hardwiring a USB cable to charge another device. Attention: You can only use two of the three functions at the same time (lamp, USB and wireless). Yes I tried --- not enough strength to carry all three at the same time. The on/off button also changes the temperature of the light. But you have to iterate through each time (i.e. 4 times to turn off). That's the only thing I would have wished for differently, but I can live with that.

Pros
  • Easy installation
Cons
