Paul Neuhaus / JUST LIGHT Astrid 14416-16. A slender arm ends in a flat elongated LED head. Its flexible section aims light towards a chosen part of a tabletop or book without moving the base. The flat circular foot and narrow profile form a simple modern shape.
The colour temperature range is 3000–5500 K, from warm white to cooler white light.
Placement and operation
The light stands 24–53.5 cm high and occupies 37 × 33 cm. Check these dimensions against its intended position and any shelves or furniture above it. The power cord is 150 cm long, so account for the distance to the socket when choosing where to place it.
Touch controls change brightness and the white tone. Choose warmer or cooler light and the amount needed at the time. The integrated LED module is included, so no separate bulb needs to be selected before using the lamp.
The base has wireless charging for compatible smartphones and a USB port for wired charging. A suitable phone can rest on the base while you work at a desk. A gentle night light is also available through the control panel on the base.
The complete fitting delivers 520 lm. This is the useful figure for comparing the brightness of finished lights because it accounts for the light leaving the body. Dimming reduces that output whenever full brightness is not needed.
The complete lamp draws 5.5 W. This figure describes its energy consumption in operation, while the amount of emitted light is expressed in lumens. These are two different pieces of information when comparing fittings.
