DESK LAMPS FAQ

LOWEST PROFILE
Q) Which desk light has the lowest profile?
A) The Microfluorescent T4 Light Fixtures have dimensions of only 0.75 inches wide by 1.38 inches high.
EASIEST to INSTALL
Q) Which desk light is the easiest to install?
A) If a single light fixture is being installed, the Microfluorescent T4 Light Fixture or the Fluorescent T5 Swivel Stick is probably the easiest to install. However, if a series of light fixtures are being installed the Microfluorescent T4 Light Fixtures, the Fluorescent T5 Low-Profile Light Fixtures, and the Fluorescent T5 SlimLite XL Light Fixtures are probably the easiest to install because they are all "linkable" with easy-to-use flexible connectors.
ADJUSTABILITY
Q) Once it’s installed which under cabinet light fixture can be adjusted?
A) The Fluorescent T5 Swivel Stick can be adjusted after it’s installed. Once it's mounted the fixture can rotate a full 180 degrees.
NO FLICKERING
Q) Which desk lights turn on instantly with no flickering?
A) All of the fluorescent light fixtures in this section turn on without flickering because they all have instant start electronic ballasts. The Xenon Low Voltage Task Lights, of course, turn on instantly.
TYPE of LIGHT
Q) Which desk light produces light that is similar to incandescent light?
A) The Xenon Low Voltage Task Lights use xenon lamps (light bulbs) which are incandescent light sources with a little bit of xenon gas introduced into the glass envelope to help lengthen the life of the lamp. The Microfluorescent T4 Light Fixtures produce light that is similar to incandescent light when the T4 lamp used has a Color Temperature of 3000K.
CONTROLLED by ONE SWITCH
Q) Which grouping of desk lights can be installed so that they all can be controlled by one light switch?
A) When several desk lights are being installed the Xenon Low Voltage Task Lights, the Microfluorescent T4 Light Fixtures, the Fluorescent T5 Low-Profile Light Fixtures, the Fluorescent T5 SlimLite XL Light Fixtures, and the Fluorescent Thin-Inch Fixtures can all be controlled by only one light switch. Only a group of Fluorescent T5 Swivel Sticks cannot be controlled by one light switch.
DIMMABLE
Q) Which desk light is dimmable?
A) The Xenon Low Voltage Task Lights are dimmable. None of the fluorescent desk lights can be dimmed.
COOLEST
Q) Which desk light is the coolest?
A) All of the fluorescent desk lights give off the least amount of heat. Both the xenon and fluorescent desk lights are cooler than halogen desk lights.
HOTTEST
Q) Which desk light is the hottest?
A) Any desk light that uses line voltage (120 volts) halogen lighting is the hottest type of desk light. It is for that reason that we do not sell any fixtures of this type.
MOST ENERGY EFFICIENT
Q) Which desk light is the most energy efficient?
A) All of the fluorescent desk lights are the most energy efficient to operate. Fluorescent fixtures are always more efficient than incandescent fixtures including xenon fixtures.

VALUABLE DESK LAMP INFORMATION

Our Desk Lights
Our desk lights come in a variety of sizes, lamp wattages, and with two different light sources - xenon and fluorescent.
The Functionality of Desk Lights
Desk lights are by their very nature quite functional by providing very good and sometimes badly needed task lighting. Desk lighting can make any desk area in an office, a kitchen, a den, or a hospital nurses' station a brighter, safer, and more pleasant place to perform tasks.
The Aesthetics of Desk Lights
The light provided by desk lights has the ability to give both a professional look and the look of warmth by providing another “layer of light” to the work space. When desk lights are used properly they can give the space a look as though a professional may have been involved with the lighting design.
The Light Sources In Desk Lights
Desk lights may use xenon, halogen, fluorescent, or even traditional incandescent light sources. Desk lights with any of these light sources might provide a good deal of light, a modest amount of light, or just a hint of light. It is sometimes a good idea to control the desk lights with a dimmer switch since this can provide a good deal of lighting flexibility. This cannot usually be done with fluorescent light sources but fluorescent lighting is generally the most efficient in providing a given amount of light. Fluorescent light sources are also the coolest of all the light sources.
Where Can Desk Lights Be Used?
Because of its small size a desk light simply cannot provide good ambient lighting for a large space. Under cabinet desk lights can be used very successfully wherever there are cabinets over a desk and a need for good task lighting on that desk.
Where Should Desk Lights Be Placed?
Under cabinet desk lights should be installed at or near the front of the cabinet to which it is attached. Your contractor may insist that you install it near the back wall but we suggest that you insist that it be installed as close to the face of the cabinet as possible. This position will provide the best and safest task lighting for your desk.
