LED Floor Lamps – A Modern Take on a Design Classic
Place it down, plug it in, push the switch and you have light – and plenty of it. Is there an easier way to illuminate a room than with a floor lamp? Combined with modern LED technology, floor lamps are available in a variety of designs – from retro to industrial, to vintage and tripods.
Why do I need an LED floor lamp?
So you can read books and newspapers
To work
But, more importantly, for relaxing
To create a comfortable ambience
To create pockets of light
To divide up the room
To support general lighting
And, last but not least, to liven up a room
So, are you convinced? Yes? Well, let’s get started. LED floor lamps come in a wide variety of shapes and styles and can be used in nearly every room.
Which rooms can you get LED floor lamps for?
You can, of course, place your LED floor lamp wherever you like in your home - except for the bathroom or other moisture-prone rooms, because they simply don’t have the appropriate IP code. Otherwise, it’s really just a case of having an available socket nearby to be able to plug the LED floor lamp in to.
LED floor lamps are very popular in the following rooms:
Can you get LED floor lamps with motion detectors?
Granted, when we hear the term motion detector, we usually think of the garden and the neighbour’s cat sneaking around, triggering the light - but floor lamps with a motion detector? Yes, they do exist and are a convenient functionality for offices.
Indoor lights use presence detectors which recognise if a person is present using a fine grid and can be triggered by something as small like a person typing on a keyboard. You can easily find out whether the LED floor lamp you're considering has a motion detector by checking the product details.
Can you get LED floor lamps with reading lamps?
Yes, most uplighters come with a reading lamp, which is attached directly to the frame of the lamp. Due to the flexibility of the reading arm, the light can be easily positioned in any direction, so that you can enjoy the best light for reading.
Can you get LED floor lamps with dimmers?
Many LED floor lamps are now conveniently equipped with built-in dimmers. This means that you don’t need to spend too long deliberating the brightness, because you can make it darker or brighter whenever you want and as often as you want.
Our tip: Many LED floor lamps used as an uplighter have both a main light and a reading lamp and feature two dimmers which can be operated separately.
How can you tell if an LED floor lamp has a dimmer? Find the “Dimmer” column in the product details and if it states “Yes”, then your question is answered.
Which designs do LED table lamps come in?
LED floor lamps either come with built-in LEDs or with a replaceable LED light bulb which allows for a hige range of designs.
Modern, slim designs are just as easy to find as LED floor lamps with a classic lampshade or stylish Scandinavian tripod lamps. Let your interior design dreams run wild when choosing your LED floor lamp!
