Review: Oak Leaf Dimmable Portable LED Desk Lamp

December 7, 2015 Posted by Bill Loguidice Review No Comments

I’m fortunate to get to review many products. As such, I can usually be a bit picky about what I choose to review. If a product doesn’t have some type of unique feature or other selling point, I’m probably not going to be interested in reviewing it. Since you’re reading this review, as you might expect, the Oak Leaf Dimmable Portable LED Desk Lamp is in fact one of those products with a unique feature.

It’s great as a desk lamp that’s always plugged in, but also has the wonderful flexibility of being able to be unplugged and used wherever else you might need it. While you get a maximum of about four hours of usage from a typical eight hour charging cycle (the replaceable battery is good for about 400 charging cycles), the fact that it can be powered over USB with the included cable means you’ll probably have a lot more flexibility than that since USB ports are just about everywhere these days.

You get the piano black lamp itself, a USB cable, an AC adapter that the USB cable can plug into, and a small instruction sheet. The top portion of the lamp can be moved up or down 180 degrees, and also swivels 225 degrees. The small base is also able to rotate 90 degrees if you want to use the Oak Leaf Dimmable Portable LED Desk Lamp as a stick light. Of course it all folds down for easy transport and even has a mounting hole for even greater flexibility if you wanted to mount it on a wall. In short, there are few situations where this light couldn’t find a use.

Operation is simple, with a single button that lets you set the light level to low, medium, or high, as well as of course off. At its brightest, the Oak Leaf Dimmable Portable LED Desk Lamp can easily light a sizable portion of a work surface.

From its build quality to its flexibility as both a desk and portable lamp, it’s easy to recommend the Oak Leaf Dimmable Portable LED Desk Lamp. As you would expect, the low power warm white LED light source (66 LEDs for 3000K – 3500K brightness) is rated to last over 25 years, and, paired with a 24 month manufacturer warranty, should give you plenty of peace of mind that this product was built to last.

Thanks to Better Home & Garden for the review unit.
