Desktop Light
A desktop light, also known as a table lamp or task lamp, is a portable lighting fixture designed for use on desks, tables, and other flat surfaces. It provides focused illumination for reading, writing, crafting, and other close-up tasks.
Material
Desktop lights are constructed from a variety of materials, impacting both aesthetics and functionality:
- Metal: Commonly aluminum, steel, or brass. Offers durability and a wide range of finishes. Often used for the base and adjustable arms.
- Plastic: Lightweight and cost-effective, often used for shades and bases. Can be molded into various shapes and colors.
- Glass: Frequently used for shades to diffuse light and create a softer glow.
- Wood: Provides a warmer aesthetic and is often used for the base.
- Acrylic: A transparent plastic alternative to glass, offering shatter resistance.
Purpose
The primary purpose of a desktop light is to provide task lighting. This means delivering bright, focused illumination to a specific area, reducing eye strain and improving visibility for detailed work. They supplement ambient room lighting.
Function
- Illumination: Provides direct light to a work surface.
- Adjustability: Many models feature adjustable arms, shades, and heads to direct light precisely where needed.
- Dimming: Some lights offer adjustable brightness levels to suit different tasks and preferences.
- Color Temperature Control: Advanced models may allow adjustment of light color from warm white to cool white.
- USB Charging: Increasingly, desktop lights include USB ports for charging mobile devices.
Usage Scenarios
- Home Office: Reading, writing, computer work.
- Study: Homework, research, detailed reading.
- Crafting/Hobbies: Sewing, painting, model building.
- Reading: Providing focused light for books and documents.
- Bedside Table: Used as a reading light or for low-level ambient illumination.
Common Types
- Architect Lamps (Swing Arm Lamps): Characterized by a flexible, adjustable arm allowing a wide range of motion and positioning. Often used for drafting and detailed work.
- LED Desk Lamps: Utilize energy-efficient LED bulbs, offering long lifespan and low heat output. Commonly feature touch controls and dimming functions.
- Gooseneck Lamps: Feature a flexible neck that can be easily bent and shaped to direct light.
- Banker Lamps: Traditional style with a green glass shade and a brass base. Provide a warm, diffused light.
- Clamp Lamps: Designed to attach to shelves, desks, or other surfaces, saving space.
- Smart Desk Lamps: Offer app control, voice control, and integration with smart home systems. Often include features like color changing and scheduling.
Desktop lights fall under several potential classifications depending on their specific characteristics. Here's a breakdown of relevant HS codes based on the provided information:
- 9405214010: This code covers luminaires and lighting fittings, specifically electric table, desk, bedside or floor-standing luminaires designed for use solely with light-emitting diode (LED) light sources, of base metal, and of brass. This would apply to a desktop light made of brass and using LED bulbs. (Chapter 94: Furnishings; lighting signs, prefabricated buildings; Chapter 94, Heading 05: Luminaires and lighting fittings; Chapter 94, Subheading 2140: Electric table, desk, bedside or floor-standing luminaires; Chapter 94, Subheading 214010: Of base metal, of brass). The total tax rate is 58.7%.
- 9405214020: This code also covers luminaires and lighting fittings, specifically electric table, desk, bedside or floor-standing luminaires designed for use solely with light-emitting diode (LED) light sources, of base metal, but not of brass. This would apply to a desktop light made of a material other than brass and using LED bulbs. (Chapter 94: Furnishings; lighting signs, prefabricated buildings; Chapter 94, Heading 05: Luminaires and lighting fittings; Chapter 94, Subheading 2140: Electric table, desk, bedside or floor-standing luminaires; Chapter 94, Subheading 214020: Of base metal, other). The total tax rate is 58.7%.
- 8513104000: If the desktop light is a portable electric lamp designed to function by its own source of energy (e.g., batteries) and is not specifically classified as lighting equipment of heading 8512, this code applies. This would cover battery-powered desktop lights. (Chapter 85: Electrical machinery and equipment; Chapter 85, Heading 13: Portable electric lamps; Chapter 85, Subheading 10: Lamps; Chapter 85, Subheading 1040: Other). The total tax rate is 33.5%.
Please note that the correct HS code depends on the material composition (specifically whether it is brass or another base metal) and the power source of the desktop light.
