Is it bright enough for studying? I am currently using a 60W desk lamp. How is the brightness compared to the regular lamp?

The lamp is very bright but covers only a a relatively small spot and the light is too yellowish...makes me dazzy for reading at night, I would suggest getting a lamp with a larger cover/shade.

Yes, it is bright enough for studying. All three of my children are using it an no complaints.

It's super bright, white light. And sense it's an LED it doesn't put off much heat.

Yes. It is perfect for spot lighting work spaces. The 5W LED bulb included in this lamp is considered equivalent to a 60W incandescent, but it feels brighter to me.

I use it to study-quite bright enough and not as harsh as a traditional bulb.

I use it on the desk in my office reading small print reports (10-11font) and have no problems reading forExtended periods. Best thing is the lamp does not get warm afterExtendedPeriods like halogens.

Its more of a directional lamp. The room wouldnt be dark but I doubt it would be the effect your looking for. I use it over the couch similar to task lighting.

I like mine. It's not too bright nor too dull. For the price I'd suggest trying it as you'll never have too much light..

No. It is bright enough to read a book if you hold the book close by the light but not bright enough for a desk lamp.

Yes, it's bright enough to read by, if it isn't located too far from the page. I have mine about 30" above my computer keyboard and it is quite bright. It gets on the hot-ish end of warm, but not so hot you can't touch it. And it uses batteries somewhat quickly, so I recommend either Enoloop rechargeables or the accessory power supply, depending on your placement needs. I think of this as wide-angle task lighting, not room lighting, so if you have dark corners, it helps a lot; for illuminating a dark room, not so much. HTH.

I think it's probably one of the better lights for a cubicle environment. It may still be a bright spot for someone sitting across from it though. I propped up thin piece of cardboard to cut the glare the person me might see while still being able to benefit from the brightness.

I think the answer is somewhere in the reviews and my guess is at least a hundred. I use it in my bedroom to work in bed and it is plenty bright for that. If I look directly into it I am blinded for a few moments. Unless you want to light an entire room, this light should be bright enough for reading, crafting, computering, etc.

no, not really, the lamp is bright enough to light the keyboard on your lap top so you can type in the dark, but the "square area" of illumination is limited, if you are reading a paperback, maybe. and no the light has only the one setting, on and off.

It's not meant to illuminate a room by itself, if that helps to answer your question. Obviously, the higher the lumens/watts. the brighter it will be. Hope that helps?

Dim lights. It works fine in my living room, circa 150 square feet, with one 100-watt bulb. The image was barely visible in my Sunday school classroom with a ceiling full of flourescent lights on. I had to turn the lights off and let the room just be lit by light coming in the windows. So no, I don't recommend it for use in a brightly-lit room. This projector appears to be intended to watch movies with lights out or dim more than to make business/classroom presentations. It's usable if you can dim the lights or turn them off, but not ideal.

I don't think it's bright enough to read by. It's really just a nice, low light that brightens up any dark areas you may have in the room. I originally bought it exactly for that purpose but liked it so much anyway that I decided to keep it lol! Keep looking if you really want something to read by but if you want a nice, trendy looking lamp, this is a good buy =)

I wouldn't say I have a similar problem but I have found that using this lamp on a daily basis has not caused me any eye fatigue. I had originally purchased a different light that was 10,000 lux that was extremely bright and uncomfortable to be around and had to be returned. I am very happy with my purchase of this lamp that you are currently looking at. It's got an adjustable light setting if you're concerned about it being too bright on the high setting.

I'd say its much closer to 60W. Plenty of light for typical indoor use, but not super-bright.

I use it as a bedside reading lamp. The light intensity can be controlled, and I don't keep it anywhere near as bright as it could get. While it throws off plenty of light, I think you would have to be reading/writing relatively close to the lamp, since it's not large. My favorite lamp.

No, it is not bright enough. My mother has the same problem and we haven't been able to find anything that helps at this point. We purchased this lamp and she still says there is not enough light.

Very few desk lamps have 300W bulbs - that is awfully bright. Also the lamp head is only about 17 inches above the base and aimed down. So, no, it wouldn't be as bright as a 300W bulb, but it is much brighter than most comparable LED lamps. It also offers a variety of color temperature choices that aid clarity.

I question whether the lamp will last that long. However, I believe two poeple can study with it if you are properly situated
