This range ensures comfortable reading without straining the eyes. A colour temperature of 2700 to 3000 Kelvin offers a warm and relaxing atmosphere. The overall lamp height should be 35 to 45 cm so the light source sits just above your shoulder when seated in bed. On a standard bedside table (50 to 60 cm high), this guarantees optimal lighting without causing inconvenient shadows. For children’s rooms, choose compact models (20 to 30 cm tall) and low-intensity bulbs. Looking for a wall-mounted alternative?
