PHIVE CL-1 Architect Desk Lamp, LED Clamp on Desk Light with Metal Swing Arm, Eye-Caring Dimmable Drafting Table Lamp, Highly Adjustable Architect Task Light for Home/Office, Silver

Although a bit expensive for what it is, this is a great little lamp, especially for modelers/crafters. Even with an overhead light using (2) 100w equivalent LED bulbs, my room still had dark areas around the sides, and my head would throw shadows across my work space. I was looking for a swing-arm LED lap that I could add to my desk and after viewing a number of cheaper options on Amazon, I decided to go with the Phive based on the glowing reviews.The lamp works great and has almost all of the adjustability that I need for my space. The only thing I would consider lacking is the head movement is limited to swivel and rotate. There is no up/down (pitch) control which could be a problem if you need to get the light focused in on something. However, after mounting the light to the back of my desk and not the side, it works fine for me. The mounting piece is the only other real downside, simply because of how large it is. It is able to clamp to a 3" thick desk, but on a thinner desk, especially one with a "back' like mine, you can't get it tight without warping the back. However, to solve this I flipped the mount upside down so that the clamping part fits onto the lip of the glass top on my desk without interfering with the wood "back".The mounting piece has holes on the top and bottom allowing you to flip it, however, the "lock" only exists when mounting it upright. If you put the second o-ring (included but was not installed on my unit) onto the shaft of the light fixture, it sits in the mounting piece very tightly and does not need the locking piece at all. Hopefully, my included pictures make this more clear.A great light overall, very bright and only slightly blue-er than daylight. A tad expensive, but well built.

I wanted a versatile lamp which I could easily move to various locations to add lighting for various activities and I found the PHIVE CL-1 LED was the perfect addition. The PHIVE LED has an one-touch functional dimmer switch which easily allows you to change lighting intensity as needed. At my desk I set the LED to bright for reading, but it also works great at the card table in our living room which needed a bit more light, but the intensity is set down to give just enough lighting to enjoy the game. My wife liked the light so well that she asked me to purchase another for her to use while playing her piano. The PHIVE comes fully assembled with a two section electrical cord. I love this feature as it allows to leave the lamp in a set location, but detach the cord when not in use so it isn't a trip hazard. This is especially useful if you set up the lamp in the middle of a room; simply detach the cord in the middle and reconnect when needed. The dimmer switch is located on top the LED and adjusts lighting intensity simply by holding down on the switch to adjust the lighting up or down. This light is a bit pricier than some other options, but I found it is worth the price because of its ease of use, functionality, versatility and superb quality.

Despite not being an architect, I wanted a nice LED lamp for my desk when I'm working at night and liked the idea of a light that could be clamped on the edge of the desk to save some desk space. After a couple of months, I can say that this thing is quite sturdy, well-made, and exceedingly bright. The articulation is smooth and steady - the lamp doesn't move at all once set into a position. The arms themselves are nice and solid, and I don't have any worries about them snapping or otherwise failing.Please note that this is an EXTREMELY bright light. I majorly underestimated how bright this thing would be. Ultimately it's not a problem - I simply wrapped a thick piece of beige colored paper, which made the light both dimmer and warmer, but keep this in mind if you're hoping for a softer, warmer task light. If that's what you're looking for, this definitely isn't the light for you unless you're willing to make some minimal modifications as I did. If you're needing an extremely bright, white light, then this is the lamp for you.I do wish there was variable brightness with the light, but I knew that wasn't an included feature and won't hold that against the product - simply a wish-list of sorts for an improved product. Beyond that, I have absolutely no complaints about this lamp. It's served me well thus far. Overall a strong recommendation.
