Battery capacity for battery-powered models (see Main Power Source).
Theoretically, higher capacity allows for greater autonomy, but in practice, not everything is so simple. At a minimum, the actual charge time will depend on the power of the light source and its power consumption. For example, a conventional model with an 1800 mAh battery will definitely have a longer operating time on a full charge than a table lamp of similar brightness and power with a 1000 mAh battery. But exactly how much higher the autonomy will be is impossible to say for sure. To assess autonomy, it is better to focus on more mundane characteristics - first of all, on the directly stated maximum operating time specified in the technical documentation.
Color temperature of the light emitted by the lamp. Specified only for models with built-in LEDs (see "Light Source") as different bulbs with various characteristics can be installed in the socket.
This parameter directly determines the shade of the visible color. The physical meaning of this is that as the color temperature increases, this shade becomes more
"cold", shifting from yellow to blue. Here are some examples of color temperature for clarity:
— 1500 – 2000 K — candle flame;
— 2800 K — 100 W incandescent lamp (
warm light);
— 4000 K — fluorescent
daylight white lamp (this kind of light can already be perceived as cool);
— 5000 K — midday sun light;
— 5500 K — shade from white clouds at noon;
And so on, leaning towards blue, cooler shades.
It should be noted that the choice based on this parameter depends not only on personal preferences and design considerations but also on the overall purpose of the lamp. For example, high color temperature (from 5000 K) is considered optimal for reading, medium (around 4000 – 5000 K) is comfortable for mathematical calculations, working with documents, and other tasks requiring concentration, while soft warm light up to 4000 K is good for relaxation and creating a cozy atmosphere. Therefore, many lamps are designed with
adjustable color temperature.
