Touch Lamps

What is a Touch Lamp?

A touch lamp is a table lamp that is activated when a person touches the lamp. It works by being sensitive to static electricity (called capacitance) that every person has on their skin. Touch lamps are typically used in bedrooms.

Tips On Touch Lamps

• It is important that you do not use globes which are rated above the touch lamp's maximum Wattage.
• The touch lamp should match your decor. Determine if that is modern or classic.
• Most touch lamps are positioned in bedrooms, so ensure that you can easily reach the touch lamp and that it is not glaring into your eyes when you are lying down. This will depend on the height of your bedside table.
• If you are going to have a touch lamp on either side of the bed, then they should be matching.
• The globe within the touch lamp should be warm white.
