Juraf Bedside Reading Light

[DaleKramer]

Dale,

The rough spot is at the top of the post that the mounting clips are attached to. There is a small rim that had a piece of plastic sticking out and snagged my finger when I was first setting it up. I believe I can smooth it using an emory board.

I'm not giving up on the light. I liked the pictures on your site of the light being attached to a portion of the headboard. However, our headboard is a very heavy four poster so I'm not sure I could find a spot and the nightstand doesn't have a ridge on the top large enough to attach either. I don't want to keep bending the neck and would like to find a way that I could swing it out of the way without having to re-bend it each time.

I'll keep working with it and will report back. I do like the light and it is bright enough that I won't get eye strain trying to read in the dark. One question...there is a little red light on the plug showing that the light is plugged in. Should I unplug every time I shut the light off? Or, is it like the red light on a surge protector showing that it is getting power?

Alice,

Yes, use an emory board to remove the molding flash.   Sorry it was not removed, we will keep a closer eye on it.

The red light is just an indicator that there is AC volts at your outlet.  It is on all the time.  If it bothers you, you may put some tape over it.

If you send us some pictures of your bed and side table we may have some suggestions for you.  purchases att juraf dott com

Any suggestions on "taming a giraffe neck"

I support the base with one hand and keep it in place. Then I dont worry too much about how much I'm manipulating the neck and light. I know, after a few times, where I want the light and aim for that spot and shape.

And one thing I forgot at first was to tilt/turn the light itself....at first I mostly manipulated the neck but the light could angle and tilt as well, to light the whole page.

And if that doesnt work, I feed it grapes.
