Some thirty years ago, if someone started talking about an LED lamp on a clothespin, he would probably at least be mistaken for a visionary. Today, perhaps, there is not a single house in which such lamps would not be found. And it would seem that everything has been known about them for a long time, but is it all?

Was there a cord?

Compact devices without a cord are often found in the store, the so-called LED lamps on a clothespin and on batteries. It would seem that this is an absolutely unprofitable purchase, since you can go broke on batteries alone. But no! These lamps are very popular. Compared to old Soviet devices, they can work for several weeks without changing the battery.

The advantage of these clip-on LED lights is undoubtedly clear:

1. They are not tied to a specific place in the room, that is, to an outlet.
2. They can be worn throughout the apartment, while the wires will not follow them.
3. Such lamps are very convenient on the school desk againbecause the cord will not interfere, and the table itself can be placed away from the outlet.
4. One of the main advantages is that such lamps do not consume electricity, which means that you only pay for the purchase of batteries.
5. The LED clip-on light can be attached to the shelf above the table and will not take up space on the table surface.
6. By the way, the light in such devices is uniform until the battery is completely dead - then they do not slowly fade, but simply go out immediately. Until then, they are lit as usual, so always have a supply of batteries in case.
7. And one more plus of desktop LED rechargeable lamps on a clothespin is that almost all of them are equipped with an auto-off function. It is certainly convenient when you use such a lamp as a night light.

As we said above, the LED clothespin lamp is used as a night light or table lamp. It can also be used to divide the room into zones. Due to the fact that it has a temporary fixation, such a lamp can be very easily attached to any shelf or edge of furniture. In addition, such lighting fixtures almost always have a movable tripod that can rotate 360 degrees.

What lamps are there?

• batteries operated or corded;
• in metal or plastic case;
• LED lights onclothespin with a flexible leg.
• with glass shades.

In addition, these lamps differ in the shape of the shades - they can be rectangular, spherical, elongated, and so on.

How to distinguish the LED lamp

How to choose?

First of all, decide for what purpose you are purchasing it. If it will be a model of an LED desk lamp on a clothespin for a student, then choose models that give an even soft light and sufficient brightness. If you choose a device for use as a night light, then the light should be soft, slightly diffused. The ideal option in such lamps would be dimming and auto-off.

On the school table and bedside table, choose lamps with a cone-shaped shade. It will provide the widest possible illumination of the room. Leave lamps with drop-shaped or tube-shaped shades for spot lighting, for example, in the kitchen or in the living room.

When purchasing a plastic LED lamp for a child, pay attention only to high-quality models so that the body does not catch fire. And it is better to purchase a model in a metal case or a special children's lamp, which is made of unbreakable plastic. Also for schoolchildren, a lamp on a clothespin with a flexible leg is best suited. The child can easily adapt it for himself.

And for children's rooms, manufacturers began to produce LED lamps in the form of flashlights, fairy-tale characters, stars, garlands and the like.
