Our advice Buying Guide
Once primarily used for camping, cordless lamps can dress up a dark corner or put light where you need it without having to deal with extension cords or rearranging the furniture to find a wall outlet. While battery life and brightness were once an issue with cordless lights, LED bulbs and modern batteries make them a practical solution to decorating challenges.
The lamps can be simple – comparable to camping lights, or they can be lovely lamps that are indistinguishable from any other lamp – except for the absence of the trailing electrical cord. Thanks to battery improvements, using a cordless lamp doesn’t mean sitting in the dark as the batteries grow weaker, it means being able to place the light where you want it.
How to pick the best cordless table lamp?
Some things to look for when purchasing a cordless table lamp are:
- Type of bulb used. LED lights are the brightest, but not always the best if you are looking for indirect, soft light.
- UL compliant. Even though they use batteries instead of cords, these lamps still use a type of electricity. The UL label lets you know that they have undergone appropriate testing.
- Battery type. If you plan to use your lamp a lot, look for one that will use rechargeable batteries. Although you will eventually have to replace them, you will still save a great deal of money when compared to purchasing single-use batteries.
- Fits with your décor or has a design that you like. No matter how convenient an appliance might be, if it has a jarring appearance in the location where you need the light, you will be less than satisfied with it.
What are some examples of cordless table lamps?
- Linden Table Lamp. A classically styled glass table lamp, with conservative beige shade. The chrome metal base gives good stability. It can easily compete with any corded lamp for style – the only thing missing is the cord.
- Cordless Lamps styled like candle holders. Say goodbye to the smoke, fumes and dripping wax with these lovely lamps. Use as occasional lamps to brighten up a dark corner or as the main attraction for a centerpiece. They are perfect for setting the table for that romantic dinner for two.
- Tiffany Battery Operated Table Lamp. Want something with a little more color and pizzazz? Then try this battery-operated table lamp with a Tiffany shade. Use a soft light for a gentle glow or a brighter LED bulb to add sparkle to a room.
What are the benefits of battery-operated cordless table lamps?
Battery-operated cordless table lamps free your lighting from the electric cord tether. Put an end to dealing with wobbly plug outlets or running extension cords behind furniture just so you can have some light when sitting in your favorite reading chair. Avoid putting up with glare on computer or television screens just because the only possible light in the room creates a glare on the screen. Cordless table lamps give you the freedom of placing your table lamp where you need or want it – not where industry standard plugins are dictated.

OUR ADVICE Questions & Answers
As long as you pick a correct lamp, it will be fine. A standard computer screen can produce anywhere between 20-25 foot candles (FC). As you will be looking back and forth from your screen, you want to keep the contrast ratio of light at around 3-to-1. This means that if the screen produces 20-25 FC, the table lamp should be at 60-75 FC.
Are lamps with adjustable head and arm much better than the standard type?
Yes, especially for the eyes. This feature allows you to adjust glare and shadowing to your liking.
Safety is an important issue for me. Are cordless table lamps safe?
Even more so than standard table lamps. First of all, consider getting yourself a LED lamp, as the lamp heads of these stay cool to the touch, and there is no risk of starting a fire or burning yourself. Of course, the most important benefit of using a cordless table lamp is the fact you can’t trip on the cable!
How to choose the size of my new cordless table lamp?
The most important factor is the size of your desk, as the lamp should be proportionate to it. For larger desks, a larger lamp is appropriate. A desk lamp should have a 30-degree beam spread, able to highlight your whole workplace. As a rule of thumb, the cordless table lamp shouldn’t measure more than half of the height of the object it will stand on. Otherwise, the light just won’t distribute properly, and it will fail to illuminate the space.
Talking about height, is there an optimal height at which the lamp should be placed?
Yes. Ideally, the middle of the lampshade should be around the eye-line of a person sitting in the room – be it on the bed, a sofa or the chair. This way, the light will be gentle and won’t distract you from your activities.
What are the most popular types of desk lamps?
The most popular are adjustable arm desk lamps, gooseneck desk lamps, clip-on, tree (multi-arm), magnified, organizer desk lamps and banker/piano desk lamps. Look them up to decide which shape and functionality are optimal for your needs.
I like to change the design of my room on a regular basis. Won’t a cordless table lamp be a rather boring addition?
Not at all. Table lamps come in all shapes and sizes, and even after your purchase, they are easy to refresh. First, think about the finish – from antique to modern, there are plenty of table lamp styles out there. But even after you get yourself a table lamp, a simple change of the lampshade can totally change its vibe – one day it can be a translucent lampshade of a soft colour, and the next day a Tiffany-style, classic beauty!
