A LED bulb suspended in a magnetic field above a wooden base, rotating 360 degrees continuously and silently with nothing touching it. Power reaches the bulb by wireless transmission from the base, which is why there is no cord to the bulb and no contact point. The base has a touch button for on and off. If power drops, the bulb settles safely onto the base rather than dropping off the desk. The design is deliberately minimalist, an Edison-style bulb and a plain wood block, so it works on a desk that already has a lot happening. Best fit: desk and shelf centerpieces, gifts where the reaction matters, and rooms that need one warm light source rather than another lamp.
Pros
- Wireless power transmission means no cord and no contact with the bulb
- Rotates 360 degrees continuously and silently
- Bulb settles safely onto the base if power drops instead of falling
- Minimalist wood and glass design instead of an RGB gaming aesthetic
Cons
- Balancing the bulb into the magnetic field takes a patient first attempt
Frequently asked questions
How does the bulb get power without a cord?
The base transmits power wirelessly through the same field that holds the bulb up, so there is no wire and no contact point.
Is it hard to get floating?
The first balance takes a few minutes to find the sweet spot. After that it stays in place unless the base is bumped.
What happens if the power goes out?
The bulb settles down onto the base rather than falling off the desk.
Does it make noise while rotating?
No. There is no motor or bearing in contact with the bulb, so rotation is silent.
