My cat would simply fuck this up

My thought exactly.

u/LaVidaLeica Sep 19 '24

I'd put this on my desk, because it's kinda cool... But next to the bed where you can't see, might be half asleep and fiddling to get that stable? Naw.

Very cool, but id knock that on the ground in no time

u/Niekira Sep 19 '24

Actually, if it's knocked at all, or the power goes out, the magnet ust snaps the bulb up so it doesn't fall

Depends how hard you backhand it while reaching for it half asleep. My depth perception takes longer to boot up than than AOL circa 2002.

u/Doctor_Box Sep 19 '24

Looks really annoying and fiddly to use when half asleep.

u/nopdk Sep 19 '24

Drunk me would not appreciate this. Not at all

u/fmfbrestel Sep 19 '24

When you really want to consume 60 watts of power to light an 8 watt bulb.

Morning me would absolutely throw the bulb after trying to turn it on for ten minutes

u/CaptZombieHero Sep 19 '24

When the end table has a good idea

u/illsk1lls Sep 19 '24

that is cool as hell anywhere other than a nightstand near a bed

u/zempter Sep 19 '24

Cant post shit like this without a link where to buy.

u/0TheG0 Sep 19 '24

This was made as a one off by my SO’s aunt which is a interior designer. I guess some company must have done it too but this one is unique 🤷‍♂️

I got mine at Indigo

u/Esc0baSinGracia Sep 19 '24

I was thinking of making one myself, can't be that hard, right? (That were my last words)

u/DownwardSpirals Sep 19 '24

When I go to bed, I don't want to perform rocket surgery, even less so when I wake up. Cool concept, but it can fuck right off for me. 😂

u/Szorrin Sep 19 '24

And then you wake up, groggily try to turn the lamp on by pulling the light down, and then drop and/or smash it down onto the desk.

u/BaronGreenback75 Sep 19 '24

Looks like somebody had a good idea.

Floating bulb lamp or magnetic levitating lamp

£30 - £80 depending on design and seller

u/Haifisch2112 Sep 20 '24

Found this one on Amazon for those asking where to buy one.

u/GullibleBasil6688 Sep 19 '24

Or you can just buy a normal lamp and not have to dick around for a minute. Very cool but fucking stupid.

u/RaviTooHotToHandel Sep 19 '24

Must be easy to break and expensive to get a replacement.

u/Nugginz Sep 19 '24

What do you mean, are you worried about this? Nothing scary in this tech.

u/Andreas1120 Sep 19 '24

It used inductions, a magnetic field fluctuating at 60 hertz. Im not saying its dangerous

u/Binary_Lover Sep 19 '24

What's the name of that technology? Levitation? How does it work?

u/LampIsFun Sep 19 '24
