The Ideal Lux Pivot 289168 is a modern white LED table lamp designed for desks, studies and home offices where adjustable task lighting is useful. Its slim aluminium frame, compact base and linear diffuser give it a clean, understated appearance without taking up excessive desk space. Integrated LED lighting means there is no separate bulb to purchase, while touch dimming and selectable 3000K, 4000K and 6000K colour temperatures make it possible to adapt the light for different activities. The adjustable design can be positioned from approximately 43 cm to 76 cm high, helping direct light towards paperwork, reading material or a computer workspace. An opal polycarbonate diffuser softens the appearance of the LED source while maintaining direct task illumination.
Pivot has a minimalist profile finished in matt white, making it easy to combine with contemporary desks and workspaces. The main frame is made from matt painted aluminium, while the base has a plastic covering that incorporates the lighting controls.
The long adjustable diffuser uses a satin opal polycarbonate screen. This conceals the individual LED components and gives the illuminated section a cleaner appearance. At approximately 17 cm wide and 41 cm deep, the lamp has a relatively compact footprint while its adjustable structure can reach up to approximately 76 cm high.
The Pivot uses a non-replaceable integrated 7W SMD LED module, producing a source luminous flux of 800 lumens. Its direct light emission is particularly suited to desk and task lighting, and the adjustable diffuser helps position the light where it is needed.
A built-in touch dimmer provides brightness adjustment without requiring a separate dimmer. The lamp also includes a CCT selector with three colour temperature settings: 3000K warm white, 4000K neutral white and 6000K cool white. This provides useful flexibility between softer lighting and clearer task-oriented illumination.
The LED has a colour rendering index above CRI 90 and a rated life of 25,000 hours. Power is supplied through the included separate electronic driver and plug-in cable, so the lamp is designed for straightforward use on an indoor desk or table.

Understanding LED colour temperature and the Kelvin scale
Colour temperature 2000K to 3000K, the light produced is often referred to as a "warm white", "soft white", occasionally called a "candle white". It ranges from orange-ish to yellow-ish white in appearance. This kind of light is attractive, enjoyable, comfortable and relaxing.
Colour temperature 3100K to 4500K, the light produced is often referred to as a "neutral white", "bright white" or "natural white". Light sources within this range will emit a more neutral white light and may even have a slightly blue tint. This kind of light is bright, vibrant and clean appearing.

Colour temperature 4600K and above, the light produced is often referred to as a "cool white", "pure white" or "day white". Light sources in this range will have a blue-ish white tint to them. The higher the number, the more blueish it will appear. This kind of light will appear crisp, invigorating and energetic.
