Four Small Desk Lamp Options That Light Brightly


A traditional small desk lamp will only put out a low level of light. If you need more or brighter light, look for these features that provide quantity and quality. You can either update the small lamp you already have or find a new one without sacrificing style or space.

Get Big Light From Your Small Desk Lamp

  1. Replace your existing bulb with a high output LED (light-emitting diode) bulb. LED light bulbs offer superior lighting levels with lower power requirements. They also offer up to 100 times the life of traditional bulbs.
  2. Replace your existing bulb with a halogen bulb, which is brighter. Halogen bulbs offer a wider spectrum of light.
  3. Fluorescent desk lamps provide a significantly higher light level than traditional bulbs. They also release UV, which simulates sun light.
  4. Strip LED desk lamps use a long LED light bulb. These produce more light and a greater light range than even standard LED light bulbs.
