We knew LED lamps had a long life expectancy, but the new LED desk lamp from Jake Dyson is promising users a ridiculous forty year life span! Thanks to space-age heatsink technology. This miraculous new lamp claims to provide over 37 years of illumination. And you’ll have to shell out $860 for one of these! That’s right folks, the CSYS LED Task Light costs almost 900 bucks. In the long run it might prove to be the best bargain if you adjust the price for inflation forty years hence.
Featuring touch-sensitive dimmer controls, the CSYS LED Task Light allows users to control the brightness of the lamp as well as the amount of light being emitted via intelligent controls. Since the design also incorporates element from the structure of construction cranes, this Jake Dyson lets users adjust the lamp along three axes and create either a large pool of light by raising the lamp or focus the light on a particular spot by lowering the lamp.
The clever long-life lamp, uses in the CSYS LED Task Light, incorporated heat pipe technology that passively conducts heat away from the LEDs and prolongs the life of the lamp. Developed for use in satellites and microprocessors, heat pipe technology provides the lamp with its astonishing efficiency and also refines the thermal management systems within the design. The dimmable LED task light challenges the traditional concept of what the mechanical movement of existing task lights can and cannot do and uses innovative positioning to make the aluminum, copper and polycarbonate plastic construction of the lamp produce breathtaking light effects.
