A review and teardown of the Aukey LT-T1 LED desk lamp. Has adjustable colour temperature from warm white to cool white and 5 brightness levels. A 5v USB DCP socket is provided. Works well on voltages between 12v and 14.4v and makes a good light source for filming my videos!
Aukey Dimmable LED Desk Lamp, Multi-function Eye-care Table Lamp, 4 Lighting Modes (Reading/Studying/Relaxing/Bedtime), 5-Level Dimmer, Flexible Arm, Touch-Sensitive Control Panel, 1-Hour Auto Timer, 5V/2A USB Charging Port, Mobile Device Charger (15 W, LT-T1, Piano Black) http://www.amazon.co.uk//dp/B00ORNMTHS/

    Hey can you make video on how to disassemble baseus i-work lamp? My dimming dial suddenly wont work, I tried to fix it but cant open the lid on the scroll

    I was hoping to see HOW you disassembled it. I've unscrewed all the screws and nothing seems obvious. I need to destroy that frickin' ON/OFF LED. It shines bright red when off and blinks when using the timer. F that! Too distracting in both cases.

    Nice lamp and video! one question: if I unplug it while it's on, will it turn on immediately when i plug it back then? or does it just remain off? I'm trying to make it work with homekit

    Too bad the money shot is missing for an LED light. The head should have come apart!
    Would also like to know the MSRP for a product right away and not towards the end of the video. This is too expensive for what it is, a cheap Chinese LED desk lamp.

    I just don't understand why there are so many dislikes.The LED lamp is pretty cool,and I like the video,it may be not as "tech" as Julian's other videos,But I think that he could try something different,and we should also accept various video styles.Anyway,I like it.

    I have a very similar lamp in my office, but it is too expensive for me to buy for home. This one might be a good cheap alternative. I will order one I think. The one I have at the office is >90 CRI, this one doesn't say the CRI.

    Why I voted negative. I subscribed for technical commentary. A desk.lamp?

    I really hope that nobody ends up buying this lamp, for that price anyway. Design is OKAY (it's still ugly though) but otherwise it's 90% plastic and the rest is nothing much either. If it was say £15 then maybe it would be a little more logical. Nice review though, cheers for "opening it up carefully" 🙂
