The Beacons

Lamps that run off a USB port.

No mains, no electrician, no cable running across the floor. Plug them into anything.

The first three are switched on.

Every Beacon runs on 12 V USB. No transformer, no wall socket.

Twisted Swirl Lamp, Olive Green

Switch it on and the green disappears. It goes gold, the way a bottle does held up to a candle, and the wall goes warm with it. Runs off a phone charger.

Price range: $39.00 through $59.00

BEACON 002

Twisted Swirl Lamp, White

Moonlight rather than candlelight, with a faint lavender down in the shadows. The one for a room that has already chosen its colours.

Price range: $39.00 through $59.00

BEACON 003

Twisted Swirl Lamp, Blue

It does not share a room. Lit, the wall behind it goes the colour of deep water and everything else quietly gives up.

Price range: $39.00 through $59.00

Twelve volts is the whole point. It means no electrician, no certification, and no cable running across a room to a wall socket. It plugs into the same port as everything else on your desk.

Told when the first one is switched on.
