A bedside lamp switched by touching the base, for clients who cannot manage a small rocker switch or find a pull cord in the dark. Arthritic hands, tremor, low vision and reduced fine motor control all make a conventional lamp switch harder than it looks, and a touch base removes the problem entirely.
Touching it steps the light through brightness levels, so a client can have a low glow for overnight orientation and a brighter setting for reading. Better night lighting is a straightforward falls prevention measure for anyone getting up to the toilet.
It has a round fabric shade and a compact footprint that fits on a crowded bedside table.
