 How trashy does the description of this thing sound? September 29, 2008

I heard about this lamp and dismissed it as a trashy cheap sounding toy, but I was in Dublin recently and saw one in operation in a philips shop. It was actually kind of nice and because you can turn down the intensity of the colours a lot, it really manages to create a lot of different moods.
When I got it back home it was even better, in the evenings, in our white painted apartment, it could totally transform the look of the place. Light blues, deep greens, or hellish deep red, whatever the colour or intensity you want with the remote it only takes seconds to get it.
The lamp is nice and heavy, although a little top heavy, and the guy in the shop told me there was a stand for it but there was nothing in the box. The design is very Apple, and the remote is gorgeous even on it's own, with the glossy white finish and round spectrum to play with. It's also not infra-red, so you don't need line of sight with it.
I thought the price was pretty high, but now I'm starting to convince myself that one or two more wouldn't be such a bad purchase. Very recommended!

I bought Philips LivingColors as a Valentine gift for my girlfriend just yesterday for her bedroom which is not very big. She is absolutely thrilled by it.
This is an amazing product, & it really changes the ambience of the entire room!! You can play around with the remote (which is radio controlled, so you don't have to point it towards the lamp!) to get the precise colour you want, with its 16 million options.
The product itself is a beauty and can adorn any setting. Philips has a winner here.
Every now & then, my girlfriend changes the colour to reflect her mood, & I have to guess if she's angry, or sad, or naughty, or happy. The lamp doesn't get hot at all, even if you leave it on for hours.
I have not found any negatives yet. It's a bit expensive, but worth it.

Philips has a way of throwing out slightly whacky products like this, but sometimes it does it well --as in this case. The lamp is exactly as it appears in the promotional literature, and nicely finished in construction. The iPod-esque radio remote is a nice piece of product design also and takes three AAA batteries, thoughtfully enclosed.
In order to be able to use multiple lamps in the same area, each can be assigned its own remote (for individual operation), or you can assign one remote to all of them to operate them simultaneously. This means that when you plug in the lamp for the first time, you need to hold the remote about 10 inches away from the light-emitting front and touch the ON button for about 5 seconds. The light then flashes to let you know that it is tuned to the remote.
From then on, operation is intuitively simple. The radio remote does work in the same band as Wifi networks, so if you find the range a bit limited or the response "jerky" (as has been mentioned), you may have to switch Wifi to channels 8 or 11 to avoid interference. In my case, I experienced no problems.
I'll definitely consider buying a few more for different parts of the house.
Gorgeous colours and fun for all the family November 22, 2008

My husband bought me this for my birthday - and I love it! We've put it in the bedroom and I have the "zapper" on my bedside table. In the morning I turn it a bluey colour to help us wake up (circadian sensor), in the evening I have it on a dull orange as we get changed for bed (no circadian hit). If we want to read in bed, we just about can with it desaturated to white, though it's not really bright enough for long-term reading (and you couldn't light your living room with it).
Our 2-year-old son loves it too. When he climbs in our bed in the morning he always asks for the remote, plays with it and shouts out the colours.
I also took it along to a physics course my friend teaches - it is an excellent way to explain to people how you can make yellow light out of red and green. It's not really designed to provide white light though - the colour rendering is not great when it's on white (because there are bits of the spectrum missing "between" the LED emittance bands). This means you shouldn't use it as room illumination when you might have to recognise colours in what you're doing.
But as fun mood lighting it's great! And a superb present to buy a woman for Christmas!
 Not cheap but worth it perhaps November 12, 2008

I was somewhat offput by the cost at first but Amazon cut the price and I decided to buy one and have not since regretted it.
Firstly, don't think of this as a light source, it is not, it's designed for mood lighting in an otherwise darkened room. The best way to use it, at least for me, it is to locate it in a corner in a room with white or plain walls angled upwards. You can then just keep on for a pleasant moody atmospheric lighting changing it as the fancy takes you or just allowing it to cycle through its' auto setting.
If you have the money for it you can buy up half a dozen of them and they will work together to create ( I imagine) a stunning effect.
Remember that the LED light source is non replaceable and the unit itself, which is about the size of a large melon, is fairly delicate so it needs to be carefully handled.
If you are looking for some mood lighting for a special room then this would be a great buy, although a cheap one.
