What is the ideal brightness for a task lamp?

Task lamps should provide at least 400–700 lumens for activities like reading or detailed work. Look for adjustable brightness settings for flexibility.

What color temperature is best for a task lamp?

A neutral to cool white light (around 3500–5000K) is ideal for task lamps, as it reduces eye strain and enhances focus for work.

How do I position a task lamp for optimal lighting?

Place the lamp so that light falls directly on the work area without casting shadows. If you're right-handed, position the lamp on the left side, and vice versa, to avoid hand shadows.
