Description
The FRANCO II LED desk lamp puts a focused pool of light right over your work surface. It draws a maximum of 6.8W and gives up to 590 lumens at a warm 3000K, with an 87 lm/W efficiency that keeps running costs low. The adjustable arm and head let you aim the beam exactly where you need it, and the 100 degree spread covers a keyboard, book or notepad without spilling glare back at you. American buyers will recognise this style of integrated LED task light as a reading lamp for desk or bedside use.
Sitting on its own base, the FRANCO II is made for desks, study corners, home offices and bedside tables. It lights the area directly in front of the user rather than the whole room, so it works best alongside ambient ceiling lighting rather than as a sole source. The warm 3000K tone suits evening reading and detail work, and the adjustable head means you can angle the throw across paperwork or draw it back to a softer wash. Place it to the side of your dominant hand so the arm casts light over the page rather than your own shadow.
The body is moulded from plastic in a clean white finish, measuring 173mm across the base and weighing 1.28kg for a stable footing. The integrated LED is rated for 20,000 hours, so there is no bulb to replace over its working life. It runs from 220 to 240V mains and is rated IP20 for dry indoor use only. This model is not dimmable, giving a steady fixed output for consistent task lighting.

Frequently Asked
What should I look for in a desk lamp?
Brightness, colour temperature and glare control matter most for comfortable working. The FRANCO II gives 590 lumens at a warm 3000K with a 100 degree beam, so it lights your work surface evenly without harsh hotspots. The adjustable head lets you direct the light away from your eyes.
Does it clamp to the desk or stand on a base?
This model is free-standing and rests on its own weighted base, measuring 173mm across. It does not clamp to a desk edge. At 1.28kg it stays put on the desktop without tipping.
Does it take a bulb or is the LED built in?
The LED is integrated, so there is no separate bulb to fit or replace. It is rated for around 20,000 hours of use, which is many years of typical desk use. The whole lamp simply plugs into a 220 to 240V mains socket.
Can I use it outdoors or in a bathroom?
No, the FRANCO II is rated IP20 for dry indoor use only. Keep it clear of bathrooms, damp areas and any outdoor location. It is designed for desks, studies and bedside tables inside the home.
