Brightech's science-fiction-inspired Eclipse LED Floor Lamp lands nicely within contemporary dwellings. The lamp's adjustable ring will circle your domain with energy-saving LED light and create mood-enhancing ambiance. A dimmer on the power button brings you three levels of lighting: bright enough to read by or a choice of two softer tones. Tap or press gently to achieve desired setting.

What's in the box and how does it all fit together? The outer container measures 21 inches wide by 25 inches in height, with a 3-inch diameter. Inside, carefully packaged sealed cardboard with protective inserts hold a heavy, weighted base (white), power cord (white), the lamp stem in four sections (sheathed in plastic) with the electrical cord already threaded through the pole, AND the orb, which measures 18 inches in diameter.

No screwdriver necessary! The base has a detachable black cap atop the base screw; remove this round sleeve to begin assembly. Insert bottom pole section (the one with power jack attached) and tighten by turning counter-clockwise, then repeat with each adjoining pole section. To situate the top pole, adjust the interior wire by pulling gently on the power jack on the bottom pole - the wire retracts! Lamp head has another round black cap to remove, then tighten orb fixture by counter-clockwise turns until secure.

With the ring upright, the Eclipse stands approximately 75 inches or 6 1/3 feet tall. Assembly takes approximately half an hour, depending on how briskly one approaches the task! After assembly, adjust the ring of light down or up for delightful sci-fi ambiance. Position near reflective surfaces such as windows or sliding glass doors to create an illusion of multiple orbs within one orb!
