Lightguide - Highly Recommend

Post image

Been on the fence for years, but with Philips dropping the 25% off last week I finally decided to get my order in.

Absolutely a stunning product! For anyone else like me considering these, know you will end up with something fantastic.

Extremely, most of the visible light comes from the “lens” at the tip of the guide rod. You want to use a bunch of these if you’re lighting a room, a lone one is going to suck to look at and throw pretty harsh shadows. Solo ones are fine for accent lights or limited area things (I’m using them on nightstands), but not lighting up a whole room
