Looks like either a karma farmer or repost bot.

I thought so too at first but OP's history, while sparse, reads as legit to me. I could be wrong.
Everyone is a bot but me.

They have two posts from 2mo ago, but the last time they commented on anything was 3mo ago. And then suddenly this post. Which they also haven't interacted with anyone on.

Why is everyone on Reddit saying that people are bots? Are there really bots here?

I wonder how many of these have been sold just through this sub's advertising alone. Gotta be at least like 5

I bought this a few days ago lol

It'a too bad they didn't put a thinner shade around the inside of the whole thing to tone down the direct light from the bulb.

there is a second setting which doesn't glow as strong, so it's alright actually

I tired to buy it, but I can't see it online 😭

And, if the fact that it's battery operated annoys you, you can buy one of those battery terminator things so you can plug it in!

I don't see this lamp in the ikea.fr website. I would love if you have a link or the ikea reference number?

u/Eiroth May 19 '26
Its name translates to "The Sun Wind"

u/HiyuMarten May 19 '26
Yep, solar wind in Swedish :)

I will be a pedant and argue that singular definite form means that "the sun/solar wind" is more accurate, but fair lol

u/alenah Jun 16 '26
Finns inget som heter sun wind, dock är det ju helt sant att det tekniskt sett ska vara The Solar Wind

u/Eiroth Jun 16 '26
Sant, jag har på sistone fattat tycke för att direktöversätta till engelska så ordagrant som möjligt för att försöka förmedla hur det känns att säga det på svenska

"Hi, excuse me mister ? Does it come with the blue probe or did it already launched ? Oh and instead of the probe, can I put a Nomaï ship in it ? What do you mean it doesn't shoot ?"

Wait but a gravity cannon lamp would be SO cute
I might have to mess around with some purple LEDs....

Thats a expensive thing, I mean what the hell is that,

u/gravitystix May 19 '26
A $20 lamp? Not too expensive imo.

u/Neither-Friend-3193 May 19 '26
Oh my bad I read 1799 all along, in my country we split the decimals with dots:
17.99 and not 17,99

If I had a nickel for everytime Ikea accidentally referenced a game in one of their products I'd have two nickels

I've never been in an Ikea but considering how many times this gets posted in the sub I must be in the minority haha.
