Multi-Lite — common questions

Colour codes, materials, battery life and compatibility for the Multi-Lite lamps.

Can the Multi-Lite Floor Lamp be dimmed?

Yes. It works with an external dimmer or a dimmable bulb.

Why do I see two different sizes for the small Multi-Lite shade?

Both figures are correct — they measure different things. The small shade is 25,5 cm including the outer metal ring and 22,5 cm without it.

Does the Multi-Lite Pendant canopy have an opening for the cord?

No. The canopy is closed, so the cord runs from underneath it. If your outlet is not directly above where the lamp should hang, leave room for the cord by hanging the canopy slightly lower.

What colour temperature is the Multi-Lite Portable bulb?

Current production uses a 2500K bulb. Lamps made before July 2024 use 2700K.

Are the Multi-Lite brass rings solid brass?

The brass finish ring is brass-plated steel, not solid brass.

How long does the Multi-Lite Portable run on a charge?

  • 6 hours at 100% brightness
  • 12 hours at 50%
  • 50 hours at 10%

From switch-on, a fully charged lamp gives about 6.5 hours at maximum brightness. Charging takes 6 hours to full, or 3 hours to 80%.

What colour are the canopy and cable on the brass-frame Multi-Lite Pendant with a black shade?

The canopy is brass and the cable is black.
