As of now, I'd like to write a few points that I felt as soon as I received and tried to set up this lamp:
~ The product arrived on time and in perfect condition. No damages at all. As the holiday season is approaching, Amazon has started rolling out the holiday packing that I love, so Yaaay (pictures included)!
~ As of now, the lamp works perfectly. The On/OFF switch is in a perfect working condition too. The spring clamp is a little hard to open but it clamps on to the surface (in my case - handrail) firmly. Once you attach the clamp, the lamp remains immobile (unless you try applying a huge force in which case it would definitely dislocate).
~ Even though this lamp is meant for desk plants, it does provide enough light to cover my curry leaf plant, which is moderately big. But as to whether or not this lamp is effective enough in keeping my plant alive, this is a little too early to be answering that question. I will update my review in a couple of months!
~ The only problem that I felt was that the user manual is a little vague. This is a spring clamp lamp - easy to set up. But the user manual provides 3 different methods using which you can clamp the lamp. The first method is to clamp it on to a surface like a normal spring clamp, which is what I have done. The second method is where you have to fix the clamp using a screw (provided with the lamp). This method is a little vague as I have illustrated in my video and I have decided not to follow this step as I feel that this might damage the wire (Video attached with this review). The third method is sticking the clamp on a flat surface using a double sided tape - I have not tried this either.
~ The spring clamp can be opened to a maximum thickness of 50 mm.
~ Warning - The surface of the LED lamp - right outside the bulbs, gets highly heated within a few minutes of switching ON. Please be careful regarding this issue!
Update after 2 months of use:
The grow light works fine. My places are alive. And since it is possible to adjust the position of the lamp easily, I'm able to use this for my other plants as well. And they are all alive. But I did make it a point to shift my plants towards sunlight whenever it was possible!
