Toobe in the flash

Yes, I liked the picture of it very much - I then looked at it at the stilwerk in Duesseldor. To be honest it looked a bit "el cheapo". Seems that I am to much into high quality materials (Alu, steel, wood). This thing is made from an acryl tube - from close it does not look high end. But at the time I was looking I was amazed by the quality of the "ocular" lamps, created by "lichtimraum"- in a nutshell nothing I have seen before compared to these "ocular lamps".

Hi Judith,

Thank you very much for your answer. It sounds like the products are not as good as they look like. I guess I have to take another look around.

Cheers,

Hello Larskolle, I am familiar with Bosscom because I ordered several items from the company a while back, for TheLuxPod and did not have a good experience with them. I would not recommend purchasing from Bosscom, based on the unprofessional way in which they conduct their business. The company has no relationship with Bang & Olufsen, which was confirmed by Bang & Olufsen at their flagship store in Knightsbridge, London. I ordered three i-Pod docks "for B&O" as they say in their marketing blurb. Two of them did not work. The three items were very badly engineered and I would suggest their origin is China. Furthermore, various cable covers and DVD wall stands were also ordered and delivered and the color did not match on the items. Their origin was also most likely from China. There was no packaging, nor instructions which one would expect from a reputable supplier. In summary, I found the products to be unacceptable and not of merchantable quality. If you are a discerning purchaser, I suggest you consider very carefully your purchase options and ensure that you have the right to return the goods, if they are not satisfactory to your needs. Regards, Judith

Hi,

I hope I am right, but the post deals with light. ;-)

Is there anyone on the forum having experiances using Beo remotes for further tasks like dimming light, switching lights, etc. I have fond some light dimmer at bosscom.com

Along with a selection of illuminating products from Mr Starck, Jona Hoads creation takes pride of place.

Actually, it has 1 x 20W bulb and 2 x 10W bulbs, so that adds up to 40W. At 12 volts, that is reached at 3.3 amps, so the resistance of the entire lamp is 3.6 ohms. Thus, a BM6500 playing a 50 Hz sine wave should be more than well able to keep two of these lit, and you could dim them with the volume control

(not going to try though, as halogen bulbs are near short circuit until the filament heats up! )

wonder how loud I'd have to play until it lights up?

That all depends on using a 6500 or 8000!

The lights on the 8000 are bigger ;)

I wanted the smaller "Double Bubble" as well and got it yesterday. It has 12V halogen bulbs and so needs a transformer. The factory has chosen a 2-pin DIN speaker plug for the connection - wonder how loud I'd have to play until it lights up?

.....

Artemide has some of the best designs. I am thinking of getting Pirce also.

Hi Linder,

I have installed my Pirce in my living room. Well, I can say that Artemide makes such beautiful ceiling lamp as this one.

You won't be disappointed.

Cheers,

Guy

Just found this on the internet. A lamp designed by Tokujin Yoshioka in collaboration with Yamagiwa.

I have that lamp. There were actually two versions.......the larger one as in the photo and a smaller one.
