Desk lamp for a student room

Desk lamp generated for a student room starts at 300 × 140 × 420 mm and 895 g in Aluminium 6061-T6 — €134 including VAT, delivered in about 8 working days, or €99 if you can wait 38. Flat-pack geometry and clamp-on fixing rather than screws, with a bill of materials that survives being packed into a suitcase twice a year.

What a student room actually demands

A student room is a desk, a bed and a radiator, and everything in it moves out again within a year. Nothing should need a drill, and nothing should be worth stealing.

The starting point this page generated

Everything in the specification below was computed, not written. We passed “desk lamp compact and cheap to ship” to the same generator the configurator uses, and this is what came back: a buildable desk lamp with every dimension inside the range the partner factory has qualified.

It is a starting point, not a product. Change any parameter in the configurator and the mass, the price, the tolerances and the manufacturability findings all recompute before you order.

Why this one can ship in days

Because most of it already exists. Turned base is a platform part — identical in every configuration, made in volume and held in stock. Only column and head are made for your order, by cut to length from stock, which starts the same day because it needs no tooling.

General dimensions hold ISO 2768-m, which at this size means ±0.8 mm; the fits that matter carry explicit ISO 286 callouts in the table above. The batch lane makes the same geometry by moulding or nesting it in a production run and sends it by sea: €99 in about 38 working days.

Questions people ask before ordering

Yes. Every joint in this configuration is a hand-assembled clearance fit — the tolerance table below shows the exact clearance — so it comes apart with the tool that shipped with it, or none at all.
