About Rural Student Friendly Multifunctional Lamp
Rural Student Friendly is a multifunctional lamp designed for students in rural areas of China, where night lighting is often limited. The lamp combines three functions: a desk light for study, a flashlight for outdoor use at night, and an ambient light. The lamp body is pulled up and rotated to set the angle, and it locks in place when released. A short press of the button changes the light color, and a long press adjusts the brightness. The housing is made of recycled aluminum alloy, cast and then sandblasted for durability. The lamp stands 25 cm high.
