What do teenagers need lamps/lighting products for, and how do they use them?

hedgepig asked:


This is an easy question really so i want lots of replies! ^_^

I need to know this for some tech coursework i am doing, and teens are my target market. Do you use them as reading lamps, work lamps, lights to create atmosphere, etc? When / where do you use them?

How old does an “item”, such as a chair, picture, jewelry, lamps, have to be before it is called an Antique?

yourstuff14224 asked:


I currently have household furniture & Table Lamps that are from the late 1960s’ to the early 1970s’ and would like to know if they are called “Antique, or Retro”. What would they be listed as if I was to advertise them in a classified ad.

My puppy chewed through the cords of 2 lamps. I’m wondering if I can replace the cords?

Friday, September 19th, 2008
Amy Jane asked:


He chewed ALL the way through the cords (i.e. they are in 2 pieces) so electrical tape obviously won’t help. I like my lamps so I’d like to be able to remove the old cords and replace them with new ones, but I have no idea if this is possible. If it is, what do I need and where could I find it?

Has anyone else had problems with Mitsubishi Colt head lamps?

Saturday, September 13th, 2008
V T asked:


I’ve had to get my head lamps changed 6 times in three years. I think there’s a design fault on the Colt Elegance but Mitsubishi deny it stating that if I keep the lights clean it will stop the bulbs going all the time. I’ve tried this and it doesn’t work. Has anyone else had similar problems?

Why would a “touch” lamp not work(by touching it) after a globe has been replaced? I have 2 lamps affected.

Saturday, September 13th, 2008
shadows_mum asked:


Two of my touch lamps globes went, and since replacing them with the same wattage globes,60 watt, they don’t respond to touching to turn them on and off. I now have to use the wall switch to use them which is a nuisance.

I drive a 2004 BMW 5-Series, I got pulled over for having just my day lamps on w/ my fog lights on. Is this legal? Aren’t they bright enough?

Why are some street lamps so uncared in Montreal?

Tuesday, September 9th, 2008
Anonymous asked:


All the street lamps on Saint Catherine street are dirty. I’m talking about the glass bulb. The glass doesn’t look transparent anymore, it looks brown. Don’t they clean them once in a while? Compare them to the new ones on Saint Laurent Boulevard. There is a huge difference. Is this supposed to be normal. Why don’t they clean them?

how do you wire driving lamps into the headlight switch on a mustang?

Sunday, September 7th, 2008
createtosurvive asked:


I want to wire the fog/driving lamps of my 2000 mustang into the headlights so i can have them on at the same time when i turn the headlight switch on. I really don’t want to have a seperate switch for the fog lights.
