Collection: Lighting

It depends on the lamp! We sell a mix of rechargeable and battery operated lamps, so check the product description to see what style of lamp a particular product is, or explore our collections of battery operated lamps and rechargeable lamps.

Our rechargeable lamps will come with a USB or USB-C charging cable, and you simply connect them to a wall adapter, laptop, or power bank for convenient charging. For the majority of our battery operated lamps you will need to purchase batteries (we usually recommend rechargeable ones!).

Most rechargeable lamps provide between 6 to 10 hours of light depending on brightness settings, and will slowly dim as they lose charge. Lower brightness modes extend battery life, making them ideal for evenings, outdoor use, or emergencies.

While many of our portables can be used for both indoor and outdoor lighting, they are not intended for permanent outdoor use and should not be left outside when not in use or in bad weather. Check the product description for IP rating to ensure suitability for outdoor conditions.

In general we wouldn't recommend our portable lamps for reading, but rather as mood lighting. Some portables feature adjustable brightness levels, but overall normally aren't bright enough for comfortable reading and are intended more for ambient use.

Some of our lamps have several buttons/functions so please consult this article to ensure you're using it correctly. If problem is not solved please email customerservice@abigailahern.com

Generally our portable lamps come with an integrated bulb, so they are not changeable. If you have an issue with your bulb not working, please email customerservice@abigailahern.com

Most table lamps use standard E27 or E14 bulbs. Please always check the product specifications to confirm compatibility.

They can be when paired with LED bulbs, which consume significantly less energy and last longer than traditional bulbs.

Table lamps can be used on any space that needs some illumination in your home - they work well on bedside tables, desks and side tables especially. They're usually used as either task or ambient lighting, but you can tailor them to your needs with the type of lightbulb you use.

Ceiling lights such as chandeliers typically require basic electrical installation when they are wired into the ceiling. If you're not experienced, we recommend hiring a qualified electrician for safe installation. Some of our pendants are easier to install as they often hang on existing ceiling bulbs. Please see each product's description and specifications for more information.

Many of our ceiling lights and chandeliers are dimmable when paired with compatible bulbs and dimmer switches, but we would recommend consulting an electrician for correct installation. Check product specifications for details.

It's up to you! Chandeliers can be a beautiful way to add a large, statement lighting piece to a room, but can also be used as a more understated but glamorous addition.
