Hi guys, just showing off my hand-painted Jupiter lamp
This lamp depicts the multi-color bands of the Jovian atmosphere, as well as a few storms, including the Great Red Spot. It's not only a beautiful room or desk lamp, it's accurate enough to be used by educators to teach about the planet Jupiter. The globe (shade) is 6" in diameter. The actual lamp bulb is a 5W LED. The user has the option to swap the bulb with a higher wattage bulb for reading illumination purposes, but at 3-5W it's a warm bedside "night light". Standard 1m lamp wiring (note that the stand and wiring depicted in the photo are still in the prototype/development phase). Plugs into 220V outlet (AC), but we are currently exploring DC/battery options (and 110V version).
This is not just a lamp--it's an illuminated hand-painted replica of the largest planet in the Solar System.
Curious on your opinion of it, thanks!
