Picture Light – Rechargeable Bar with Tilting Head and Three Light Tones

Picture Light – Lights Your Artwork Properly Without a Cable Down the Wall

Most walls have no outlet behind the artwork, which is why so many pictures end up lit by whatever the ceiling is doing. This bar carries a 4400 mAh battery, mounts on two screws and charges over USB-C. Depending on brightness it runs 12 to 20 hours, which on evening use is weeks between charges.

Why choose a cordless picture light?

Angle is the whole game with a picture light. Aimed badly it bounces glare off glazed frames or leaves the bottom of a canvas in shadow. The head on this one rotates, so you set the beam once and the whole piece reads evenly.

• Rotating head — tilt the bar until the wash covers the full frame and the glare is gone.
• Three light tones — warm for oils and timber frames, natural for photography, cool for monochrome.
• 4400 mAh battery — 12 to 20 hours per charge, refilled with the included USB-C cable.
• Touch or remote — tap the housing on the way past, or work it from the chair.
• Screw-mount bracket — goes onto plaster, shiplap, timber battens or a gallery panel.

The frame stops being a dark rectangle and starts being the thing you look at.

Choose 11.8 inches for a standard framed print or 15.8 inches for wide canvases and landscape pieces. Mount it slightly above the top edge of the frame and tilt down until the lower third of the piece brightens. The aluminum, iron and ABS build suits a living room wall, a desk alcove or a stair-landing gallery run.
