Nova LED Desk light

Humanscale’s award-winning Nova light combines advanced technology, modern design, and thoughtful engineering to bring you the ideal light for tasking, video calls, and more. Its customized optical lens and advanced LED Light Guide Technology and 91+ CRI produces a uniform footprint of glare-free neutral light, rendering objects vivid and clear. Simplicity in design and function allows for one-touch dimming and easy one-hand adjustability. Its energy-saving occupancy sensor will power Nova down when no movement is sensed. Nova is a versatile light, ideal light for any task and any space.

Unlike most LED lights, Nova is designed with a multi-layer light guide technology, where LEDs are arranged around the periphery of the lamp head, and directed inwards to the layered light guide. This redirects the light outward, eliminating glare and hot spots and producing even illumination. The resulting uniform beam of light is gentler on the eyes making it a superior choice for a variety of tasks, including video conferencing.

Nova produces the equivalent light of a 90W incandescent bulb with only 7W of power. Made with an aluminum body, steel forever hinges, and advanced heat sink technology to maximize the life of its LEDs, Nova is designed and tested to last decades. Nova boasts an industry-leading 10 Year warranty

• Ease of Movement: Nova allows you to position the light head at the exact height, depth, and angle needed and provides professional quality lighting for video conferencing.
• Forever Hinges: Nova's "Forever Hinges" ensure the arm stays in place without bounce or slippage, keeping the light positioned precisely where you want it to be. Designed and tested to maintain consistent tensions after decades of use.
• Video Conferencing: The combination of high-quality light and infinite positioning allows for exceptional on-camera appearance. This makes Nova the clear leader in high performance video conference lighting
• Warm Color Temp : 3000K light is favored for its warmth and complements virtually all skin tones, making it the ideal color temp for video conferencing
• High Fidelity Light Source: Light quality refers to how well we are able to see an object's true color. Color rendering is measured by two metrics: CRI and TM-30. Nova scores higher in both than all other task and video lights we measured with a CRI rating of 91+ and a TM-30(Rg) rating of 99.8/100. This means you'll look your best and not washed out or discolored in any way. It also means that you'll be able to see the true color of images and objects almost as well as being in sunlight.
• Various Base Options: Nova comes in Clamp Mount, Desktop, and Wireless Charging Base options for any application, from the bedside to your desktop.
• Occupancy Sensor: Nova is equipped with occupancy sensors that intelligently detect activity in their vicinity, automatically turning the light on when someone is present and off when the space is empty. Passive Infrared (PIR) Technology detects body heat within 1 meter, automatically shutting off 15 minutes after no presence is found. This seamless automation conserves energy and reduces utility costs
• Sustainability: Nova is comprised of over 52% recycled materials. Its unique PVC-free cabling brings a host of benefits, both for the environment and human health. Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a commonly used plastic in other lights on the market and is known for its harmful effects on both ecosystems and individuals.
• Smart Control: Nova's one-touch control powers and adjusts to your preferred brightness. When the light is powered back on, it remembers and returns to the last selected brightness level, conserving energy.
