This lamp, whose name signifies the game of redirecting sun beams with a mirror, was sparked by a common domestic problem: some people like to read in bed until late at night, while their partners are eager to fall asleep in darkness. The strong halogen bulb, housed at the bottom of the base, casts its light on an adjustable mirror, whose angle can be set to further redirect the beam exactly where it is needed.
