What Is Touch Lighting? (+ How it Works in Furniture)
Nightstands and Beds with Lamp Assist Technology
The metal bar is touch activated and connected to the bedside lamp of your choice, so all it takes is the slight touch of your hand to turn off – or on – the lights. Many designs also come with built-in standard power outlets.
How to Activate the Lamp Assist/Touch Sensor Technology
If you see a nightstand or bed you love that happens to come with a lamp assist feature, it is usually the case that it will also feature standard outlets – which means you may notice several cords wired into the back of the design. Usually, these cords will be labeled with either a ‘Hot’ or ‘On/Off’ tag. Cords labeled as ‘Hot’ are meant for items that need to be kept charged or on at all times, such as alarm clocks. Cords labeled as ‘On/Off’ are meant for the lamp you wish to be turned on and off by the touch sensor.
