Product Information

Full details

The HAY Host Portable Rechargeable Lamp is for individuals seeking adaptable, stylish lighting for various indoor and outdoor settings. Its key benefit is providing a warm, adjustable light source that is easily transportable and can be secured magnetically or with its included base, offering convenience and aesthetic appeal. A potential caveat is the varying battery life depending on the model (Host Portable 220 vs. 300), requiring users to be aware of their specific model's runtime. This compact, cordless lamp features a slim profile, a downward-facing light, USB-C recharging, and a 'Sleep Mode' for transit.

Troubleshooting

Lamp does not turn on

Ensure the lamp is fully charged. Check the USB-C connection and try a different power source or adapter. If the issue persists, activate 'Sleep Mode' and then try turning it on again.

Light flickers or is dim

The battery may be low. Recharge the lamp. Ensure the dimmer is adjusted correctly. If flickering persists after a full charge, contact customer support.

Magnet is not holding the lamp securely

Ensure the metal surface is clean and free of debris. Test the magnet's strength on different metal surfaces. If the lamp has been dropped, the magnet may be damaged.

Lamp is not charging

Verify that the USB-C cable is securely connected to both the lamp and the power source. Try a different USB-C cable and power adapter, as these can fail independently.
