Three finishes

Pick the one that disappears into your bedside.

Warm Black for dark wood and linen. Linen White for minimal rooms. Dusk Pink when you want a little warmth on the table. All three run the same glow.

Three Lumora Reader finishes — black, white, and pink — grouped with a paperback
A reading ritual, restored

Your overhead light is too harsh.
Your phone keeps you up.
Lumora is neither.

The modern bedroom is not built for reading. Ceiling fixtures wash the room in a clinical white. Bedside lamps spill into your partner's sleep. Your phone tells your brain it's still noon.

Lumora replaces all three with a single, warm, diffused panel — designed so light lands on the page and nothing else. No glare. No flicker. No blue light spike. Just a cone of amber that puts you back inside the book.

— designed in Melbourne, for slow evenings

Engineered for the last hour of the day

Every detail, aimed at one thing: keeping you in the book.

Zero-glare diffusion

A honeycomb light-guide spreads every photon across the whole panel, so light enters your eyes only after bouncing off the page.

99-minute sleep timer

Tap once and Lumora fades gently to black when you do — no waking up at 3am to a light burning through your eyelids.

35 hours per charge

Two minutes on USB-C returns a full night. On the gentlest setting, a single charge covers a month of chapters.

Three light temperatures

Warm 2700K for fiction. Natural 4000K for essays. Cool 5000K for the stubborn 6am study session. One tap switches.

Stepless dimming

A single soft touch runs from candlelight to full-moon bright. No clicky steps. No restart from zero when you let go.

Partner-safe spill

The panel throws a tight cone of light downward — not outward. Read at full brightness beside a sleeping partner without a blanket over your head.

Three moods, one tap

A room's worth of lighting, inside a single panel.

Three steps. No apps.

A reading light that gets out of the way.

  1. 01

    Place

    Slide it between you and the headboard, or onto any bedside surface. Weighs less than a paperback.

  2. 02

    Touch

    One finger on the amber dot turns it on. Hold to dim. Swipe to change temperature.

  3. 03

    Read

    Set the timer. Lumora fades out with you. Wake up in the dark you fell asleep in.

I bought Lumora to stop arguing with my partner about the bedside lamp. What I didn't expect was finishing three novels in a month. The ritual came back.

"My partner asked if I'd stopped reading."

I hadn't. He just couldn't tell the light was on anymore. That's when I knew this was the one.

Jane M. · Brooklyn, NY

"I read for two hours without blinking it away."

Used to take a break every 20 minutes from eye strain. Now I'm finishing chapters I used to skim.

Michelle A. · Melbourne, AU

"Replaced my bedside lamp on night two."

Unplugged the old thing and never plugged it back in. The room feels calmer with a single warm panel.

Laura K. · Austin, TX
✓ Verified

"The timer is the feature I didn't know I needed."

Fall asleep mid-chapter almost every night. Lumora just fades out and joins me. No more 3am panic.

Daniel R. · London, UK

"I bought one. Then one for my mum."

Arthritic hands, soft touch controls, warm glow. She calls it her little library lamp.

Stephanie A. · Toronto, CA

"My phone hasn't made it into bed in three weeks."

If the alternative is a paperback and Lumora, I choose that every night. My sleep data agrees.

"Finally finished The Goldfinch."

Three years it's been sitting on my nightstand half-read. Two weeks with Lumora and I'm on the last 40 pages. No more "I'll just scroll for a minute" — the panel turns reading back into the default.

"My partner actually thanked me."

I read late, she sleeps early. For years the bedside lamp was a nightly argument. Lumora's spill is so tight she genuinely can't tell the light's on. First peaceful bedroom in three years.

"The timer changed my sleep."

I fall asleep mid-paragraph almost every night. Used to wake at 3am to a lamp burning. Lumora fades out with me — wake up in dark, still holding the book. Feels like a minor miracle.

"Bought one for mum. She cried."

She's 74, reads two novels a week, arthritic hands. The soft touch controls and warm setting were designed for her without anyone knowing. Calls it "her little library lamp" and uses it every night.

Everything you were about to ask

Questions, answered.

Is the light actually easy on the eyes?

Yes — the panel uses a layered diffuser (not exposed LEDs) so light enters your eye only after reflecting off the page. No point source, no flicker (PWM-free driver), no blue-light spike at night on the 2700K setting.

How does the 99-minute timer work?

Tap the timer button and set 1–99 minutes in one-minute increments. When the timer ends, Lumora fades out gradually instead of cutting — perfect if you drift off mid-chapter. You can also run it untimed.

How long does the battery last?

Up to 35 hours of continuous reading on the lowest warm setting. 4–6 hours at full brightness. A full recharge takes 2–3 hours over the included USB-C cable.

Will it really not wake my partner?

The panel projects a tight cone downward onto the page. Side-spill is roughly 10% of the forward output — nearly invisible to someone lying beside you. We tested it with 42 couples over 30 nights.

Can I clip it to a book?

No — Lumora is a stand-style panel, not a clip-light. It's designed to sit on any flat surface or tuck against a headboard. We believe a good reading light shouldn't fight the book.

What's the 60-night trial?

Read with it for 60 nights. If it doesn't become part of your ritual, send it back — we'll refund you in full and cover return shipping. No receipts, no questions, no "restocking fee."

When will it ship?

Batch 07 is shipping this week with free tracked delivery worldwide. US/AU/UK delivery is 3–6 days. You'll get a tracking link within 48 hours of order.
