The last time you were fumbling through the dark for the switch to the lights, did you wish you had a flashlight that you could keep at your bedside? We’ve all had the problem of being half awake and trying not to wake the household as we stumble to the bathroom late at night.

The Torch Lamp by designer Julien Bergignat may be just what you are looking for. A table lamp that can convert from table light to mobile flashlight and still look sleek and modern as both. Take a look at this handy flashlight that doubles as your favorite reading lamp beside your bed.

What makes this lamp unique is that the Torch Lamp resembles a classic torch being carried through the dark nighttime, but it also has a black contemporary styling that modernizes the torch light. While you may be thinking, “How does it work without a cord?” the recharging capabilities similar to your cordless phone make this torch lamp and flashlight combination ingenious.

Many people choose to keep an industrial looking flashlight inside the bedside table to have a quick look around when it’s pitch black around the bedroom at night. Not only can this be disruptive to find to your sleeping companion, but it always has to be tucked away out of plain sight.

The Torch Lamp alleviates this and will reduce the redundancy of having multiple types of lighting alongside the bed.

Julien Bergignat has designed a fixture that takes the permanence out of having a corded table lamp and made it convenient for walking through your home in the darkest hour. Creative design and sleek styling in a two-in-one device, that solves every late nighters fear of stubbing their toe on the bedpost or waking the kids when cruising for a late night snack.

    We have lots of power outages in my area, so to be able to grab the bedside lamp in a pinch is a great idea. Because invariably, the flashlight is always out of battery power when you need it.
