We’re excited to unveil two new additions to the Ideal-Lume family, each designed to bring unparalleled color accuracy and convenience to your color-critical workspace.

1) Ideal-Lume™ Mk2 v2 Desk Lamp

A complete reinvention of our flagship desk lamp, the Mk2 v2 is built for colorists, editors, and anyone needing pristine D65 illumination.

• Integrated Aluminum Blinder Hood: Minimizes glare and reflections, while improving thermal management.
• Non-Linear Dimming: Enjoy 146 incremental brightness levels, plus dedicated 100% and off settings.
• Flicker-Free Operation & Persistent Memory: Seamless dimming and automatic recall of your last brightness level—even after main power is switched off.
• Professional Grade Accuracy: Calibrated to D65 standards and designed to meet SMPTE recommendations for reference viewing environments.

The familiar form factor remains, but every feature has been refined to deliver the best desk lamp experience yet.

2) Ideal-Lume™ Mk2 v2 DIT Lamp

When colorists began stacking multiple lamps in cramped suites and DITs struggled to fit desk lamps onto small carts, we realized there had to be a more streamlined solution. The result? The Ideal-Lume Mk2 v2 DIT Lamp—a scaled-down, base-free design offering the same D65 accuracy as our standard Desk Lamp at one-third the price.

• Space-Saving Form Factor: By removing the base and slightly reducing the lamp head and gooseneck, it fits seamlessly into tight setups and mobile carts.
• USB-Powered Convenience: Power it using desktop grommets, hubs, power banks, or USB AC adapters for ultimate flexibility.
• Touch Control & Flicker-Free Dimming: Adjust brightness with a tap, and rely on persistent memory to maintain your last setting.
• Custom USB Plug: Designed to reduce stress on your USB port .

Legal Disclaimer: While the custom USB plug is designed to minimize strain and ensure a stable connection, accidents can still happen. We strongly recommend using a USB port on a hub, power bank, adapter or power strip rather than the USB port on your $30,000 monitor. It’s built for stability, but let’s not push our luck.

The DIT Lamp delivers the same industry-leading D65 fidelity in a lighter, more compact package—perfect for multi-lamp suites and location-based workflows.
