Lamps from Switzerland is a rather unexpected combination. We have got used to prestigious Swiss chronometers, Swiss banks, Swiss knifes but not to lamps production. Nevertheless, today I would like to draw your attention to the Swiss manufacturer of lamps. The highest criteria of quality, accuracy and attention even to the smallest things, all this that is peculiar to the mentioned earlier non-light Swiss products, is peculiar also to the production by Senses. There is an interesting fact that in the catalogue there is a trade mark “made in Switzerland “. All the factory production is completely made in Switzerland, including all electronic stuffing. Electronics of these lamps is worth the separate detailed analysis and, actually, makes the basic highlight to the factory.

While the overwhelming majority of manufacturers in the field of economy of energy the imagination does not go further banal replacement of simple bulbs to power saving lamps. Senses offers the decision, on an abundance of possibilities reminding that famous Swiss knife. Elegant regulators in the base of the lamp give the chance to organize the work of lamps by Senses in almost any way, which can come in to mind.
Let me explain what does this mean. In the base of the lamp these are some built in gauges. One of them receives data concerning the general light exposure of the premise, the second is a movement sensor. The brightness of a luminescence is regulated rather smoothly.
And now it is a real approach to the economy of the electric power. By the way, the power saving bulbs in these lamps have some peculiarities too. The matter is that the usual power saving bulbs are not intended for frequent ons and offs, because of this its time resource falls greatly.
Senses has worked out this moment as well. All their lamps can be completed by the special power saving bulbs that are produced specially for frequent cycles of ons and offs without decrease in service life. Add to all the characteristics truly Swiss quality of glass, galvanic covering of metal parts and laconic, but verified design.
