What are the different versions of Light Soy?
There are two versions of Light Soy.
Light Soy Portable is a portable, rechargeable USB-C lamp which can be used with or without a base.
Light Soy Flex is a wired lamp, available with a power plug at the end of the cable. It can be used in many different ways depending on how you want to set it up, for example as a table lamp, pendant light or hung from a hook or beam.
Which plug type should I get?
Which plug type should I get?
If you are planning to plug the lamp into a power socket / outlet, or you don’t know where you will put your lamp yet, you should order the plug type for your region.
If a licensed electrician will hardwire the light to your mains power, you can order the ‘No Plug / Wires Only’ type as a plug is not required.
All Light Soy Flex lamps have a universal power supply inside. This means you can use a plug adaptor, or a licensed electrician can easily add, remove or change the plug as needed.
There is no plug type for my country / region, what do I do?
There is no plug type for my country / region, what do I do?
If there is no plug type for your country or region, you have two options:
Order any plug type (for example United States plug) and use a plug adaptor for your country.
Order any Light Soy Flex lamp available (including the ‘No Plug / Bare Wires’ type) and get a licensed electrician to fit the required plug before use.

Do I need an electrician?
Do I need an electrician?
If you want to hardwire the light to your mains power, or modify the plug, this must be done by a licensed electrician according to local regulations.
If you will plug Light Soy Flex into a power point / outlet you do not need an electrician.
How to hardwire Light Soy Flex?
How to hardwire Light Soy Flex?
Hardwired installation must be done by a licensed electrician. If required, the electrician may remove the power plug from the end of the cable, and connect the lamp directly into the mains power circuit, according to local regulations.
Does it have a bulb?
Does it have a bulb?
No. Light Soy Flex has an integrated LED. We chose this to maximise LED performance. The LED is very high quality and will last many years – in 5 years we've never had one fail.
If it does fail, the integrated LED can be replaced by an electrician or other qualified technician.
How does the Flex base work?
How does the Flex base work?
The Flex base has an opening in the bottom that the power plug can pass through. You simply pass the cable through the base and place the lamp in the base.
Do I need a Flex base to use as a table lamp?
Do I need a Flex base to use as a table lamp?
Not always, but it’s highly recommended. The cable exits the bottom of the lamp, so if you want it to stand upright you will need to use the Flex base, or cut a hole in the surface you want to mount it to for the cable to pass through.
Do I need a ceiling canopy or other bracket?
Do I need a ceiling canopy or other bracket?
Every installation location is a bit different, so what you will need will vary depending on what you are trying to do. It is definitely possible to use Light Soy Flex with no extra accessories.
If you’re unsure, we recommend asking an electrician or local lighting supplier for advice based on your specific needs.
