ABSTRACT:
The floor lamp of the present invention includes a dimmer switch at a mid-point of the main supporting post in order to allow maximum accessibility for the users. The dimmer switch is contained within a compact and aesthetically pleasing dimmer housing, and is appropriately connected via electrical connections which extend through the main supporting post. An additional supporting post is provided, which runs from the base portion of the floor lamp to the dimmer housing to add structural stability to the floor lamp. By utilizing the dimmer switch in an elevated location, the need for mechanical connecting rods is eliminated. Further, additional design freedom is obtained.
