Lamp surgery

There’s no need to panic if lamp isn’t working well! There are some simple solutions available to you that can be done without investing in a new lamp. For this guide, we will demonstrate five easy steps on how to perform "lamp surgery. Micare will all help you do this, and bring some light to your lamp Life will illuminate again with light. Let’s get started! If your lamp won’t turn on, the issue could be the cord. The lamp may stop working from time to time sometimes the cord may get damaged or broken. To remedy this situation, you’ll want to have a new lamp cord, scissors, and electrical tape on hand. First, be certain to disconnect the lamp from the wall outlet. This is really critical for your safety! Then, grab your scissors and cut the old cord off of the lamp. They say, "Watch out for the scissors!" Now you can do the opposite, taking the surgical headlamp and connecting it to the lamp. You will have to twist (very gently) the exposed droplets of wire. Then, use electrical tape to keep the twisted wires from coming apart. Finally, plug the lamp back in and see if it works. If it does, congratulations! You've successfully repaired that broken lamp cord and your lamp is ready to shine!

Replacing a burnt-out lightbulb

Your lamp may be on, but if the light isn't shining the lightbulb might need to be replaced. This is actually a common issue and a super easy fix! You have one lightbulb and we assume you have to replace it with a new one. The first step is to unplug the lamp, and allow it to cool if it was turned on. This is in order to not get burned. Once it has cooled, gently twist the old lightbulb out of the socket, turning it counterclockwise. Be gentle, so you don’t break it! Then, with the surgical lamp, insert it into the socket gently, twisting it clockwise until it is tight and secure. Lastly, plug in the lamp and switch it on to ensure the new lightbulb functions. If it lights up, awesome! You can now take that burnt-out lightbulb, the big old light switch there and replace it with something that makes your lamp shiny and operable again.
