Whether you have a pipe organ, an electronic or digital organ, the elegant Ektralamp overhead organ lamps will help you see your music more clearly with less eye strain. The glare-free lamps shine evenly on your music - not in your eyes, nor in the eyes of choir or congregation.
The slim low-profile music lamps are almost invisible yet provide pleasant and even lighting with no highlights or dark spots. Illumination from 45 recessed LEDs provde uniform lighting on all your music spread out across your music rack with minimal glare. The lamps use little power, they get warm but never hot, and can last for up to 50,000 hours of use.
We provide two LED temperature color options: warm white, (about 2800K), and natural white (about 4000K). See the two colors in the sample box. You can select color when ordering your lamp.
The standard lamp is comprised of a 30" wide brass light tube supported by two brass legs attached to a hardwood base. The solid brass has a satin finish coated with a protection against smudges and corrosion. Turn the lamp on/off with a discrete switch on the underside of the lamp. You can rotate the light tube to focus the light on your music thus minimizing any glare in your eyes or the eyes of the choir or congregation. If desired, lamp intensity can be controlled with an optional dimmer. The standard lamp with a hardwood base arrives fully assembled. Just set the lamp on the organ, plug it in, and enjoy the light!
Custom sizes, configurations and finishes, such as black, aluminum or nickel (there is an additional charge for nickel), are available on request. Call Will at 440-871-0976 to discuss your special needs.
Why Overhead Music Lamps?
Many organs are equipped with lamps attached to, or built into, the bottom of the music rack. Unfortunately they tend to shadow, glare, and leave the top of the music without much light.
A properly placed overhead Ektralamp organ light illuminates the entire height and width of your music evenly with no glare or shadow. Even thick hymnals can be properly lighted! If you already have a bottom-mounted light, the Ektralamp overhead lamp will nicely enhance your music lighting. If you don't have a bottom-mounted light, the Ektralamp produces all the light you need. Why play in the dark any longer?
Mounting Options
Our standard lamp is free-standing on a hardwood base that rests on the top of the console lid. We can also supply the lamp with no base for permanent mounting on the console lid, installed by drilling two holes in the lid and fastening nuts from underneath, For organs without a console, such as many tracker organs, we can provide the lamp with horizontal supports that attach to the organ casework. We can also create custom mounting options to meet your unique needs. Note that lamps supplied without a base may require professional installation. If you have unique or specialized requirements, please call Will at 440-871-0976 to discuss.
Lamp Height
Organ consoles vary in deisgn, so we customize the height of each lamp for the organ on which it is to be used. In order to order with the correct height please use our simple height calculator. Enter the calculated height when ordering your lamp.
Standard Base Colors
The lamp bases are all made of solid hardwood - cherry, oak, and walnut being the standards. Contact us if you need other species or if you would like a painted base (typically black or white on a solid maple base). Our goal is to provide a base that is compatible with your organ console. Should you require an exact match, you will need to supply us with a sample. Note that there is an extra charge of $100 to match a base to your sample.

Organ lighting controller
Note: THIS MODULE REQUIRES PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION.
The Ektralamp organ control module provides precise illumination control for consoles equipped with multiple Ektralamp lights. All the lamps receive their power from the organ lighting controller which, in turn, is connected to the organ's internal 12VDC (nominal) power supply. The intensity of each lamp can be individually adjusted upon installation. All the lamps can be simultaneously dimmed by the organist with an included panel-mounted dimmer. For more information contact Will at 440-871-0976.
