The Leia series comprises seven models, three wall lamps and three reading lamps, as well as a model with a flexible swan neck. What they all have in common is the dimmer with memory function. It ensures that the lamp shines at the previously selected brightness the next time it is switched on.

The colour temperature is specified as 3200 Kelvin, which corresponds to a warm white colour. The light output is said to be 270 lumens, which is about as bright as a 20-watt halogen version; however, the electrical output is only 3 watts. As a special feature, the lamp base is equipped with a USB socket that supplies up to 2 amps of power.
