When Sanyo’s Eneloop Lamp was initially introduced back at the end of June (we didn’t cover it as we don’t have the manpower to cover everything, alas…yet) it was greeted with some considerable fever but, at that juncture, its US release date and pricing was yet to be confirmed. Now we can advise that the US release is set for 11th September whilst those who are keen to get their hands on the Sanyo Eneloop Lamp can place advanced orders as of now.
In actuality, this doesn’t appear to be the official release date of the Sanyo Eneloop Lamp but it is the first date of US availability we’ve come across thanks to a listing at the JapanTrendShop – who are offing the Eneloop Lamp for a cool $200 exclusive of shipping.
For those uninitiated with Sanyo’s Eneloop Lamp, the cordless device, which comes complete with a charging station allowing you to recharge the 2 AA sized Eneloop batteries it requires, can be used both and an interior light as well as a flashlight and as well as offering white light the lamp can also bath you in a blue light that, apparently, offers healing qualities (yes, indeed).

Sanyo describe their Eneloop Lamp thus:
An “eneloop lamp” can be used 3 different ways: as an “Interior Light” that gently lights up a room from a table top, floor, etc. with a white lamp (2 modes to choose from: Clear Mode (high) / Fade Mode (low)); as a “Healing Light” that creates a healing ambience with a blue lamp in a space like a bedside (Healing Mode (continuous) / Flicker Mode (Flickering)); and as a “Flashlight” that comes on automatically when the unit is picked up due to a built-in acceleration sensor. High luminance LEDs are used for the light source. A white lamp lights up the surrounding space clearly in Clear Mode and may be used as a night-light in Fade Mode. A blue lamp that creates a healing ambience can be switched between Healing Mode for continuous lighting and Flicker Mode for gently wavering brightness. The lighting type can be selected to match the room ambience or personal mood.
When the lamp unit is tilted by 90 degrees or more, a built-in acceleration sensor senses it and the flashlight automatically turns on, making it possible to quickly obtain a light source in an emergency situation like a midnight earthquake without looking for a flashlight, as well as being able to use it as a daily-use handy light.
The Sanyo Eneloop Lamp can, as advised previously, be pre-ordered in the US as of now (though we should advise that, in being an import, the manual will be in Japanese).
