SAY HELLO TO VLAK 2



Powered by your old laptop. Take the warm light of an incandescent light bulb anywhere.


vlak 2 uses reclaimed batteries from discarded products to shine its cozy light anywhere in your home for up to 30 hours.









YOUR PERSONAL SUNSET

Raise your hand if you miss the warm glow of the classic incandescent light bulb. LED producers try to match the feeling by adding a red LED to the white LED. vlak uses the same principal but on a whole different level. A smart and unique algorithm distributes the current over 48 LEDs in four selected colours. Product designer Gregor van Egdom used sunlight as his inspiration. The result is unprecedented. The vlak dims like a natural sunset. Dim it again. And again. Romance in the palm of your hands…









POWERED BY YOUR OLD LAPTOP



Discarded products, like laptops, electric bikes and cordless vacuum cleaners contain valuable batteries, which are harvested, tested, selected and given a new life in vlak 2








I WANT SOME OF THAT MAGIC PLEASE

vlak 2 is currently in development and will be available the third quarter of 2018. You can pre-order vlak 2 for €599.

about

vlak is the brainchild of Gregor van Egdom

Gregor van Egdom (1986) is an independent industrial designer fascinated by the possibilities of electronics. He has worked freelance on projects as diverse as a CO2-capturing system, an integrated fire suppression system and a quirky product that makes sure you won't spend your meetings playing Candy Crush.
He launched vlak as an independent label of lighting products, of which the vlak 1 is the first.
