ESD-Safe WAVE LED is especially designed for use in static sensitive environments where electrostatic discharges can prove fatal for electronic components. The shade and arm are powder-coated with a metal-laced paint that measures 10^4Ω/sq. (conductive). The remaining components are molded in a material that measures 10^5-10^6Ω/sq. (static dissipative). Since the surfaces are no longer insulative, triboelectric charging results in drastically lower voltages, especially since any charge (under 50 volts) is uniformly distributed throughout the entire surface of the head assembly.
