Why are my OTAKU flashing and/or blinking?
Our lamps are tested for the most up to date industry standards to ensure high quality across all of our products. If you are experiencing flashing and/or blinking, this is typically due to a lack of power to the lamp. This is almost always due to low battery power, and this can be fixed by either: (1) plugging the lamp in using the included USB cord, or (2) getting a new set of fresh 3 x AA batteries. If the problem continues after you have tried this, please contact us at support@otakulamps.com
How can I clean my Otaku Lamps?
Please be very careful when trying to clean your acrylic plates, as it is very easy to scratch and damage the plates if you are not careful. DO NOT USE A PAPER TOWEL OR ROUGH MICROFIBER CLOTH. In order to clean the plates properly, first make sure to gently blow away any noticeable dust or debris off of the plate. Then, take a clean camera lens cleaning cloth or a cloth used to clean glasses and carefully wipe the plate, making sure not to be too rough when handling.
Do you sell the plates separately?
For some of our collections, we do sell the character plates separately. Please check each product to see if the PLATE ONLY option is available for purchase.
