Full Spectrum Light Bulbs
Home » Lighting & Fans » Specialty Light Bulbs » Full Spectrum Light BulbsFull spectrum light bulbs produce color-corrected light that simulates the brightness of outdoor light at noontime. This light is measured by CRI (Color Rendering Index) and Kelvin Temperature. True color light and optically balanced light are produced by the ability to get as close as possible to the makeup of natural light.
The sunlight simulation of full spectrum light bulbs causes the pupils in the eyes to become smaller, which allows clearer vision and higher perception. This results in lower glare and less eye fatigue. This sunlight simulation also reduces levels of melatonin and cortisol, the stress hormone.
Full spectrum light is not the actual color of daylight . Instead, it is a white light, clear and brilliant, that is the exact color of sunlight at noon. This has been proven by the many people who have been helped by full spectrum lighting. We spend so much time indoors working, and it's even worse in the winter when the days are shorter. This makes our lives deficient in sunlight. Full spectrum lights bulbs can remedy this problem, and they are often used to treat seasonal depression. In fact, full spectrum light is the most effective source of light used to treat seasonal depression.
Color temperature ratings are what set apart full spectrum light bulbs from other bulbs. Full spectrum light bulbs have the highest optical performance of any light therapy available today, while delivering the most light and the best intensity.
