Verilux Full Spectrum Lighting and Full Spectrum Lamps

Full Spectrum Lamps

Verilux full spectrum lamps have set the standard for natural, "daylight" lighting for more than 50 years. All Verilux lamps use full spectrum light to enhance the clarity and contrast of reading materials, projects, craft work and task work. Full spectrum light improves vision while reducing eyestrain and fatigue. Importantly, our lamps are backed by the Verilux Risk Free Guarantee. All lamps are available in a wide variety of models and colors. Our patented flicker-free ballast and Optix™ glare control filter are unique in the industry, delivering daylight intensity, full spectrum light, without glare.

Better Light - Traditional Incandescent vs. Full Spectrum Lighting

The best light for reading, tasks, artwork or crafts is bright, natural, and glare free. Full spectrum light achieves this by delivering the "full" or "natural" light spectrum to your eye. Typical incandescent bulbs produce light only from the "warmer" red, yellow and orange parts of the visual spectrum, while completely missing the "cooler" blue portion of the spectrum. Unfortunately, this has resulted in a general acceptance of poor, yellowish light as the "norm" in homes and workplaces alike. See for yourself, and order a Verilux lamp today – risk free!

Verilux Pioneered Full Spectrum Lighting in 1956

Verilux founder, Howard Scott, developed the "Trucolite®" in 1956, in order to reproduce the full spectrum of sunlight indoors. The Trucolite was a large fixture with six colored fluorescent tubes that, together, closely replicated natural sunlight. His invention was so revolutionary that it quickly became the standard in the gemological industry for diamond grading - an industry which clearly values a precise assessment of clarity, contrast and color. Over the next 30 years, Scott undertook considerable research and development producing an earth phosphor formula – the Trucolite® formula – that could be deployed in a single fluorescent tube - with even better results. That special Trucolite® formula of full spectrum phosphors is the technology currently employed in all Verilux® full spectrum products.

Verilux Compact Fluorescent (CFL) Technology

The full line of Verilux lamps utilize our patented 27 watt "four finger" compact fluorescent bulb (CFL). This unique CFL, produces the equivalent of 150 watts of full spectrum light, lasts up to 10 times longer (10,000 hours) than incandescent bulbs, and consumes 80% less energy. Verilux is proud to have lead the lighting industry in the design and development of compact fluorescent technology. To emphasize our commitment to CFL, we recently introduced a new line of spiral compact fluorescent bulbs for use throughout your home or office.

Verilux Floor Lamps - Seven Keys to Quality

Not all lamps are created equally. Verilux provides a guide to evaluate your lamp and make your purchase decision based on seven specific criteria:

• Full spectrum light
• Glare protection
• Style
• Adjust-ability
• Accessories
• Guarantee
• Customer service

Full spectrum lighting

Full spectrum light provides readers with better contrast, clarity and color separation. Our older customers report that full spectrum light helps them overcome the visual impairment of cataracts and macular degeneration. In general, and for all ages, full spectrum light allows one to read longer, with better concentration and without headaches or eyestrain.

Glare protection

Full spectrum light is bright light. That's why all Verilux reading lamps include either our Optix™ glare control filter or our Verilux grid diffuser. The Optix filter is exclusive to Verilux, and eliminates reflective glare, allowing hours of comfortable reading.

Style

Verilux lamps are available in more than 50 different styles, colors and finishes. From our industry leading Heritage Full Spectrum Floor Lamp to our very popular all-purpose Original Full Spectrum Floor Lamp, we have a broad product line with lamps for all tastes and decors.

Adjust-ability

Every person's requirements are unique. That's why we've designed all our lamps to adjust in numerous ways. Pivoting heads, adjustable "Easyflex" gooseneck designs, ergonomic height adjustment and multiple light intensity switch settings make Verilux lamps easy to adapt to your surroundings.

Accessories

Verilux offers a convenient magnifier to facilitate the detail work of crafters, artists, readers or those with special vision requirements. The magnifier easily connects to all floor lamps. The Verilux utilty tray also connects to our floor lamps and is a handy tray to hold and organize your reading glasses, keys, wallet or other personal items.

Guarantee

We stand by our products - their design, their manufacture and their operation. All Verilux floor lamps are covered by our Verilux Risk Free Guarantee. It's risk free - if you don't absolutely love your new lamp - we'll refund the total cost of your purchase (including any tax or shipping) AND we'll also pay for the return shipping to us. We only ask that you return it undamaged in it's original box within 30 days of purchase.
