For more than 50 years, Verilux Desk Lamps have been trusted for their quality and reliability. Utilizing full spectrum lighting that was pioneered by Verilux in 1956, our line of desk lamps and desk lights is manufactured to the most exacting standards in the industry. Every Verilux desk lamp is guaranteed to deliver the brightness, contrast and clarity needed for reading, crafting, painting, hobbies and tasks. That's why Verilux was chosen by the gemocological industry for the pureness of light required to grade the worlds diamonds.

Better Light - GuaranteedVerilux full spectrum desk lamps set the standard for natural, "daylight" lighting. The entire line of Verilux desk lamps use full spectrum light to enhance the clarity and contrast of reading materials, projects, craft and task work. Full spectrum light improves vision while reducing eyestrain and fatigue. In addition, our patented flicker-free ballast and Optix™ glare control filter are unique in the industry, delivering daylight intensity, full spectrum light, without glare.All Verilux desk lamps are available in a wide variety of models and colors and are backed by the Verilux Risk Free Guarantee .Better Light - Traditional incandescent vs. Full spectrum

The best light for reading, tasks, artwork, crafting or other detail work 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" colors of the blue portion of the spectrum. Unfortunately for society at large, this has resulted in a general acceptance of poor, yellowish light as the "norm" in homes and workplaces alike.

Verilux pioneered full spectrum lighting in 1956

In 1956, Verilux founder, Howard Scott, developed the "Trucolite®" as a way to produce 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 floor 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 and has recently introduced a new line of spiral compact fluorescent bulbs for use throughout your home or office.

Verilux desk lamps - seven keys to quality

Verilux desk lamps are engineered to meet the strict requirements of our seven keys to quality:

• Full spectrum light
• Glare protection
• Style

Full spectrum light - Full spectrum light provides readers with better contrast, clarity and color separation.

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 desk lamps include either our Optix™ glare control filter or our Verilux grid diffuser. The Optix filter is exclusive to Verilux, and eliminates reflective glare while allowing just the right amount of light - for hours of comfortable use.
