Verilux Full Spectrum Specialty Lamps and Lighting

The Verilux line of specialty lamps, while diverse in application, all share one common trait. They use the patented, industry-leading, full spectrum lighting technology that Verilux pioneered more than 50 years ago. Full spectrum light is like daylight. It helps people see better, providing contrast for reading, higher definition for color matching and artwork, and clarity for crafting and task work. Verilux full spectrum specialty lights allow you to have full spectrum light wherever you need it. In your shop, in your mobile home, carried to your friends house, or even clipped to your favorite book!

Better Light - Traditional incandescent vs. Full spectrum

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.

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.
