Many studies have correlated academic performance with natural lighting. Studies at elementary schools in Wetaskiwin, Alberta by Dr. Harry Wohlfarth show higher combined academic and IQ test scores attributable to full spectrum lighting. (The International Journal of Biosocial Research, 5 no.1,6 no. 1,7 no. 1) In 1981, Wohlfarth and Cathrine Sam conducted a studied children with severe behavior problems and physical handicaps at Elves Memorial Child Development Center (Edmonton,Alberta). Both room colors and lighting was changed. Systolic blood pressure was reduced 20 points and children were less aggressive. When cool white tubes were reinstalled, blood pressure went up and behavior problems resurfaced. In another study, Dr. Fritz Hollwich examined stress levels as measured by the stress hormones ACTH and cortisol. This hormones were present in substantial quantities in individuals sitting under cool white lights but absent from those sitting under sunlight simulating fluorescents. Similar research was conducted in the UK and reported by The Lancet, the British Medical Journal. It’s true that daylight simulating light is not needed to suppress the excessive meletonin hormone that causes SAD. But people feel better under natural lighting. And there is a substantial hormonal basis to understand why. Unfortunately, many light box builders don’t use daylight simulating bulbs which are blue white. Some actually use yellow bulbs, other use cool white color temperature (4100K) bulbs. Don’t Judge a Light by it’s Lux “Lux” does not measure how much light a fixture actually produces. The total output of a light is measured in lumens. “Lux” refers to the light intensity at a given point from the light when looking in a particular direction. The closer you are to the light, the higher the lux value. But if you are looking away from a light, the lux intensity present at your eye will be less. This is unfortunate because photo biological effects result from light going through the light gate of the eye and striking the pineal gland buried deep within the brain. Some SAD light boxes prop up their lux values by restricting the directions that light can leave a fixture. So to get a light treatment, you have to keep looking directly at competative light boxes. Treat your self from all angles! Our fixture is designed with a prismatic lens to let light out from multiple angles. So you don’t necessarily have to stare directly at the light. We have cleverly angled the bulbs in our fixture to really let the light out! Often fixtures similar to ours just have the front of the Biax T5 bulb exposed to the front. What a waste! Light coming out the back of the bulb gets trapped! On the other hand, our POWER V diagonal mounting is creatively engineered to efficiently use light from both sides of the bulbs. This break through allowed the creation of this potent SAD Light. This innovative mounting geometry also gives more consistent light intensity across a multiplicity of viewing angles. Here is a 10,000 lux secret: Those suffering with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) are often told to sit in front of a 10,000 lux sources for 30 minutes per day. The problem is that 10,000 lux is a blinding intensity of light. Most people can’t look at 10,000 lux against the back ground of a dark room. It hurts your eyes. So you are forced to look away from the SAD light. Therefore, you are not really getting the light treatment you think. This is why we make our SAD treatment unit different. The sides of our light are transparent. This lets light out to illuminate the entire room, including the back ground of the light to make it easier to look at. Hence glare and contrast are reduced. It also improves the efficiency of the light. It’s the lumens that matter! Perhaps a better way to shop for a light box is on the basis of total light output which is measured in lumens. A lux of light intensity is is a .04 lumens of light spread over 1 square foot. Lumens help describe the ability of a fixture to illuminate the space your eye’s are in. We use extra two extra powerful T5 bulbs that make a whopping total of 9,600 lumens of light. That’s 5.45 times the light of a pair conventional (T12) full spectrum fluorescent 2’ tubes These ultra thin high output fluorescent tubes are the future of fluorescent lighting. If you are shopping for a light box, ask how many lumens of light is being produced. Check around. There are a few high end light boxes using dual T5 bulbs, but they routinely sell for $200 to $300! But Don’t Box Your Lumens In! First generation light box designs are horrible, they trap light in the box. Literally they box the light in and trap it. You might imagine just how much light you would lose by putting a light bulb in a shoe box. But that’s how other inferior SAD light boxes are designed. The inefficient designs of competing SAD box manufacturers have long since been discredited in the general lighting industry. CHEAP Replacement Bulbs Save your CASH$$ Replacement bulbs are only $8 and are a standard size and last 12,000 hours. Once you buy a fixture from us, we don’t rip you off with over priced replacement bulbs. In 14 years of business, we have always been really fair. So you will be able to get inexpensive spares from us now or later as a separate Ebay item. Buy Factory Direct: Get more Light for your Money! We Are Not the Middleman! We are not buying some light and marking it up! We are the actual manufacturer. So you get more light for the money. You may find it surprising that, most of our “patients” are dairy cows. The same excessive hormones that cause winter depression, suppress milk production in cattle. Heifers exposed to light put on more lean muscle mass and less fat. We’ve produced thousands and thousands of light fixtures shipped to farmers nation wide. We are telling you this because a typical farmer can’t afford to buy lights for 1000 cows if he doesn’t get results or if he has to overpay for lighting. That’s why we strive to make the most cost effective lighting possible. It also means that there are certain economies of scale that let us sell for less. We are already producing fixtures or parts of fixtures for other uses. So most of our overhead costs are paid for already. There is no need to overpay for Ott-Lites ™ OTT LITE is a trademark of Environmental Lighting Concepts. The latest OTT LITES feature High Definition Lighting Technology which is another name for prime color illumination. Prime color light is produced exactly how the eye was made to see it -- where the cones of the eye are most sensitive. This cheery bright white light makes people and furnishings look their best. This technology was actually developed year’s ago by Phillips, but is now being widely adopted. We offer a similar kind of natural light in an alternative brand that use rare earth phosphors to create a unique illumination that looks and feels like natural daylight.
