Full Spectrum Lights

Compact Fluorescent Full Spectrum Spiral Bulbs

Full spectrum lighting reduces the excessive yellow glare located in the centre of the spectrum, and brings a sense of purity and freshness to colours, objects and surroundings. This natural light fills spaces with a pleasing, colourful and relaxing feeling that maximises people's sense of well being.

  • A must for all homes, offices and workshops; recommended for green houses and pet habitats.
  • Teldon’s full-spectrum fluorescent simulates natural light. Because natural light renders colours perfectly, it is assigned a colour-rendering index (CRI) of 100. This is the reference standard for all high colour-rendering lamps, and Teldon’s lamps come astonishingly close, with a CRI of 91 to 93!
  • The closest thing to sunlight in a bulb Save as much as 75% energy over standard incandescent lamps
  • They last 10 to 13 times longer Flicker-free starting and silent operation
  • The highest Colour Rendering Index The highest light output per watt: 70 lumens
  • The longest life hour rating: 10,000 hours Two year warranty

The Healing Power of the Sun in a Bulb

Full Spectrum Light
Teldon Full Spectrum lights are designed to provide the closest optical equivalent to natural sunlight.
Teldon Full Spectrum lights produce a high CRI (Colour Rendering index) and colour temperature (measured in Kelvin) resulting in a full spectrum of light. This light is not a cool white, blue light or daylight colour. It is clear brilliant, white light and simulates the exact colour of sunlight at noon.

Health Benefits
In-depth studies have led to the realization that people depend on Full Spectrum Lighting for optimal health. While Full Spectrum light is available in abundance in the form of sunlight, the fact is that the majority of the world’s population now spends more time indoors creating a need for a new source of beneficial light.

Malilumination is a condition, discovered by John Ott, caused by the deprivation of sunlight to the human body. Just as plants will suffer when deprived of sunlight so will the human body. Teldon has found a solution for this to be the Full Spectrum light.

The key to “full spectrum”is how close you can get to the optics of natural light. Sunlight at noon (optimum light) has a natural CRI (colour rendering index) of 100 Ra and between 5000 and 5500 degrees Kelvin. Both CRI and Colour temperature are essential for the simulation of sunlight. Teldon Full Spectrum Lights are above the industry standard having a CRI value between 91-93 Ra, a colour temperature ranging between 50000-56000 Kelvin and light output or lumen ratings between 825 and 4300 lux. (See price list for more details)

When you simulate light that matches the optical brilliance of sunlight the pupils dilate. This response generates clearer vision and higher perception. The results are lower glare and eye fatigue. When light enters the eye it stimulates the pineal gland; producing hormones Serotonin and Melatonin.
