Daylight Indoors

Vivid Clarity

We have spent 35 years developing Serious Daylight Wavelength Technology™ to closely mirror the natural light spectrum.

The High Definition Light is the culmination of everything we have learned in 35 years about how to light a task. Every detail has been designed to enhance your hobby experience. 

Light, your way

With the intuitive dimmer wheel on the light head, perfectly adjust your brightness to suit your preferences and the ambient conditions.

Hassle-free adjustment

With its precision swivel joint and grab handle, fine-tuning the position of your light is a breeze - allowing you to have ultimate control over the illumination.

Personal control

Illuminate your book with accuracy with no more fidgeting to find the perfect spot. The beam adjustment wheel allows you to focus on your hobbies without distraction.

Flexible and stable

Focusing is now easier than ever; the strong, fully flexible arm lets you direct the light beam precisely where you need it.

Plug and play

Your light will arrive fully built by lighting engineers with everything you need. Simply unpack your light, plug it in and get stuck into your cherished hobbies.

Every detail considered

Every detail has been intricately designed to enhance your reading experience, no matter how big or small - allowing you to fully immerse yourself in your pastimes.

Text leaps off the page, allowing you to read in comfort for longer.

Light makes all the difference

Most lights are built with either the look, or a low cost in mind. What we focus on is your ability to see, and the impact of the light on your vision.

It has been my sole aim to combat eyestrain and fatigue by providing your eyes with simulated daylight indoors.

We build lights to transform lives, not to cut costs or to simply look good.

You might have noticed that it's very challenging to read small print under artificial light. The High Definition Light uses Daylight Wavelength Technology™ to help you see even the smallest print in comfort.

See colours come alive

Our eyes are the product of millions of years of evolution under natural light. This is why a great light is so much more than just brightness alone. If you want to discern fine details, see colours in their true light and combat eyestrain, you need light with the right concentrations of each wavelength in the visual spectrum. No modern manmade light source displays colour with a higher fidelity.

HOW IT WORKS

Daylight Indoors

Vivid Clarity

We have spent 35 years developing Serious Daylight Wavelength Technology™ to closely mirror the natural light spectrum to help people. Other lights are, by comparison often just pieces of decorative furniture. This illustration shows the TM-30 analysis, the gold standard for measuring LED light fidelity. It measures the availability of 99 colour hues and compares their closeness to natural daylight (100).

Text leaps off the page, allowing you to read in comfort for longer.

Light makes all the difference

Most lights are built with either the look, or a low cost in mind. What we focus on is your ability to see, and the impact of the light on your vision.

Since making a task light over 35 years ago for my mum who suffered with an eye condition, it has been my sole aim to combat eyestrain and fatigue by providing your eyes with simulated daylight indoors.

We realise that a Serious Light is a considered purchase. We build lights to transform lives, not to cut costs or to simply look good.
