Natural light from the sun and sky has a balanced spectrum rendering colors
perfectly. However, most artificial bulbs emit light in only a narrow
scope of the visual spectrum. Aero-Tech's Full Spectrum bulbs are not
colored or coated which could wear-off. Instead, they are made with pure
neodymium which is a rare earth element mixed right in with our glass that acts
as a natural spectrum filter to diffuse the dull yellow / green parts.
This will produce a truer natural color which helps create a very pleasing
environment. Our glass is imported from Europe and manufactured here in
America with long lasting quality for you!

on-line customers. These bulbs are not only the best available on the market,

customers have been purchasing from all over the world. Once you try one
of these light bulbs, you will never buy a standard regular bulb again.
Traditional light bulbs have a life expectancy of only 750 hours. Our
5,000 hour light bulbs are more efficient, more durable, and last longer than
6 traditional bulbs. The 5,000 hour bulb will burn 24 hours a day for
over 208 days, nearly 7 months under normal conditions. The manufacturer
warranty guarantees that if one of our bulbs should burn out before its time
under normal usage, we will replace it free of charge. A Shipping charge
of 3.95 will apply. You cannot find another light
bulb on the market with this type of unconditional warranty. These are simply
the best light bulbs produced...and they are made with pride in the USA!
Helping the Environment!
In addition to saving money, you'll help the environment as well. Each
year, Americans alone discard 160 million tons of garbage. Already 16,000
or 80% of all landfills were at capacity and closed by 1993. The
conventional glass bulb takes about 500 years to biodegrade. By using
fewer 26-1 Aero-Tech bulbs, you'll be reducing the trash load in America's
shrinking and overflowing landfills.
More About Seasonal Affective Disorder
SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) is a type of winter depression that affects an
estimated half a million people every winter between September and April; in
particular during December, January and February.
What is SAD?
SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) is a type of winter depression that affects an
estimated half a million people every Winter between September and April, in
particular during December, January and February. It is caused by a
biochemical imbalance in the hypothalamus due to the shortening of daylight
hours and the lack of sunlight in winter. For many people SAD is a
seriously disabling illness, preventing them from functioning normally without
continuous medical treatment. For others, it is a mild but debilitating
condition causing discomfort but not severe suffering. We call this subsyndromal
SAD or 'winter blues.'
Symptoms
The symptoms of SAD usually recur regularly each Winter, starting between
September and November and continuing until March or April. A diagnosis can be
made after three or more consecutive Winters of symptoms, which include a number
of the following:
- Sleep problems: Usually desire to oversleep and difficulty staying awake
but, in some cases, disturbed sleep and early morning wakening
- Lethargy: Feeling of fatigue and inability to carry out normal routine
- Overeating: Craving for carbohydrates and sweet foods, usually resulting
in weight gain
- Depression: Feelings of misery, guilt and loss of self-esteem, sometimes
hopelessness and despair, sometimes apathy and loss of feelings
- Social problems: Irritability and desire to avoid social contact
- Anxiety: Tension and inability to tolerate stress
- Loss of libido Decreased interest in sex and physical contact
- Mood changes In some sufferers, extremes of mood and short periods of
hypomania (over activity) in spring and autumn.
Most sufferers show signs of a weakened immune, system during the Winter, and
are more vulnerable to infections and other illnesses. SAD symptoms
disappear in Spring, either suddenly with a short period (e.g., four weeks) of
hypomania or hyperactivity, or gradually, depending on the intensity of sunlight
in the Spring and early Summer. In sub-syndromal SAD, symptoms such
as tiredness, lethargy, sleep and eating problems occur, but depression and
anxiety are absent or mild. SAD may begin at any age but the main
age of onset is between 18 and 30 years. It occurs throughout the northern
and southern hemispheres but is extremely rare in those living within 30 degrees
of the Equator, where daylight hours are long, constant and extremely bright.
Treating SAD
Light therapy has been shown to be effective in up to 85 per cent of
diagnosed cases. That is, exposure, for up to four hours per day (average 1-2
hours) to very bright light, at least ten times the intensity of ordinary
domestic lighting.
Ordinary light bulbs and fittings are not strong enough. Average domestic or
office lighting emits an intensity of 200-500 lux but the minimum dose,
necessary to treat SAD is 2500 lux, The intensity of a bright summer day can be
100,000 lux!
A Report from the Mayo Clinic also says the following about Light therapy.
- This is the main treatment for many people with winter depression. In
light therapy, you sit a few feet from a special lamp that's 10 to 20 times
brighter than are ordinary indoor lights for 30 or more minutes each day,
usually in the morning. You can do other activities, such as reading or
eating breakfast, while sitting in front of the light. Light therapy
is easy to administer and has relatively few side effects. Nearly 70 percent
of people experience a reduction of their symptoms from daily light therapy,
and about 50 percent experience remission while undergoing light therapy.
Light therapy needs to be done daily until springtime, when the sun shines
for a longer period during the day. Lights from tanning beds can't be used
for light therapy, because tanning beds use potentially damaging ultraviolet
light.
Using The Aero-Tech 5,000 Hour Full Spectrum Bulb can aide in getting the
recommended amount of light per day needed to get rid of the winter blahhhs.
It is recommended you contact your personal physician with any concerns about
using light therapy for treatment.
