    Re: SunLike LED inside the home, studio, streetlights...

    A question for those with a greater knowledge of lighting than myself, which should prove to be most of you, has anyone ever tried the black compact fluorescent bulbs to reproduce an adequate light source for alternative printing techniques??

    Thanks Randy, they are more like the ones used in the softboxes, but I have never seen them used in a uv exposure box. Thought perhaps somebody may have experimented with them

    Normally used as a bank of tubes, not screw-in bulbs.

    Look at the spectrum in the datasheets.

    Randy,
    Yuji is using violet in their VTC series, scroll to the bottom to see where it is mentioned. I don't have enough knowledge to know if we are comparing apples with apples.

    Hi, lurker here also interested in "sun-like" LEDs. Came across Waveform Lighting - looks like they also have "violet" in their LEDs - anyone tried their products?

    Drew, I ran a small printing business catering to graphic artists and their clients. I installed the highest CRI lights as close to daylight color temp as I could get. In a very short time, they paid for themselves. An unexpected benefit was that my employees said they felt better and less fatigued by the end of the day. I would be cautious to see the CRI and spectral output of any LED before installing it for a critical application...or even my home for that matter. - Andy

    Yes, lighting affects mood, and our physiology is geared to real sunlight. I'm skeptical about LED's having "arrived" yet... Pasco? My uncle had a ranch near there. But he was overseas as a Peace Corps engineer most of the time in third world countries, but returned in his 90's to work the ranch and got a sunstroke - stubborn fellow; but that's what it takes to get officially inducted into Explorers Club like he was. When I was young my Dad took me out of school every Fall for long geology drives throughout the Northwest, which included that area. But I need my truck AC replaced before taking any drives up that way again.
