Does anyone know where one can buy the full spectrum desktop lights? I've checked out all the major lighting stores in Vancouver, but none had them. I'm looking for a light similar to the one in the link below. I need a full spectrum light to check colours in prints so that I don't sell clients prints that have fucked up colours. Thanks in advance!

maybe u can try aquarium stores, they have those "daylight spectrum" florescent tubes for fish tanks i think? downside is u need a florscent light if u dont have.

you could always buy online; there's quite a few canadian websites selling them

probably easier if even you can't find them (after checking everywhere out)

Thanks, guys. The problem with "full spectrum" fluorescent lights is that yes, they cover the full spectrum, but there are gaps where there are parts of the spectrum missing. The Ottlite looks promising...

I want to shop locally as much as possible...I hate shopping in-line.

Ottlite works really well. Just don't have it on late at night. Fuck your sleep up big time. I bought a couple to bring overseas and they're well worth it!

expensive. but I like the whiter look.

the point of full spectrum lights is to combat that SAD thing. some seasonal depression shit people get from dreary winters or being cooped up inside buildings too long.
