Dichromatic lights are the light source of choice by holistic physicians and researchers in the field of photobiology.

Dichromatic lights are state-of-the-art in colored light technology. They provide the purest, most intense color within a very narrow frequency range. The sun produces a spectrum of color generated by refraction: most mechanical sources produce color by pigment subtraction. In contrast, dichromatic sources, which are most suitable for photobiologic effects, use materials of differing refractive indices to generate color. Both visual and non-visual pathways are employed.

In these Dichro-Color lamps, a dichroic filter is on the inside surface of the cover lens. The filter produces a specific color by selectively transmitting only the desired wavelengths of light, with virtually no energy absorption. Light of other wavelengths is reflected back into the lamp. Result: Dichro-Color lamps produce colors that are richer and clearer and far more intense than those produced by ordinary color lamps.

Dichro-Color bulbs are designed for a 120 Volt power supply.
