Actulite is a new desk light designed to provide 'the same balance as natural daylight', according to the manufacturer. This lamp uses a patented multi-layer polarising lens that filters out glare and provides eight per cent more contrast than conventional artificial light. According to research, a one per cent increase in contrast provides a 15 per cent increase in visual perception, so the Actulite aims to achieve a 120 per cent increase in visual perception or 'seeing power'. If you find it difficult to work at a computer screen during the winter months, when the light is poor, you may find Actualite doubly helpful because the polarised light it produces is widely used to help people with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Actulite emits no ultraviolet radiation and causes no awkward reflections from computer screens. It is also designed to be cool running and uses approximately 80 per cent less power than a standard bulb. Priced 129.95 from Aura Corporation.
