Why Lighting Matters in Norway
Norway's extreme light variations—from midnight sun to polar nights—make our circadian rhythms especially vulnerable to artificial lighting disruption.
Most modern LED bulbs emit high levels of blue light, which signals "daytime" to your brain even at midnight. This suppresses melatonin production and disrupts your natural døgnrytme, making it harder to fall asleep and reducing sleep quality.
The solution? Use lighting that changes with your natural rhythm—energizing blue-reduced daylight in the morning, and warm amber/red tones in the evening.
The Daytime Difference: 98+ CRI Blue-Reduced Bulbs
Not all "daylight" bulbs are created equal. Standard LEDs have harsh blue peaks that strain your eyes and cause oxidative stress throughout the day. Our daytime bulbs feature a blue-reduced spectrum profile that's much closer to natural sunlight.
With a CRI (Color Rendering Index) of 98+, you get crisp, true-to-life colors without the harsh blue spike. This means less eye fatigue, reduced oxidative stress, and a more natural lighting experience during your daytime activities.
98+ CRI Rating
See colors as they truly appear—nearly identical to natural sunlight
Blue-Reduced Spectrum
Smooth spectral profile without harsh blue peaks found in standard LEDs
Less Oxidative Stress
Gentler on your eyes and cells throughout the day
E27 Standard Fitting
Fits most lamps and fixtures—easy replacement for your current bulbs
Why choose blue-reduced daytime bulbs over standard LEDs?
Standard LEDs have sharp blue peaks that cause eye strain and oxidative stress. Our 98+ CRI blue-reduced bulbs mimic natural sunlight more closely, providing better color accuracy and gentler light for all-day use without fatigue.
When should I switch to evening amber lighting?
Start using amber (2000-2700K) lights 2-3 hours before bed. This reduces blue light exposure during your melatonin ramp-up phase, helping you wind down naturally while still maintaining comfortable visibility for reading or family time.
Are red/blue-free lights too dim for practical use?
Not at all! Our red-spectrum options (1600-1800K) provide functional illumination for bedrooms and late-night activities. They're designed for maximum circadian protection without leaving you in the dark—perfect for the final hour before sleep.
How does the multi-mode bulb work?
With a simple built-in switch, toggle between three spectra: full 4000K for mornings, blue-reduced 2700K for afternoons, and blue-free 1600K for evenings. One E27 bulb handles your entire døgnrytme—no need for multiple fixtures.
Will these bulbs fit my existing lamps?
Yes, most are standard E27 screw-in bases that replace your current bulbs directly. Check product specs for exact fittings. They're energy-efficient LEDs designed for easy upgrades in Norwegian homes.
How soon will I notice improvements in my sleep?
Many notice easier wind-downs within 3-5 evenings of using amber/red lighting. Full døgnrytme benefits, like better morning energy, develop over 1-2 weeks with consistent use throughout the day.
What's the benefit of high CRI (98+) in daytime lighting?
CRI measures color accuracy—98+ means colors look vivid and true, like under sunlight. This enhances mood, productivity, and visual comfort, especially important during Norway's long indoor winter days.
Can I use these with blue light blocking glasses?
Absolutely! Pair daytime blue-reduced bulbs with clear/yellow glasses for screens, and evening red lighting with orange/red lenses for complete protection. It's the ultimate circadian optimization combo.
