- Fred:
- The source (manufacturer) of full spectrum fluorescent bulbs is a company
- named DURO. Their claim to fame was the development of a tube that
- could be used in baby incubators to give the children full spectrum light.
-
- If I remember correctly the tubes have an effective life of only 12-18 months
- they will, off course, burn longer but the spectrum decays.
-
- Hope this helps - Steve
