SAD is a type of winter depression which affects an estimated half a million people in the UK every winter. This is usually between September and April.

One of the most common problems experienced during winter months by SAD sufferers is that of low light levels in the home. Typical household lighting offers a type of light which is very yellow in colour - referred to as Warm White (2700K). Through the introduction of the Pro-Lite "DAYLITE" range of lamps, this colour is replaced by a much crisper, whiter light, simulating Natural Daylight, or 6400K.

Morning light seems to work best for 'night owls' and evening light for 'morning larks'. Average use is one or two hours a day and the maximum about four hours. Use daily in winter and during dull periods in the summer, beginning in the autumn, when the first symptoms appear.
