Subject: RE: BS: SAD/Winter Blues/Sun Shortage: Solved
Here in the UK I have been able to get 'white light' bulbs for some years. The effect of the house lit up at night is quite striking. It looks as though the sun is shining through it, and when the sun is shining I sometimes go to turn off the light when it is not on.

Although I do not have SAD, these bulbs are much better illumination, and don't make your eyes tired when reading or doing craftwork.

A bonus is that they are low energy, so take less power than a conventional bulb for the same amount of light.
