Lighting for Computer Room

[krwell]

Since I sit behind a computer most of the day I thought about getting some of the light bulbs that are suppose to simulate sun light. Anyone have any experience with these or better yet, what kind of light bulbs do you guys use?

Ehh, it's okay. I'm basically sitting in front of the computer for 7 months out of the year. I get real sunlight for the last remaining months in track!

Anyways, maybe you should just get the highest wattage lights you can find. I think i have a 100 w light in my room, but it doesn't seem to burn so hot anymore.

You could kinda set up some taning beds. Maybe standing vertically and open, shining at you.

60,000 deg Kelvin 10 kW SA Xenon lamps in a two by two meter matrix with 20,000 deg Kelvin "Radium" MH supplementary lamps will suffice. The Xenons are microprocessor controlled and can be linked to a GPS to simulate exact outdoor lighting patterns from anywhere on the globe. This system costs about $1.5M U.S. per 2400 sq. feet of space.

Sure, i do alot of lighting design. Full spectrum light bulbs are good. I would recommend some of those (buy the good ones) mixed with some others.

What kind of lighting do you have now?

I like soft light myself. The only lighting in my computer room is the aquarium on my desk, my rabbit's cage light the TV and my monitor.....that is all I ever turn on

1. How the hell do you know this?
2. Have you ever seen a setup like that?
3. Where and for what?

I'm just amazed...
