Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I own several Ott lights, including this one. It's great lighting, but here's what they don't tell you in their misleading ads.
1. Yes, it may be a 13W bulb, but the accompanying transformer is very hot, and Ott's service department refused to inform me how much electricity and heat this hot transformer generates.
2. The transformer is slightly heated even when the light is turned off! What a waste of electricity!
3. Full spectrum light health benefits, if any, are useful only if the ultraviolet rays are seen. But, there is some evidence that macular degeneration (blindness) can result from seeing light that are more bluish, and I would suspect even more so with bluish and ultraviolet.
I noticed some deterioration of my vision (more likely due to aging), called Ott's service department, and they denied that there are any possible eye health detrimental effects. How can they possibly know, when there are those suffering from macular degeneration who claim to the contrary. What a bunch of hypocrites to be making claims of healthy lighting and not advising there may be severe damaging effects.
If I ever get macular degeneration, Ott will certainly be blamed, because I worked with the Ott lite very closely. Why can't they just tell the truth and the user then can then take preventative measures?
4. These lights overall are expensive, expensive to replace, and very expensive on electricity and heat generated. I think the new type of low wattage bulbs that last much longer are usually superior.
