A Serious Light head lighting a chart that compares the colour fidelity of Daylight Wavelength Technology™ with ordinary LEDs

Can you tell one blue from the next?

Sky and sea pieces differ by the smallest shade, and under an ordinary LED, short of the deep reds, close colours look alike.

Daylight Wavelength Technology™ reproduces daylight with 98% accuracy, so every shade looks the way it does in the picture on the box.

See what better light does for you

Keep puzzling long after the daylight has gone.

Stand the light beside the table and bring the head over the middle, so the pieces are lit from above and do not throw shadows on each other.

Widen the beam of the HD Original or the HD Pro across the whole board, and narrow it again when you are down to the last few pieces.

I am delighted with my light. As well as reading it makes such a difference with my jigsaw puzzles.

The arm is guaranteed for life, so the head stays exactly over your puzzle.

The specialist components in a single HD Original cost more to manufacture than many entire lamps sell for. That is where the price goes.

The HD Original and the HD Essential are hand-built in Aylesbury, and all three come with a five-year warranty and our team’s help with advice and repairs. Each one is made as a reliable tool for people who want the best light they can have.

What people ask about lights for jigsaws.

Will it light a whole puzzle table?

Turn the ring on the HD Original or the HD Pro and the beam opens out to 61cm, which covers most of a table-sized puzzle from a floor light standing beside it. Keep the head above the table and the pieces will not throw shadows on each other.

Compare the beams
Will it help me tell similar colours apart?

Many puzzlers find it does. Daylight Wavelength Technology™ scores 98 out of 100 for colour accuracy, where daylight scores 100, so close shades stay distinct.

Should I choose a floor light or a table light for jigsaws?

A floor light stands clear of the table, so the whole surface stays free for the puzzle. A table light suits a smaller board with room beside it.

See the table lights
Why does a Serious Light cost more than an ordinary lamp?

Because of what is inside it. The specialist components in a single HD Original cost more to make than many complete lamps sell for, and all three lights come with a five-year warranty.

What if it is not right for me?

Try it at home first. The HD Original and the HD Pro have a 90-day home trial and the HD Essential has 30 days, and if it is not right for you we collect it free from any UK mainland address.

How the home trial works

Try it on your next puzzle at home for up to 90 days.

Start a new puzzle with it and see how the sky pieces sort.
