High Definition Floor Light - Best Floor Reading Light

How Will It Help?

Maximise Your ability to see colour and detail

Great light is not about brightness alone. Our bespoke Halogen Daylight Wavelength Technology™
sheds a light spectrum that comes very close to daylight itself.

Reduce eye strain and read in comfort for longer.

Minimise The negative effects of inferior task lights

The wrong kind of light shining in the wrong place is not only uncomfortable
for your eyes but also bad for your posture.

A Serious Light is much kinder and more relaxing for your eyes.

Optimise Your posture and comfort

What we read varies a lot, so it is essential to have personal control.
A Serious Light can be adapted to suit your needs.

A great light takes the strain so your eyes and body don't need to.

Key Features

High Definition Floor Light - Legacy Edition

Halogen Daylight Wavelength Technology^TM

There is nothing quite like daylight - we've all experienced the urge to move closer to the window to see better. The Legacy Edition of our beloved High Definition Floor Light uses halogen Daylight Wavelength Technology™ to replicate aspects of natural daylight for which our tired eyes yearn.

Since inventing our first light over 35 years ago, Serious Founder Alex Pratt OBE has been leading pioneering research into shedding natural light indoors to radically improve our sight. This version of the High Definition Floor Light has now been superseded by the LED High Definition Floor Light.
10x More Light on your Page

Unlike multi-directional lamps, the Serious design focusses all of its colour corrected light on your page, making it many times brighter than traditional lights.

By comparison with a traditional 60W filament bulb, the High Definition Floor Light - Legacy Edition throws 10x more light onto your page.

This helps to correct the typical loss of light reaching the retina of two thirds by the time we reach 60 years old.
Accurate Colour Rendering

Our High Definition Floor Light Legacy Edition projects a CRI of 99, which means that it shows colours accurately, close to how they would appear in daylight.

This makes it good not just for reading, but artwork, needlework, and other non-reading hobbies.

Option 1

Base Type

Heavyweight Models

Weight13Ibs (6kg)

Base Diameter8" (20cm)

All the light but half the weight. The lightweight base is designed with a chic look, and designed to be easier to move and bend. Perfect for limited spaces on the floor.

Option 2

Finish

Black

The brass base metal is double sprayed and double-baked to produce a durable matt black coating for the fully flexible stay-put arm.
Nickel

A 15-20 micron brushed nickel coating on the brass base metal gives a sharp hi-tech brushed finish.
Brass

The 20-30 micron of zapon-treated brass on brass provides a long-lasting classic look, and the real wood mahogany-effect handles.

Option 3

Body Finish (lightweight only)

The body finish refers to the colour of the head, base and rigid stem of the lightweight lights.

Black

The sleek black body finish is our most popular option, chosen for its minimalist industrial chic aesthetic. Choose from black, nickel or brass flexible arms with this body finish.

Heritage White

The stunning heritage white body finish is an elegant choice, boasting a delicate off-white hue which blends in perfectly with neutral surroundings. Available with nickel flexible arm only.

Option 4

Carry Handle (heavyweight only)

A real wood handle adds a unique touch to our heavyweight floor lights. The black handle is usually paired with our black or nickel finishes. For a more traditional look and feel, our real wood mahogany-effect carry handle combines well with the brass arm finish.

Option 5

Dimmer Function

The dimming function allows for your light to be finely adjusted to your specific needs. Turn down the light intensity when a softer light is required, then with one finger adjust it back up to full brightness when you need more light to get clarity.

These Floor Lights are dimmable as standard.
Simply adjust the red dimmer wheel located on the back of the light head to alter the intensity of the light.
