À propos de l'entreprise
À propos de Serious Readers
Écrit par l'entreprise
Serious Lights for Serious Readers. Daylight reading lights for people who want to see detail and colour without straining to see.
Reading gets harder in the evening, and most people put that down to their eyes. Often it is the light. An ordinary bulb or LED is built on a blue chip, so it looks white while leaving gaps across the spectrum, and your eyes work to fill them in. You get glare across the room while the small print stays hard work. Daylight has no gaps in it, which is why reading by a window on a clear morning is easy.
What a Serious Light does
Rebuilding daylight indoors is the only thing we have done for forty years. Daylight Wavelength Technology™ reaches 98 per cent colour accuracy across the full spectrum, and an HD Original puts up to 7,200 lux on your page at 50cm, which is about twelve times the light you get from an ordinary 60 watt bulb at the same distance. The beam adjusts from a paperback to a full broadsheet, and the dimmer remembers the setting you read by.
The range
We make floor lamps, table lamps and wall-mounted reading lights, in Black and Heritage White. The HD Pro is the most adjustable, with a flexible arm, a remote handset and a cordless option. The HD Original is the one most people choose. The HD Essential is the simplest mains light we make. The HD Mini and the HD ROAM are cordless and portable, for reading nowhere near a socket. The HD Original and HD Essential are hand-built in Aylesbury, around fifty a day.
What people read by them
Books and newspapers, the crossword, the small print on a medicine bottle, sheet music, a jigsaw spread across the dining table, needlework and sewing, model making, and the paperwork nobody enjoys. Anything where the difference between two colours matters, or where the type is smaller than it used to be printed.
If your eyes need more light than they used to
More than 500 independent opticians recommend our lights, and many owners come to us living with macular degeneration, cataracts or glaucoma. For many people, more light of the right kind makes a page easier to see. A reading light does not treat an eye condition, and we do not suggest otherwise. There is growing evidence on the wider effects of the kind of light you read by, which we set out on our research pages rather than in our selling.
Trying one at home
The HD Pro and HD Original come with up to 90 days to try at home, and the rest of the range with 30. If it is not for you, send it back free, and on the mains floor and table lights we collect from any UK mainland address. The HD Pro, HD Original and HD Essential carry a 5-year warranty, and the HD Mini and HD ROAM carry one year.
Who we are
Serious Readers is the reading light brand of Serious Brands Limited, in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire. There are over a million Serious Lights in 93 countries, in homes and in places where seeing clearly is the job, including the British Museum, operating theatres and Heathrow. 99% of people who try one keep it for the difference it makes.
Call 0800 032 9366, Monday to Friday, 8.30am to 5.30pm, or email hotline@seriousreaders.com.
Why people choose a Serious Light
Écrit par l'entreprise
- A brighter bulb does not do the same job
- An ordinary bulb scores 40 out of 100 on deep red. Ours scores 92, which is why colours and small print look different under it.
- We have made nothing else for forty years
- Alex Pratt built the first one for his mum, whose sight was failing. There are now over a million in 93 countries.
- Up to ninety days to change your mind
- Try it at home and see the difference for yourself. If it is not for you, send it back free.
A guarantee backed by forty years
5-year warranty, 90-day trial
Five years on the HD Pro, HD Original and HD Essential, one year on the cordless lights, and up to 90 days to send one back free.

Excellent product that does what it says!
All the information on the website is very clear, what arrived at our door just a couple of days after ordering is exactly what we expected and hoped for.
The standard lamp is perfect for my needs since being diagnosed with NAAION, I can adjust the brightness according to my needs and create the right environment for whatever I am doing.

Quality product from a great Company.
I have bought items from this caring company before so knew I would be receiving a quality product, and if there was a problem it would be dealt with swiftly and efficiently. Fortunately, there were no problems with my recently purchased rechargeable table light - I 'm delighted with it.

Hi Julia. Don't you just love it when a plan comes together. Thanks for sharing. Alex (Pratt) Founder
Premium product meets expectations
These are certainly expensive lights to buy, but are certainly worth the premium price in terms of quality - it does do what it says in the ads. The ordering process was easy, the delivery was quick (and even faster than promised) and the quality of the packaging for a delicate product is exceptional. Delighted with my purchase.

Hi Graham. Delighted that it makes a difference for you both. Thanks for sharing. All the best. Alex (Pratt) Founder
Very pleased with the product
Very pleased with the product, the third I have purchased from you. Very securely packaged, with clear instructions for setting up. Easily set up and operated perfectly.
My only negative is not the product. Delivery by DHL was not undertaken by the care the product required. Packaging damaged, thankfully the strength of the packaging protected the product inside.
