Constant back orders on the GE Dichromatic lights forced us to look for a new solution for acne light therapy around 2005.

We chose enLux LED because of their superior product, excellent service, and their commitment to the planet.

enLux LEDs are a good choice for many light and color therapy applications because they are affordable, easy to use, and they last about forever.

Where to get enLux LEDs?

I have made the full line of enLux LED flood lights and spot lights available on SmarterLights.com.

How to choose the right enLux high power LED for your light or color therapy use.

There are 4 different types of enLux LED lights.

1. The R30F.  (F=flood light) This is the standard one used for general light/color therapy.  It has as much light output or more as the 150 watt GE Dichromatic with an 80 degree beam – good for small and larger area applications, for example, good for both facial and back acne treatments.

2. The R320F.  This is a slightly less powerful and less expensive version of the R30.  Still plenty of power.  Choose it if you want to save some money, or travel a lot, since it’s smaller.

3. The R30S. (S=Spot light) All the power of the R30F focused by a fresnel lens.  Good for small area applications such as facial treatments and chakra zones.

4. The R30W.  (W=Wide angle flood light).  This is the same as the R30F except with a wide, 160 degree beam angle.  Great for full body light or color therapy treatments, or flooding a whole wall or ceiling with color for general color therapy.

How to Use enLux LEDs for Light and Color Therapy (General Guidelines)

enLux LEDs can be used in place of more expensive LED light therapy products for most applications where the same wavelength or wavelength range is called for.  For specific treatments, follow these guidelines first, then use the recommended treatment procedure for the LED product you are replacing.

1. These lights are very bright.  Always wear protective eye wear when using them, especially when using them on your face.  Keep your eyes closed even with the eye protection on, unless they’re block out glasses.

2. Use them a minimum of 6″ from your skin. enLux LEDs are much more intense than regular LEDs.  The treatment distance can be from 6″- 24″ away from your skin or more depending on they type of therapy you’re doing.  Many products on the market will direct you to use their light right against your skin.  With these lights, 6″ is as close as you should get.  Too much intensity is not usually good when it comes to light therapy.  There would be no danger in using them closer, just the possibility of rendering your therapy ineffective or worsening the condition you are trying to treat.
