How does it compare to the Bell & Howell natural spectrum floor lamp?

I'm not familiar with Bell & Howell's lamp but I can tell you I liked my Verilux so much that I bought another one. It's perfect for reading and doing crafts and can be moved around easily. A friend saw my lamps in my home and bought two from Amazon also. They have the best price.

I am not familiar with the other brand....I am happy and satisfied with the verilux I purchased

This is the second Verilux lamp I bought - the first one is something like 15 years old and still going strong - but I have no idea what the B & H lamp is. Very happy with the Verilux.

We have never had a Bell & Howell so can not compare .Will say that the Verilux natural is one of the best lamps we have owned .It gives out great light for reading or doing anything up close .

I have no knowledge of the Bell & Howell product that you describe. Do no buy this Verilux Natural. It makes the reader very hot.

These last longer than EICO-brand lamps (about 2-3x) but these are not the Hella long-life lamps. The long-life is H83135041. These last substantially longer than any others we have used. They are also not quite as bright and have a slight yellow tinge to them. We used these bulbs in machine tool lamps and it requires $10 in labor to replace them, plus machine down time. The long life Hella or the unit in question here we find are both good solutions. We currently are in trials with GE bulbs, but have no results at this time.

Sorry, I gave this as a gift and he's very happy with the light but no experience with the other light to make a comparison.

Sorry to say, I can't answer your question. All in all I have been very satisfied with this lamp. It has been used daily for 4 months now.

I would say it is right in between the two colors. You can dim the light up and down to fit you preference too.

The lamp has a dimming dial that you control how bright to make it. I would say the brightest is equivalent to a normal desk lamp but it's is a blue shade of light not like normal fluorescent lighting it's much easier on the eyes

It's right between the two. I spent a long time shopping for the right color. These do it. Anything right around 4000k is the spot for indoor lighting unless you're displaying jewelry.

I have the 900, also have two head lamps of the 600 version, cool and natural. I use them about 98% of the time, they are a little brighter then the 900, one is 1090 lm ver my 900 can.t tell the diff. if both cool white.

I would say this is the type of light to give you "bright daylight". It is fantastic for reading and making a well lit room as you can choose the wattage you want. 2 lamps in a room that size should be sufficient .

The Ott light is brighter and is very easy on the eyes. The bulb lasts a long time, my previous bulb lasted 10 years of daily use. I love this lamp.

I have purchased 2 of these lamps. The first one is now about 7 years old and stiil works great. I saw the same model on sale last fall and purchased a second one. I rate this purchase at 5 stars! It works great; no problems! Standard plug, good light, and it has remedied my S.A.D. side affects.

Unsure as to the difference. But I do know these lamps rock; worth the money no matter what price your paying.

Mine died recently too, but since I was trained in electronics/electricity in the Marines, I thought I'd just fix it. Nope, the lamp is built so that when it dies, you just need to toss it. After 8 or 10 years, I just ordered a new one from Amazon. Bell and Howell is a very good name in the industry, but I guess, as in all things, you just have to know when to say when. Save yourself a headache, and buy a new one.

Mind did it too. I returned it and got one at Bed Bath and beyond. It is round with light around it. The lighting is much better and it was the same cost.

It's made well enough for a floor lamp. The base is heavy enough that it doesn't fall over even if the gooseneck is at a 90 degree angle. As for value, it takes any lightbulb with a standard socket. So I was a little bummed when I got it. If you are looking for a "daylight" lamp to help with SAD symptoms, you could save a LOT of $$$ just buying the lightbulb and screwing it into any old fixture.

It honestly depends where you got the nightlight. I ordered one on Amazon that is crap quality. It came with the wrong adapter and plug in. And it really just doesn't work right. The glow is super dull and goes away almost immediately. Someone purchased me one of these lamps as a gift from bed bath and beyond also, and it works perfectly. The glow is bright and lasts for 10-20 minutes. The settings are different and I can choose to set it to one specific color, and it is a product I would recommend. Advice to all, do not order this product online. It might be cheaper, but it will definitely be MADE cheaper... It honestly depends where you got the nightlight.

I've had the TT-AL09 120w for over a year now that has just the blues and whites. I agree with GCO and definitely look at a full spectrum fixture if you will have light hungry corals. I hope TaoTronics considers building a full spectrum light again.
