How does this compare with the "Verilux VT10WW1 HappyLight Liberty Lamp, 5K? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00K...

Hello, the VT01 is a compact lamp with an output of 2,500 lux of natural spectrum light. The VT10 HappyLight Liberty Lamp 5K has an output of up to 5,000 LUX of natural spectrum light in a compact design. The higher output means that session times can be shorter and the lamp can be a bit farther away and still be effective. The next step up in light output would be the HappyLight Liberty 10K (B0094HBU6I), which has a light output of up to 10,000 LUX of natural spectrum light. Have a bright day, Verilux Customer Service

I use Sylvania Doublelife 60W teardrop shape bulbs. Never had a problem. *Hint - the lamps themselves are almost too sensitive. If you touch it too hard, the wires inside it will break and I've never been able to fix that. I had to buy a new one when that happened.

I agree with analyst below. If the lamp is a Verilux lamp i will require a Verilux (expensive) bulb. If the lamp is from a different manufacturer, the Verilux bulb may or may not work. l'd buy the cheaper Treadmark lamp and get at least one bulb from them. Then try the Verilux bulb. If it doesn't work, perhaps you can return it for a refund or credit. Hope this helps.

The results with the 450W LED are very close to the results with the 1000 W HPS. The LED runs much cooler also. And no ballast is needed for it. Also electric costs are about $30 a month less. For me, it's a no brainer, unless you need the extra heat from the HPS.

No, a higher wattage doesn't help. It's bright enough for my taste, but if you don't like pink light, buy a white light. I wish I had waited for the out-of-stock white globe.

I accidentally deleted my answer. I saw your response. At their website it mentions that the other design flood is large size for easier relamping...meaning changing bulbs. When you do find the answer please post it so that we will all be more informed. This lamp has a ten year warranty too...mine did.

I've gone through 3 lamps and finally gave up and bought an led one from another company but I can't remember the name of the company. It cost about the same as the 2 bulbs I bought for the Fluval mini . . . I'd never buy that light again. What a rip off

I agree, I've purchased replacement bulbs several times (I've been using it for 12 years) and I've never found a better price than Verilux directly. Their customer service is also very good. Mine arrived broken one time and they sent out new ones right away.

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.

Compare the life expectancy, lumens, and the color temperature. Not all LED lamps are equal. My suggestion is to buy one of each and compare. LED lamps are all slightly different. Even Sylvania has different models that have similar housings, but different lamps and internal electronics.

I have the same model of lamp. But it is good to share with a fellow customer my experience with the 10 w whish has the same structure. I had a 10 w whish did not lite one day. I open and at the inside that this type of lamp has integated circuit with a non replaceble led bulb. So the best advice is to discard and replace it with a new one.

My advice is to get this very good lamp, but don't buy the touch operating version. Opt for the button operating one. Read the Amazon description. At the end it will tell you the right model number.

Good morning FA Cabs - This is a very strong and highly efficient lighting fixture. What lamp do you currently have in your floodlight? I look forward to continue to assist you with this - Abraham

It seems to me that your OxyLED lamp has a problem. I would send it back to be fixed or replaced. I checked mine again and it always starts and stops if I touch it right over the LED in a fast manner. If It were as erratic as yours is I would be dissatisfied for sure. I ordered on of the other mfgr's lamps that you mentioned. I'll see how it compares. As you said it is $20 less expensive which is a good feature too.Vic NettleI am in Tampa Florida, where are you, Yoon?

I have a pt-50lc13 and it has worked perfect, we have had our TV for about 10 years (yes I know we need to upgrade), and we have had to replace the lamp about 4-5 times. We went thru 3 in the first 2 years, but since then we have had much better luck. They are super easy to replace, and the cost has gone way down. You should be able to return if it doesn't work??? Good luck!
