What is a Microsun? And why does it rise?
Our unique light is optimized for older eyes. Combining rare earth metals with smart electronics to drive a quartz arc tube, the Microsun bulb takes almost a minute to “rise” to true full spectrum light. Combined with dual SunStyle LEDs, the 7,000 Lumen output of a Microsun outshines eight 60 Watt bulbs. A MIcrosun is a mini-sun lighting up your home with better, brighter light!
Read without your readers, read longer, put down the magnifying glass and read without fatigue for hours.
It’s not just for reading. Crafting, scale model building, jewelry making, quilting, needlepoint and sewing…anything that requires visual concentration will be easier to do for longer under your Microsun!
Your light is not a reading light.
When Thomas Edison invented the incandescent light bulb, he was replacing a candle. Considering that “candlepower” is till used as a measurement, it would seem like he did just fine.
As for inventing a true reading lamp, well…that didn’t come until much later when we invented the Microsun lamp. Reading under a Microsun is more like reading in daylight under the sun, than reading with your regular lamp and bulb, which was designed to replace a candle.
“Readers” aren’t the answer.
While younger eyes don’t have any trouble reading with standard light bulbs, our older eyes yellow over time and need more light in the blue/green spectrum to make up for this yellowing of the corneas. Microsun brings back all the colors with our true full-spectrum light, optimized for reading.
A Microsun for every decor.
While our most popular light is our Library of Congress collection, modeled after those lamps designed specifically for the Library of Congress reading rooms, we have a lamp to fit any unique style. SEE THE LAMPS and choose the one that best fits your home or office.
We make it easy.
with our 30-day return policy, you can try a Microsun at home and decide for yourself is your new Microsun is the answer to your eyestrain. You can even pay for your lamp in installments – call for details. Microsun lamps are always warranted for 2 years, so you can buy with confidence.
Don’t just take our words for it.
See what satisfied Microsun users say about how Microsun light has made a difference…

Are you like most of us and struggling to figure out what gift to get Mom that can possibly convey how much she means to you? There are so many options to choose from, and yet often miss the mark for that perfect gift for Mom.
Flowers? Lovely for a few days, and then they fade.
Jewelry? If she’s like most moms, she knows what she likes and buys it for herself.

Books? Keepsakes? Lovely gift ideas. Even better…Light that will help her see them better and enjoy them longer!

Do find yourself experiencing tension headaches and eye strain while working at your desk?
Are your eyes tired after going over your household paperwork?
Better lighting can help.
Your workspace may not have the light you need to optimize your productivity, reduce eye strain and tension headaches.
Lighting solutions.
Several factors contribute to your overall light experience, color temperature, brightness, and intensity. Lighting solutions can include more light, adjusted color temperature lighting and focused lighting on your task at hand.
Many offices are still in the dark, using harsh fluorescent lighting in office spaces which can result in mood changes and decreased productivity. Often we need more light than what we are using in our work spaces. When we aren’t getting the light we need, then it can be more difficult to stay focused without tension. Light that is more naturally attuned towards the colors of the sun can be easier on your eyes…allowing you to work for longer, with less eye strain.
Color temperature is important, and having options to adjust color temperature enable you to fully customize your workspace to suit your lighting needs. This allows you to find your desired warm or cool color temperature to help your eyes see easier.
Your light needs to be where your eyes are focused or it won’t be as effective. Light directed on your work seems like an obvious solution; and yet, how many people are working without desktop lighting and instead relying on the indirect ceiling lights for office light? Directly focused light on your paperwork will make a difference you can see!
Microsun has your lighting solutions.
At Microsun, we specialize in lighting solutions for you and your workspace.
For more light, Microsun’s traditional 8x brighter light will give you light modeled after the mid-morning sun engineered to increase clarity and reduce glare. With three light levels, you’ll chose from ambient room lighting to high-output light focused lighting on your workspace.
See Microsun. High-output lighting solutions.
If you are looking for color temperature control, then Microsun Arc light is for you. It truly is a desk lamp like no other. Crafted from one solid piece of aerospace grade aluminum, the Arc is the perfect addition to your desktop workspace. With fully adjustable color temperature and brightness levels, you can choose the light that works best for you. The Arc makes a stunning addition to any desk or table and gives your eyes the customized light that works best for you!
See the Arc. Your color temperature lighting solution.
For spaces that require a bit more lighting directed onto your task at hand, the ellypse is the perfect any space lamp. With a tiny footprint, the ellypse will have an epic impact on your desk or table top. Easy to operate capacitive touch technology gives you light, at the touch of your fingertips. Four light levels enable you to adjust your brightness levels to find the one for you. This lamp is light and portable, so you can even take your light on the go!

The first Monday after a time change is difficult, especially when we’re “springing forward”. Losing that precious hour of sleep in the middle of a weekend has lasting effects that can carry over for several days and weeks.
Our bodies become used to our schedules, and when time is adjusted, we often find that we have some catching up to do.
Did you know that one of the things that helps us adjust to changes in time is better, brighter light?
Use light to your advantage. Light is the strongest cue that helps adjusts our internal body clock. When possible, expose yourself to bright light early in the morning upon awakening.
Source: 11 Sleep Tips to Help You Adjust to Daylight Saving Time
When we’re waking up to dark morning, it can be difficult to get our bodies moving, especially when our internal clocks think we should still be in a nice warm bed. Bright light can help us wake up and ease into the day. The best light for this is light that mimics the natural light of the sun.
Microsun light is modeled after the sun. With 8x more light than your standard bulb, the brightness of Microsun light will help you “wake up” and face the day, when you’re adjusting to Daylight Saving Time, and every other day!
Did you know that Microsun light rises like the sun? When you turn on your Microsun, the light takes about a minute to come to full brightness, allowing your eyes to gradually adjust to the brightness of the light. It’s like a sunrise in your home!
“It was like sunshine just poured into my house!”
-Peter in Welches, OR
