There is a fairly long thread on the lumiport pen light, which uses red/blue light here. It can output red and blue light simultaneously. Most people seem to have had pretty good luck with it. I just recieved mine today so hopefully I will too.

These lamps need to plugged into a socket. Where is the acutal part that plugs into an electrical outlet? I'm thinking about buying a blue light and using it daily, possibly buying a redlight. But I've red the red lights arent good for kids, I'm 15. Any info is appreciated. Thanks.

i've been using the sci/art system for a few weeks and it has worked great so far. Breakouts have reduced a lot.

Plus, i think i found out where you can get the sci art bulbs for cheap...

i'm still a little iffy about the safety of using these flood lights on your skin.........but those are the exact same ones sci/art uses.

I wonder how the Infared Bulbs work? Only problem is they emitt a lot of heat and not sure if thats good on the skin?

You know I don't know if this may be a good idea but according to my logic I say that eliminating acne is killing the bacteria which the lamp does...but also eliminating skin blockages...Maybe using salicylic acid and glycolic acid would reduce those clogged pores while the bacteria die out. Just a suggestion!

How do know that the GE bulbs are the correct wavelength? I couldn't find any information regarding wavelength.

Sorry to bump such an old thread but I found this through Google and I was wondering the exact same thing about the GE bulbs found in the following links:


EDIT: It seems it won't post the links, perhaps because I am a new member. It's the red and blue GE bulbs found in a previous post listed at bulbman.com



How do you know that the red bulb is 660nm and the blue is 415nm?
