Introducing the SableLux—A Revolutionary New Black Light Blue Fluorescent Lamp…

  • 45% more UV output per Watt than G.E.
  • 57% more than Phillips.

That should get your heart pumping!

With figures like these, the new SableLux may well be the world’s most powerful BLB fluorescent lamp. In fact, it was designed for maximum long-wave UV output, with a spectral peak at 368nm—perfect for ultra-bright fluorescent black light effects!

The SableLux is a T8, which means it only has a one inch diameter. The smaller diameter means more UV output because the phosphor coating is closer to the plasma arc at the center of the tube. (This plasma arc excites the phosphor coating, causing it to emit black light.)

In a direct output comparison with a G.E. F40T12/BLB (a four-foot, 40W T12 black light bulb—what you’d normally find at the hardware store), the SableLux is 15% more powerful at 368nm. It’s a whopping 25% more powerful than Phillips!

Energy Efficiency

But the SableLux is also more energy-efficient. So not only do you get a heck of a lot more output…you’re using less power to get it! Check this out…

In a per-watt comparison, SableLux slaughtered the competition. You saw those results at the top of this page: 45% more UV output per Watt than G.E.; 57% more than Phillips.

Professional Grade Quality

The SableLux is about more than just output and efficiency, though…these are quality lamps. They can handle being over-driven by VHO electronic ballasts, such as what’s in our Effects Master fixtures.

The Effects Master more than doubles a 32W T8 to 70W of pure jaw-dropping power. (A typical 40W T12 will be overdriven to 80W…but with less output than the T8.)

If you’re using a fixture with a VHO ballast, you’ll definitely want to use the SableLux. Try overdriving those cheap Chinese alternatives and you’ll be replacing lamps left and right!

SableLux lamps are rated for 8000 hours. This means you’d expect to replace one out of every five lamps after 8000 hours of normal use. (The life span will be somewhat less if they’re overdriven with VHO ballasts…but you’ll get a heck of a lot more total output over the life of the lamp!)

A Reasonable Price

At $25 for a four-foot 32W T8, these lamps are comparably priced. But in terms of quality, output, and efficiency, there is just no comparison. Here’s a summary of what sets SableLux lamps apart:

  • Handles VHO ballasts (unlike cheap Chinese brands.)
  • Long life (even in VHO fixtures!)
  • More long-wave UV output (making it a more powerful black light, which creates a brighter fluorescent effect.)
  • More energy efficient (in other words, more output per watt, which saves you money on your electric bill!)

Why spend more money to power lamps with less output? Switch to SableLux now, and see the difference in your power bill…and your fluorescent effect…right away!
