The true sun-like color spectrum is fantastic. Would love to also see these available in differently shaped arrangements in addition to the strip modules so that they could work in a variety of situations and lamp housings

Bought these to build a custom light table for viewing and scanning (with DSLR) film negatives and slides. I've very happy with the lights. It has very strong and consistent light output, LEDs are tightly packed to avoid banding or light gaps. Installation and wiring was very easy. The only thing to consider is that these come in fixed length and you won't be able to cut them to size.

My original order got lost in shipping which was not waveforms fault and they resent one quickly when I contacted them. Unfortunately two of the WAGO connectors were broken when it arrived and one more broke when I inserted the wires. It almost seems like uv damage because the plastic is so brittle. I prefer soldered connections anyway so it's not so much of an issue but for a large scale project I could see this being a problem. I am very happy with the light output though. I'm using this in a custom light fixture for a planted aquarium. I can see my plants producing oxygen or "pearling" as we call it. Also it makes the tank look amazing in pictures

Exactly what our facility was looking for in a dimmable 6500k LED light strip. Very simple to install and having all the components easily available for order was super helpful.

High quality lights and easy to use. Fit the application perfectly

We tested in our lab 2 of the LEDs D65 & D50 with a light meter (control light environment) and the specs met out specification. We keep ordering both of the LEDs from Waveform to do new R&D projects and set up new light systems for testing.
We're very please with the quality of the LEDs and love the costumer service.

Thanks Alex for your customer support!

These LED strips provide amazing lighting for photographing art . The colour difference is incredible!

Brilliant bright light, almost identical to natural sunlight, extremely happy! Very helpful customer service as well!

I love painting outside in the summer, because the light is truly natural. These Absolute light strips make it impossible for me to tell the difference in my color charts. Nice work, Folks. Thanks for making my art easier.

I'm collecting Agates, a type of mineral which is built up by layers of different colors or color nuances, often in amazing shapes. There is one problem: In nature, they shine in bright colors. In a show-case or for photo-shooting instead, even under a CRI98 tube, the colors quickly fade to a muddy grey-in-grey or brown-in-brown. Obviously they need bright and optimal balanced(!) full spectrum light to enfold their beauty.

It was the outstanding website of Waveform Lighting, which called my interest with its detailed information all around lighting. I saw that here somebody has the courage to set the bar with CRI99 far above mainstream. I studied the information and contacted the company, whenever my knowledge was too short to understand the text correctly. The answers came quick, clear, competent, friendly and helpful. This encouraged me to take some money and order 2 modules (D50 and D65) for a test.

D65 can be compared with a spring middays light, with bright colors but without the interfering blue cast of high summer noon. D50 is a littlebit warmer, like early afternoon, not yet with a cast of yellow, but still with a clear, bright white. Most impressing was that the vivid colors not only appear in the focus of full light, but also in the shadow parts of the room. My Agates can enfold their full beauty. There is one small difference to sunlight: On a convex, polished mineral surface the sun reflects in one point. The LEDs instead reflect as a line or as a chain of points. I'm sure that most people won't remark this difference.

After the completely satisfying color check I added a simple test to detect hidden flicker: In the morning normally I pour my oat flakes under cheap LED light into a bowl. Due to the hidden flicker there is a strange stroboscope effect: I see chains of flakes as sharp objects . With the ABSOLUTE SERIES™ LED instead there is no such flicker.

Conclusion: These LEDs are absolutely outstanding!
