R40 / 120W Chromalux® Enhanced™ Full Spectrum Reflector Flood Light Bulb
$28.95 Per bulb | Beautiful Incandescent Light
Perfect for use in recessed fixtures, this is the ideal choice for residential applications that require beautiful, color-defined illumination.
The R40 120 Watt flood lamp uses the same pure neodymium glass envelope as a traditional Chromalux® incandescent but provides 18% more light and better lumen efficiency.
Features of Chromalux® Reflector Lamps:
-Neodymium glass filters out dulling light frequencies, revealing crisp light and vivid colors.
-Real silver reflector instead of a painted on reflector for superior light quality, luminosity, and brilliance.
-Outside frosting * instead of inside frosting for less glare and light that is softer on and better for the eyes.
-Chromed brass socket instead of an aluminum socket for superior lamp life and to prevent corrosion.
*All frosted flood bulbs by Chromalux® are carefully frosted by hand, not machine. Variations in frosting are normal and do not affect light quality.
Please always check the max-wattage rating of your fixtures - these are 120 watt bulbs and may burn out quickly if used in fixtures rated for less than 120W.
Benefits
Many of the benefits of Chromalux® lie in our signature neodymium glass, which purifies light to provide the ultimate soft, crisp, and pure natural light that helps you see better and makes you feel better, all while providing your body with the pure, full spectrum of visible (and non-visible light) it requires.
Feel Better: Well-being all year round
Chromalux® provides your body with the pure full spectrum light it was designed to receive by closely mimicking nature's sunlight.
Just like the quality of food we ingest, the quality of light we use can make a difference in our overall well-being and vitality.
Chromalux® bulbs contain more of the soothing red spectrum with no artificial peaks in the visible light spectrum, which is consistent with natural daylight, and unlike most types of lighting available today.
See Better: Eye Health, Visual Comfort+Acuity
Chromalux® bulbs are naturally low in flicker, but the real difference is seen through its signature neodymium glass, which filters glare and creates better contrast and definition between colors, tones, and textures, to finally allow your eyes to relax and see clearer. Thanks to these inherent chromatic balance and color discriminating qualities, Chromalux® has been a top recommendation for the low vision population since the 1980s, and has been shown to enhance visual acuity.
Enhanced Environments: Pure+Vivid Colors
Chromalux® is the original neodymium glass light bulb, which works by purifying the visible light spectrum - removing glare and dulling frequencies - while strengthening violet, red, blue, and green values. As a result, light is filtered, cutting glare and revealing the most beautiful crisp and vivid colors.
The Chromalux® light bulb brings the beautifully enhanced colors, texture, and contrast inherently present under natural sunlight, back into the home.
Under Chromalux® light, you'll notice colors, textures, and tones become more vibrant and your home more alive: very much like photoshop for real life!
See better, feel better.
That’s been our motto for over 60 years and for good reason: unlike harsh, artificial lighting that can strain the eyes and dampen the spirit, the natural light of Chromalux® does as all light should: provide a pure light to help you see better and feel better.
Chromalux® full spectrum light bulbs are great for people, pets, and plants alike!
Chromalux® bulbs are the best full spectrum light bulbs for humans. But your pets and plants will love our natural light too.

Experience life in full color
We invite you to discover the difference a simple light bulb can make.
The lighting you choose is the lens through which you view your surroundings. With such a profound effect on your well-being, motivation, and general outlook on life, your choice in lighting should never be an afterthought. Instead, we like to think of it as the glue that unifies all the other healthy lifestyle choices you make - like whole nutrition, exercise, supplementation, and mindfulness practices - into a beautiful, nuanced, and expressive life.
Enhancing people's lives and the spaces they live in since it was first created in Finland over 60 years ago, Chromalux® is a simple tool you'll love to include in your daily wellness arsenal.
Whether you'll use our light to read under, to work under, to paint under, or simply live under, flipping on the light of Chromalux® is like a warm, soothing hug that immediately uplifts your spirit.
As you'll quickly discover, Chromalux® isn't just a light bulb, it's a way of life.
Our Magic Element
Without ever turning it on, the most noticable quality of a Chromalux® light bulb is its lovely lavender glass. Responsible for this lovely tint and the pure light output of Chromalux® is the element neodymium.
A stunning lavender or blue color in appearance, neodymium is an earth element with some unique color enhancing and purification qualities.
Neodymium acts as a filter - absorbing dulling components of the visible light spectrum - like yellow - to purify your environment and naturally enhance colors and textures.
When used in Chromalux® light bulbs, these color enhancing and purification qualities are simply stunning.
Enhance your environment, see more clearly, improve your mood, and perhaps most importantly, feed your body real light.
What is the difference between a regular incandescent bulb and a Chromalux® incandescent bulb?
Other than superior bulb construction and quality, the main difference of a Chromalux® bulb is of course its unique neodymium glass composition, neodymium being the element that gives our bulbs their beautiful lavender appearance and outputs a pure and beautifully crisp vivid light. The Chromalux® bulbs gives off a uniquely purified light with a "rosy" feel. Colors appear more vivid, contrast is enhanced, and everything just looks and feels better!
What is the difference between reflector (R) flood bulbs and PAR bulbs?
While both are perfect for use in either recessed can or track lighting, the light beam of flood type light bulbs (R style light bulbs) have a less defined edge than a comparable PAR light bulb.
Flood bulbs are great for general illumination and covering large areas with light.
PAR bulbs are more like spot lights, with a defined and focused beam of light.
What is neodymium?
A common earth element, neodymium (pronounced nee-oh-di-mee-um) is compounded into the glass of all Chromalux® light bulbs and gives the bulbs their characteristic lavender colored glass. Acting as a sort of filter and magnifier, neodymium purifies the visible spectrum of light (particularly the yellow/green dulling wavelengths of light that our eyes are most sensitive to), while enhancing the appearance of reds, blues, and increasing contrasts between colors and tones.
Whereas most light bulbs (whether LED, incandescent, or halogen) produce dull light and can muddle colors as compared to natural daylight, Chromalux® and its special neodymium technology brings meaning to the phrase "seeing life in full color!"
Does this bulb have UV?
Chromalux® bulbs have a balanced visible spectrum of light, in addition to nourishing infrared. There is no UV light in these!
Is there blue light in these?
Like all incandescent light, the spectral balance of our light is very low in blue light and highest in red. We remind you that blue light in a full spectrum format — like that of sunlight or a full spectrum light bulb — is not an issue and actually necessary during the morning and daytime. The problem with blue light lies within unnatural emission, or blue light in isolation (device screens, generic LEDs).
