It is a truly sad thing when people do not believe the manufacturer of a
product when they talk about their product - they know, the average person
does not know. It is forgivable to a point; trust is something many are not
used to. Remember, not every company lies to sell products and it is more
likely that you are being told the truth.
As far as safety goes, it is a non-issue. Read the manufacturers info
regarding the wavelength of the lamp in question then go to a another
source if you must. I am sure there are organizations on the web that are
reliable. Ask them about this. After more than 30 years of working with all
types of lighting products, I have yet to have any problems with exposure.
And I remember using lighting products that would scare most of you to
death. I have yet to hear about problems; the few I have been privy to turn
out to be fairly ridiculous and without any basis in fact.
So do not fret about this. Other mail lists have beat this issue to death.
As far as asking others on the list for technical info and possible medical
issues...do you really want to make any rational decisions about your
health and safety concerns based upon what is said on the World Wide Web?
NO OFFENSE to others reading this, but the WWW is certainly not the source
I would generally turn to.
