p.1 #1 · Full Spectrum LEDs?

Simple question here. Are there any full spectrum LED lights on the market for color viewing? I'd like to replace my fluorescents if possible in order to save money on energy costs (and not to mention the literal daily headaches from being around them too long).

Monitors can never display the full spectrum of light. The new LED technology can display wider color gamut such as the Samsung XL24 and XL30. These monitors can display 100% AdobeRGB, sRGB, CMYK and 123% of NSTC color.

I'm sorry I didn't clarify. I'm not looking for a monitor. I'm looking for actual lights to view printed material. I apologize for the confusion.

Try these? They are fluorescents though.

Check out this source / comparison:

Curiously the lower 3300K-3400K lamps have higher CRIs and there is a gap between 5500K and 8500K

Edison base:

There is a 44 lumen, 6600K, 81 CRI lamp in this group.
