Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
General
What makes your lights different from regular stable lights?
Our lights are specifically designed with a targeted blue light spectrum that mimics natural summer daylight. Unlike generic LEDs, this spectrum has been scientifically proven to regulate equine biological functions, including coat growth, reproductive cycles, and circadian rhythms.
How do these lights help with coat growth?
Blue light influences the horse’s pineal gland, which in turn regulates melatonin production. By simulating summer daylight, our lights help horses maintain a sleek summer coat year-round, reducing the need for clipping and making them show-ready in every season.
Are these lights safe for horses?
Yes. Our lights are developed with equine wellbeing as the top priority. They are low-heat, energy-efficient, and designed to deliver biologically effective light levels without causing stress or discomfort to the horse.
Installation & Usage
Do I need an electrician to install the lights?
No. Our system is designed to be simple and DIY-friendly, with easy mounting options for both permanent stables and portable setups. Many customers install them themselves within minutes.
How long should the lights be on each day?
We recommend following our pre-programmed light schedule, which delivers the ideal hours of daylight simulation for coat and biological regulation. Typically, 12–16 hours of consistent light exposure produces the best results.
Can the lights be used in open stables or outdoor shelters?
Yes. Our trials have shown excellent results even in open-fronted stables where horses are exposed to natural darkness at night. The targeted spectrum still stimulates the correct biological response.
Performance & Benefits
When will I see results?
Most horses begin showing coat changes within 4–6 weeks, with shedding of heavy winter coats followed by a sleeker summer coat. Results vary depending on the horse’s condition, breed, and existing coat growth.
Besides coat growth, what other benefits do the lights offer?
In addition to regulating coat growth, blue-spectrum lighting can:
Support healthier circadian rhythms (better rest & recovery)
Influence reproductive cycles, particularly in mares
Improve overall appearance, wellbeing, and readiness for competition
Do they work on all breeds and coat types?
Yes. From ponies with dense winter coats to sleek sport horses, the lights deliver consistent results across a wide range of breeds and coat types.
Costs & Practicality
How much does it cost to run the lights?
Each unit is highly energy-efficient. At approximately 100W per light, the cost to run is only a few dollars per month when used on our recommended schedule.
What’s the lifespan of the lights?
Our LEDs are designed to last for 50,000+ hours, meaning years of reliable use with minimal maintenance.
Do you offer bulk or commercial discounts?
Yes, we provide bulk purchase options for large stable operations, breeders, and trainers. Please contact us directly for tailored packages.
Ordering & Support
Can I take the lights with me when travelling to shows?
Absolutely. Our lights are portable and lightweight, designed to clip in and out for transport. Perfect for maintaining your horse’s coat and condition on the road.
What warranty do you offer?
All products come with a 2-year warranty covering manufacturing defects and performance reliability.
How can I get support if I have an issue?
