ChromaReal is an LED technology that BioLite uses for applications where complete and accurate lighting is important.

ChromaReal has a Color-Rendering Index (CRI) of 90 or higher. CRI is a measure of how full-spectrum the emitted light is and how true colors will appear.

When using at night, ChromaReal helps colors pop, textures stand out, and finishes have more depth and luster. This can really come in handy for things like nighttime cooking and photography.

Candle Flicker Included

Shake on warm white setting to unlock Candle Flicker mode
