Features
- ClearMirror's CLEARLITE™ is a backlit mirror with two frosted panels emitting high-output LED lighting with your choice of 3,000 degrees Kelvin or 5,300 degrees Kelvin. 3,000k is very, very close to normal indoor lighting. 5,300k is very close to "blue sky" daylight.
- The LEDs. have a CRI (Color Rendering Index) of 94+. You can't get much better. And they're rated for 70,000 hours 96 years - 2 hours a day. There are not hot spots and no dead spots. Using ClearMirror fog-free technology, the mirror remains fog-free.
- Installation is just like an ordinary wall-mounted light fixture. The mirror is hardwired and can be wired into the regular bathroom light switch or a separate switch.
- Overall, the mirror depth is under one inch and the overall size is 24" x 36". The mirror edges are flat polished. Mounting can be achieved via the mounting holes or the Z-bracket included.
- Made in the USA and extensively UL tested and approved for use over vanities, plus C-UL approved. Meets California Title 24 requirements. A 5-Year Manufacturer's REPLACEMENT warranty is included.
About CRI
Color Rendering Index (CRI)
The color rendering index (CRI) is a measure of the ability of a light source to display the colors of various objects faithfully when compared the a natural light source. Light sources with a high CRI value are desirable in color-critical applications such as neonatal care and art restoration. Generally the higher the CRI, the more pleasing to the eye.
The highest possible CRI value is 100 and is frequently achieved by incandescent or "regular" light bulbs. Fluorescent "cool white" bulbs have a CRI of around 50 to 60, but some high-end multi-phosphor fluorescents can go up to 98. LEDs typically have an a CRI around 80, and better, more expensive LEDs can have CRIs up to 97 or 98.

Color Temperature Comparison
Color Temperature is not Brightness Color temperature describes the color of the light.
The color temperature of any light bulb, including LEDs is measured in degrees Kelvin ("k"). The higher the color temperature, the closer the light is to pure white light at 10,000° K. A blue sky sunny day at noon has a color temperature of about 5,500° K. On a very bright cloud-covered day, the sky registers a color temperature of about 6,500° K., while a "regular" incandescent light bulb has a color temperature of about 2,700° K.
The color temperature of the lighting in your mirror may affect the way people see you in different situations. It's best, therefore, to choose a lighted makeup mirror with a color temperature to approximate your most frequent environment.
Many of our LED mirrors have their color temperature specified. And some makeup mirrors have adjustable or switchable color temperatures. For those where color temperature is not specified a reasonable guide is this: For incandescent bulbs, a color temperature of around 3,000° K. is normal. Fluorescents and LEDs with no color temperature specification have color temperatures around 4,600° K. The chart below can serve as a guide.

If you're planning for an outdoor day, the higher the color temperature the better. For evenings on the town, 2,700&deb; K. to 3,500° K. is best. For office environment lighting conditions, color temperatures around 4,500° K. provide the closest match.
