1) They help you absorb more nutrients from fruits and vegetables.

UV rays decrease nutrient levels in foods, and all other light sources, including natural and artificial, emit UV rays. In addition, LEDs do not give off heat, keeping food fresher for longer.

- Includes a bright white LED
- Mounts anywhere
- Lights up automatically when motion is detected
- Turns on only in darkness
- Automatically shuts off after 30 seconds
- Can be used indoors or outdoors
- Provides easy safety and security lighting
- And, may even be remote-controlled.
The Black Friday / Cyber Monday instant manufacturer rebate applies to the following products:
