The Solatube Brighten Up Series is a line of tubular daylighting devices that features Raybender Technology, a patented optical innovation built into our rooftop domes. With it, our systems effectively capture the sun's rays at the roof level, then transfer them indoors through our highly reflective Spectralight Infinity Tubing. They can be used individually to illuminate small areas or in multiple configurations to attain predictable lighting results for larger spaces. It has a great potential for commercial applications like corridors, storage rooms and small offices. It can also be used to create specific architectural effects like wall washes and soffit lighting.The Brighten Up Series is a brilliant solution for medium spaces with ceiling heights up to 10 ft.
