The OTT-LITE True Colour lighting system provides low-heat and high contrast illumination, using a long-life daylight simulation light source that reduces eye strain and enables modellers to practise their hobby with daytime lighting conditions, irrespective of the time of day.

OTT-LITE was pioneered by photo biologist Dr John Ott, who perfected time-lapse photography whilst working for Walt Disney. To do this, he required a constant source of natural light. Dr Ott spent 40 years researching and studying natural lighting and from it, he developed the OTT-LITE range.
