🌅 Why Dawn and Dusk Transitions Matter
Gradual changes in morning and evening light mimic natural dawn and dusk conditions. These slow transitions are important because horses are very sensitive to sudden changes in lighting.

Abrupt light changes can cause stress, but gentle shifts in light levels help horses relax as they wind down at night and gradually become more alert in the morning.

Equilume Stable Lights are designed to replicate these natural light transitions. By gradually adjusting light intensity, they support your horse’s wellbeing by reducing stress and promoting healthy rest and alertness cycles.

Lighting the way for mares ✨
Equilume is not just about getting your mares cycling earlier—it's a game-changer for pregnant mares and their foals too! 🌟
By regulating light exposure, Equilume helps tighten gestation lengths, ensuring foals arrive at the optimal time. It also boosts milk and colostrum quality, supporting healthier, more developed foals. 🍼🐴
Plus, mares benefit from cycling back faster, so they're ready for the next breeding season in no time.
Whether you're breeding, pregnant, or preparing for the next season, Equilume is the light your mares need! 💡

🌙 What is a Short Day Photoperiod?
Short day photoperiods occur during the winter months and typically consist of around 8 hours of daylight followed by 16 hours of darkness.

These shorter days signal important seasonal changes in horses, such as shifts in hormone levels, reduced reproductive activity, changes in coat growth and a natural slowdown in metabolism and behaviour.

While these changes are natural, they can sometimes work against performance, conditioning or breeding goals. That is where Equilume makes a difference.

Equilume lighting is designed to overcome the challenges of short day photoperiods. By extending daylight using targeted blue light, our systems help maintain healthy circadian rhythms, support year-round reproductive activity and optimise performance even in the darkest months.

✨ Support your horse through every season with the power of light. Visit Equilume.com to learn how.

🌞 What is a Long Day Photoperiod?
A photoperiod refers to the duration of daylight hours in a 24-hour day. Long day photoperiods are typical of summer and consist of around 16 hours of light followed by 8 hours of darkness.

These extended daylight periods play a vital role in regulating biological processes in horses. They influence reproductive activity, hormone levels, coat condition, energy levels and behaviour.

Equilume products are designed to replicate long-day photoperiods when nature cannot. By providing consistent, biologically effective blue light at the right times, Equilume helps stimulate the natural responses horses would experience in summer. This is especially useful for breeding, performance and maintaining healthy circadian rhythms throughout the year.

✨ Light your horse's day the way nature intended. Explore more at Equilume.com.

🔴 Why Red Light Matters
At night, dim red light or darkness is essential for rest and recovery. It supports the natural rise of melatonin, the hormone that regulates circadian rhythms and promotes sleep.

The Equilume Stable Light uses a specific red wavelength that has been tested in horses. It allows melatonin to rise while still providing enough light for safe and efficient management after dark.

Red light has a calming effect. It encourages horses to lie down more at night and helps reduce behavioural issues. It also eliminates white light pollution, which is one of the main causes of disrupted circadian rhythms and compromised health.

Equilume Stable Light’s red light technology is carefully designed to protect your horse’s internal clock while supporting a peaceful, restorative environment after sundown.

✨ Choose lighting that works in harmony with nature.
