Spektrum

SCORE4.6FAIR

Biohacking-focused brand with several distinct lens tiers

BEST FORA biohacker who wants the multi-tier lens-shopping experience of Ra Optics, BON CHARGE, or TrueDark, but at a meaningfully lower price. Spektrum's lenses run roughly $45–50 versus $119 and up for those three brands.

Verified light-blocking claims▼4/10

Spektrum publishes blocking-percentage claims per lens tier on its own site, but as with its direct competitors, these numbers aren't tied to a named independent lab test a shopper can verify separately.

Simple lens lineup vs. confusing tiers▼3/10

Spektrum, like BON CHARGE and TrueDark, sells multiple lens tiers at different price points rather than one purpose-built evening lens, so a shopper has to compare tier-specific pages before choosing.

Comfort for extended wear▼5/10

Frames follow standard eyewear shapes rather than industrial styles, but as with other premium brands in this category, the darkest tier's tint is intended for short pre-bed wear rather than extended all-day use.

Price and value▼7/10

Despite marketing itself alongside premium biohacker brands, Spektrum's lenses are actually priced around $45–50. Meaningfully cheaper than Ra Optics ($174+), BON CHARGE, or TrueDark ($119+), and below Swanwick and Gunnar's typical price points too.

Look and everyday usability▼4/10

As with other biohacker-tier brands, the darkest nighttime lens has a visible tint impractical for public wear, while lighter tiers look more normal but block less light.

PROS
✓Publishes tier-specific blocking claims rather than one vague brand-wide percentage.
✓Offers multiple frame styles so buyers aren't limited to one generic shape.
✓Sold direct at spektrumglasses.com with tier-specific product descriptions.
✓Markets itself alongside premium biohacker brands like Ra Optics, BON CHARGE, and TrueDark, but at roughly $45–50 per lens. The cheapest of the four biohacker-positioned brands in this comparison.
✓Markets distinct lens tiers by intended time of use rather than a single all-purpose tint.
✓Frame styles are described as everyday eyewear shapes rather than industrial safety-glasses builds.
CONS
✕Confusing multi-tier lineup similar to BON CHARGE and TrueDark means new buyers must research which specific lens matches their use case.
✕Blocking percentage claims are self-published rather than backed by a named independent lab test.
✕Smaller, less established brand than Ra Optics, BON CHARGE, or TrueDark, with less third-party community discussion to reference before buying.
✕Darkest nighttime tier has a visible tint impractical for wearing outside the home.
✕Sold only direct at spektrumglasses.com, without the mainstream retail availability (Best Buy, Amazon) that Gunnar Optiks offers.
✕Full coverage across day and night use typically requires buying more than one tier, raising total cost.
