Verilux HappyLight Lucent - One-Touch Light Therapy Lamp with 10,000 Lux, UV-Free, LED Bright White Light & Detachable Stand for Boosting Mood & Improving Sleep

I originally bought this for my mother, but it was just too bright for her sensitive eyes (she has had cataracts and has the beginnings of macular degeneration). I will say, it is shockingly bright the first time you see it! My mom couldn't even tolerate it being just on her periphery. So, keep that in mind if you or whomever you are considering this for, has any eye issues. That being said, I still gave it 5 stars because I decided to try it out for myself, and I actually like it a lot! I use it almost every morning and I really do believe it helps me wake up, get energized and betters my mood. I have had low energy and depression issues quite often in my life (been on medication for years), and it does seem to get worse during the winter months. This lamp has really helped reduce the frequency and intensity of those issues. Even my cat likes to lay by it when I'm using it :) I am honestly grateful that my mom could not use this lamp! Side note: After hearing how it has helped me, she now wants to try one that has lower brightness settings. I will be purchasing one for her from this brand (Verilux) in the near future.

This therapy light is very bright and can get somewhat warm. Seems to be very reliable. It provides the "light" for boosting your mood, if you live in a darker climate. It is only the visible light, it doesn't provide UVB for Vitamin D production or Infared for the mitochondria.

I’m a mental health provider and have purchased several of these light boxes for clients struggling with depression, including bipolar depression and treatment resistant depression. Many of them have noticed real improvements in mood and energy when using it consistently in the morning. Over about 6 weeks, several people reported feeling more motivated and their depression screening scores improved as well. It has been a simple tool that can make a meaningful difference when used regularly. The light is bright but comfortable, easy to use, and simple to add into a morning routine. I’ve been happy with it and will continue recommending it to clients who may benefit from light therapy.

Too early for me to know if it’s effective or not, but it’s easy to use. Giving it 4 stars instead of 5 because I find the stand design could be improved - it’s very easy to knock over. I also wish the charging cord was a bit longer. But otherwise it seems to do its job and was a good price point compared to others on the market.

This light arrived on time and was exactly as expected. It should be noted that it is a very bright light and there are no variable settings. Bright is the only option. It is ok for me. I will only use it for short periods.

I was skeptical, but wanted to try this for light therapy, because Wisconsin is not the sunshine State lol After 3 days I noticed a very positive energy and mood shift. I'm really happy that I bought this, because it has helped me. I used it almost every day from 6am-7am for about 3 months, and now when November-April rolls around I'll be ready. I recommend this to others, especially those who live in 'darker' States.

This is my third Verilux Happy Light in 25 years, and I am so pleased with my newest one. I’ve been using Happy Lights now for several years, not only because I deal with Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) during the darker months of the year but also because I have extremely fair skin that burns both quickly and easily, even when wearing high SPF sunscreen. As skin cancer runs very highly in my family this lamp helps me to get the necessary “sunlight” without worrying about getting Squamous Cell Skin Cancer or Melanoma. The newest model is much slimmer than my last one and is so much easier to use anywhere in my home or anywhere else. The electrical chord is now separate from the body of the light and functions like a charging cord on an iPad or iPhone which makes the light much more portable. The light is roughly the size of an iPad. There is a detachable stand on the backside of the light which allows the light to stand stationary width ways or length ways on a table or a night stand or can be used without the stand. The portability and easy storage of this new design makes taking the light anywhere I travel so simple (which is a wonderful feature during the winter when my husband and I travel to get out of the cold and snow!) Verilux, which is Latin for “true light”, is the only brand of light therapy lamp that I will buy and use because their Happy Lights are designed and built to last so much longer than other brands. I’m very pleased with the new design and portability of the new One-Touch Light Therapy Lamp

I absolutely love this light. My doctor told me to get one because I just couldn’t sleep for years, I have been using it now for about a month and what a difference I can fall asleep and stay asleep. The size is perfect for a desk or a night stand rly anywhere. The stand adjustable and it works great have had no issues. There is not a timer just a power button to run off and on. The light is very bright you can’t adjust it but as long as you don’t look directly at it you’re fine. Definitely buy if you are having sleeping trouble I use it for 20 minutes every morning.

Not even kidding, thing thing has changed my life. I grew up in Southern California and moved to Eastern Canada 6 years ago. For the past couple of years I've been noticing low energy and just overall sadness that would come over me in the winters and I figured it was just the crappy Quebec weather. I then started hearing about Seasonal Affective Disorder a few years back, but didn't think that I had it. Low and behold, the sadness this year got really terrible (and I am a generally happy person), so I decided to get this light (I've heard about these types of lights before) just for the reason that I wanted to get better and wanted to try the light therapy method. I have a background in psychology and I am always extremely skeptical about products that are meant to help and whether the placebo effect goes into play. So I try my best to stay as objective as possible and kind of expect things to not work and then see what happens. Well, this light is incredible. The first morning that I had it, I put it on right after waking up and I gave it 20 min, but it actually annoyed me, so I figured it won't work, but I'll entertain the idea and give it a go at the office. Game changer. I put it on as directed at 10 or 2 at the proper distance from the face for 30 min and actually found it really, very pleasant (but fyi, it is very bright). I then turned it off, and a funny thing started to happen, I started to miss it being on!! I was very surprised. When I put it back on, it was overly stimulating at the 10 or 2 position, but I really wanted it on, so I put it behind me (a foot behind me at about an 8 or 4 position if looking at a clock and 12 being my computer screen). It was amazing. I left it on for 6-8 hours and I couldn't go without it for a week. Now I use it when I feel I need it, so maybe 2-3 hours some days, some more, some not at all. We have had very little sunshine this winter and I recommend to anyone that is even remotely entertaining the thought to try a lamp like this to not even hesitate. It's amazing!!! And this one is the size of a tablet, so it fits anywhere and very light to carry, not flimsy or fragile at all, well built.

This has made a huge difference in my daughter’s life! She is studying ballet/ dance full time in the UK…The dreary weather difference of England from where she is from in America( and the fact that she walked to the school before light, no windows in studios, and walked home after 5pm in the winter) was getting her down. As soon as I got this for her( she used it while she puts on her makeup and eats her breakfast) she felt SO much better- happier and energetic! 😎👍🏻☀️

El producto ha venido con el conector equivocado por lo que no se puede usar

So I'm from a place down south where the prospect of snow is a 50/50 chance of just not happening during the winter. And the winters were short. Then I moved to Quebec and WHAM, snow. For like 6 months. Getting dark before 5pm? I apparently can't handle it. It was recommended that I get one of these lights. I liked this particular light due to the price and the style. It looks like a tablet and it's simple. I couldn't wait to receive it. I haven't owned it more than a week or two, but I'm enjoying it so far. It's extremely bright, do not look at it head on or you WILL get a headache. But I use it in the mornings and in the late afternoon, to try and simulate the brighter light I would have if I didn't live in a snowy region. I do feel less anxious overall. I will come back and update this after using it for the bulk of the winter.
