This Verilux Desktop Light Therapy Box sends 5000 lux of light in your direction from a 36 watt bulb to help you combat all those nasty jet lag blues or even the more debilitating Seasonal Affective Disorder. It’s small enough to sit next to your MacBook Pro, is guaranteed buzz and flicker free and should give you 10,000 hours of melatonin tweaking fun before you need to replace the light source. $89.95.
Just 30 minutes of exposure to the light from this slim box can block the release of melatonin, a sleep hormone. With less melatonin, people find they have increased energy levels and alertness. The light’s small 5 1/2″ x 3″ footprint allows it to fit easily on work surfaces, unlike previous generations that take up significant desktop space. The light uses a special 36-watt bulb rated for 10,000 hours, electronic ballast to ensure buzz-free operation, and flicker elimination technology that prevents electromagnetic fields.
Good product !
I have a HappyLite Mini that I use at work. I have no windows near my desk and I needed a little pick me up that wasn’t coffee or chocolate related. My desk is the brightest in my office and many of my coworkers want one because they see a difference in my attitude and I know it works. Give it a shot you’ll see. The company Verilux has a 30 trial time for the product so you can try the HappyLite and send it back with no risk. Thats what i did and they couldn’t buy the product back from me.
