User questions & answers

Question:	Is it worth the extra money to buy this over the HF
Answer:	Hey BenjaminThere is a side-by-side comparison of the various lamps Philips makes at the end of the listing for the HF3470. It looks like it boils down to this: The HF3470 has a replaceable bulb (what that entails, I couldn't tell you. It looks like the HF3520 must be a "forever" bulb). The HF 3470 has a "sunrise simulation" which I dig, and helps me wake up more naturally, which is what I bought the product for in the first place, so that was important to me, but is it for you? Lastly, the HF3470 has 2 sound simulations whereas the HF3520 has 5. I wouldn't call that particular facet a deal breaker. It looks to boil down to the idea of the sunrise simulation and is that worth roughly $60 for you? Happy shopping.
Question:	Is the light very blue from the LED? I'm thinking of the blue-ish tinted "white" LED christmas lights... I prefer the warmer colors
Answer:	The LED light is not blue or white... It's a sort of orange color. Very warm and pleasant. You can also adjust the intensity of the LED light to make it very soft so you won't notice it in the dark. Perfect for people that prefer to sleep in a completely dark room, like me. But you can still see the time, even with the soft LED settings.
Question:	what are the 5 choices of sounds
Answer:	Loud bird chirping, (rainforest maybe?) birds screeching and calls, music with birds, piano music, and the distant sound of waves under seagulls
Question:	I need an alarm that makes no sound at all . Is there an option to turn off all sound
Answer:	The Sonic Bomb has a pad that vibrates under your pillow. Since my wake-light only lasted 2 years, I got the Bomb, because I didn’t hear the alarm clock. I prefer the Wake-up light, but you can’t replace the bulb. I am not paying $100 every time the bulb dies in 2 to 3 years.

User questions & answers

Question:	Do each of the audio options (birds, chimes, radio) gradually fade in at alarm time, and if so, can the amount of fade in time be adjusted
Answer:	This model does not support radio or bird sounds. It only has a beep that gradually gets louder. The beeps progress to full loudness in about a minute.
Question:	Can the alarm noise be disabled? If I just want to wake up via the light, can I do that
Answer:	Yes, you can. My husband opened it up for me and snipped the speaker wire. I now use the light (across the room) and an alarm near my bed. It’s quite pleasant.
Question:	I have to sleep in a completely dark room. Can you disable the clock display while you sleep
Answer:	The dimmest display setting is more dim that my previous clock, but still too bright for me to be happy with. Since I also sleep poorly unless the room is VERY dark, I wear my eye mask and can usually fall asleep this way. My mask falls off while I sleep almost every night, so the brightening light still wakes me in the morning! (For me, this is true about 13/14 nights.) With my old clock, I would layer Kleenex tissues over the display until it was just BARELY visible in the dark. This clock face is too tall for the tissue trick to work, but the orange glow is lighter than my old red display. Good luck!
Question:	So if the lamp burns out or is damaged the item is rendered useless
Answer:	Also, the LED life rating is when the light output is 70-80% of the original output (depending on the specification it is rated to). So it won't stop working in 16,000 hours, it will just be noticeably dimmer. Of course this ignores failures in the driving electronics that you risk with any electronic device.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does this have a battery backup
Answer:	Somneo does not contain a battery, but it does have PowerBackUp+, which emits an alarm during a power outage at the set wake-up alarm time. PowerBackUp+ is active for 8hr, which should be sufficient for most power outages, except natural disasters.
Question:	It says it can play music from my phone, but I want to be clear- Can I set it up to play a song from my phone as an alarm
Answer:	Hello! You can use the Sleep & Wake-Up Light as a speaker for music by connecting a music playing device (for instance your mobile phone) to the AUX socket. but you cannot wake up to music from an AUX connected device.
Question:	Can you connect this to the hue app? Thanks
Answer:	No, it does not have Bluetooth capability.
Question:	Can I fully dim the alarm clock display so that there will be no light at night
Answer:	While the time on the light does adjust to the brightness of the room, the time display does not allow for brightness to completely go away. I have a blackout room and the time display, even on its lowest setting, is still too bright sometimes.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the max LUX
Answer:	200 Lux according to Philips website
Question:	Can you adjust the volume of the wake-up noises? Apparently on the HF3500, you cannot adjust the volume of the wake-up beeper. What about this model
Answer:	There are FM radio and 2 wake up sounds. According to the Philips site: "The selected sound gradually increases in volume to your selected level." This would imply that the wake up sound is indeed selectable.
Question:	Can it play plain white noise
Answer:	It plays bird and owl noises
Question:	Can I use only the light and turn off the sounds
Answer:	Yes, there are two separate buttons, either for alarm (which triggeres both sound and light) and light. If you set the alarm, it will activate light and sound at the time set, but you can shut off the sound by pressing the alarm button once, the light will stay on. You can't set the light to lit up at a time by itself.

User questions & answers

Question:	Could anyone point me towards any peer reviewed publications that discuss the effectiveness of this type of light therapy
Answer:	I found one such article here from Biological Psychiatry - http://www.biologicalpsychiatryjournal.com/article/S0006-3223(01)01200-8/abstract
Question:	I share a bed with my husband, but I wake up approximately 1 hour before him. Will the light wake him up from the other side of the bed
Answer:	It depends on what brightness setting you use, there are 20 different settings. It also depends on how dark you keep your bedroom. In my experience, settings anywhere from 15 to 20 will light up the room pretty well. Depending on how light a sleeper he is, or how affected he is by light you can adjust it to only light up to a very dim level...whether that will wake you up or not is a different question. Mine doesn't usually wake up my wife. Also, once the light goes on, you can turn it off and the alarm sound will continue, you can still snooze the sound (the light is not affected by snooze). The alarm sound doesn't go off until you hit the alarm button again (which resets it for the next morning)
Question:	Can you turn off the sounds so that you only have the light as the wake up feature
Answer:	Yes, you can set the sound level to OFF when you create your wake-up profile
Question:	Aside from the number of sounds and the adjustable sunrise, is there any difference between the 3520 and the
Answer:	The HF3520 has a 2nd alarm setup which, in theory, could be used to wake up your mate, or as an alternate setting (weekends, school days, etc). The HF3520 also has a sunrise simulation which changes the color of the wake-up light from a dim reddish glow to the same slightly yellow white glow as the HF3510. That's why I opted for the HF3510 since the extra features weren't useful to me. Over the last month, the pricing has fluctuated a lot for the HF3520 but not for the HF3510. The pricing seems to have dropped for the HF3520 to the point where it could be cheaper to get that model over the HF3510 had I not gotten a good deal. Do your homework before buying.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will this work with a 110V outlet
Answer:	This will not work on 110v outlet. You may burn a fuse so please be careful. Stick with the 208-240volt standard.
Question:	The description says electronic ballast but mine has that buzz/hum like a magnetic ballast. did i get a magnetic ballast by mistake
Answer:	The 120V version of the Diamond LEC uses a step down transformer in conjunction with the digital ballast. This 'step down transformer' is more than likely the humming sound you are hearing and it is normal.
Question:	Does this come with a ballast
Answer:	Yes.
Question:	can this be used in a tent that is 5'8 in height
Answer:	Yes, but it will limit your plant height. 18 inches is generally recommended between the light and the top of the canopy - symptoms of bleaching or light burn start becoming more common if the light is any closer. So this leaves 4'2 for your combined plant + pot + light fixture + hangers. The fixture is 10 inches tall, and the provided hangers add another 4 inches. So you are left with 3' to 3'4 for your plant + pot, which means, what, 2' to 2'6 for the plant itself? Or thereabouts? That's pretty short.

Bedside lamp In addition to being a dawn simulator alarm clock, the Philips Wake-up Light can also be used as a bedside lamp, with a choice of 10 different light intensities. Sunrise Simulation Inspired by nature's sunrise, light gradually increases within 30 minutes from dim yellow until your room is filled with bright yellow light. This process of increasing light intensity stimulates your body to wake up naturally. By the time light has filled the room your chosen natural sound completes the wake up experience, leaving you ready for the day ahead. Inspired by the naturally brightening light of the sunrise, the Philips HF3500 Wake-up Light gradually increases in brightness over a 30-minute period before your wakeup time, growing more intense until your room is filled with bright yellow light. This process of changing and increasing light stimulates your body to wake up naturally and comfortably. Wake up with light, feeling more refreshed Imagine waking up easily and naturally, without having to be jolted awake with the noise of an alarm clock. Philips Wake-up Lights are designed to do just that. Philips Wake-up Light is ideal for anyone who finds it difficult to get up in the morning, especially in the dark winter months. Its gradual sunrise eases you awake, gently and naturally, just like a summer's dawn, and just in case,

User questions & answers

Question:	Hello. In numerous photos, I have see the Sky used off to the side, pointing at the face at an angle (like the photos above). Is this OK
Answer:	According to the book "Winter Blues" by Norman Rosenthal, one of the docs involved in the original discovery of seasonal affective disorder; the light can enter the eyes at an angle or from the sides. As long as the light waves are reaching the retina that's all that's necessary for it to work, and is even preferred in someone wearing glasses as light can enter the eye from the side without having to pass thru the glass lens which will filter a small part of it out. Also, wearing sunglasses filters even more light out and lessens effectiveness.
Question:	Can you adjust the height, independent of the angle? I mean, not the angle but just the height by itself
Answer:	You CAN adjust the height and keep the angle the same. The light swivels forward and back which changes the angle. However, the arm that attaches the light to the base also swivels forward and back to some extent. You can lower the height about 8 inches and still keep the light at the angle shown in the picture.
Question:	How long do light bulbs last when you use it 30 minutes a day? How quickly can you get the new light bulbs from the company? Available elsewhere
Answer:	The bulbs are rated for 8,000 hours, but the intensity does degrade over the bulb life. Therefore, you should replace the bulbs every two years, based on your usage, to maintain the same lux rating. However, even though the lux level drops over time, you may also simply increase the treatment time to derive the same therapeutic benefit (e.g. 10,000 lux for 30 minutes, 9,000 lux for 35 minutes). The bulbs retail for arounf $10 each and the Sky uses 2, which may be ordered from Carex directly or from other dealers.
Question:	Is the technology flicker free
Answer:	Yes. I don't know about the whole therapy aspect, but this is the single best task light I've ever found. The light is both glare and flicker free, and easy on the eyes. One thing they don't make very clear is that it has a brighter therapy setting and a lower task light setting. It will only stay on the therapy setting for so long, then one of the two bulbs clicks off. There is still an amazing amount of light left as a task light, but it can be worrisome when your brand new light does something odd. :)

LED Bright Light Therapy Lamps

Lamp can help relieve circadian sleep disorders, shift work adjustment, jet lag and low energy. It is safe, natural and effective.

Our BrightZone Technology delivers the maximum dose of 10,000 LUX in a broad field of illumination, featuring UV-filtered white light for your safety & comfort.

How bright light therapy works

Scientists believe that bright light therapy works on different levels, producing a combined beneficial effect. When used at an appropriate morning hour (or in rare cases, evening hour), it corrects the misalignment of the internal body clock, known as the circadian rhythm, with external night and day.

Who Can Benefit From Bright Light Therapy?

For those with mild to moderate Winter Blues, sleep issues, regular use of a bright light therapy device can provide relief. For most conditions, use shortly after waking or in the morning. Place your device above your line of sight, where possible, to maximize the light reaching your eyes. You should be facing the lamp with eyes open during sessions, but you do not need to look directly at the light.

User questions & answers

Question:	How far should my eyes be from the lamp to receive 10,000 lux
Answer:	There’s a very detailed insert that comes with the lamp that includes tips and tricks. It can vary how far you’ll need to keep the light from you but this is mainly for nausea purposes. The light emits 10,000 lux. Mines usually 8-10” from my face but the insert says anywhere from 6-24” away dronface, depending on how you react to the light, you’ll have to adjust accordingly.
Question:	Does it have a mechanical switch (that is, one that can be left in the “on” position), or is it a digital switch that needs to be turned on each time
Answer:	It is a digital touch switch that starts “off” when first plugged in it when you try to control it from a smart outlet. Successive presses cycles “bright”, “med”, “dim”, “off”. Because of this behavior, there is no way to fully automate this light. It can be switched “off” via smart home controls, but attempts to turn it on still require you to manually go over and touch the lamp.
Question:	Does the light peek out of holes instead of the entire circle as one complaint stated
Answer:	The light mimics the sun with full light shining through the front of the the disk. Light also comes through the little holes around the side of the circle. It has 3 settings: high, medium & low. Never look directly at the light on high when you are turning it on. Also, the plug gets hot so I always unplug the lamp when not in use.
Question:	Why do you have to face it? i'd assume its for the eyes to absorb then? or is it dermal? face, but don't look? uv screen in product
Answer:	Bright light therapy works when the light contacts the cones in your eyes. That said, you should not stare at it. It is best actually slightly above your eye level (like the sun) and 45-90 degrees to the side. Don't wear sunglasses, just don't stare at it. And it will not be effective if you keep your eyes shut per current studies.

The Lumine Lamp

Symmetrical and minimalist, this versatile design fits as well in a home as it does in an office. It’s perfectly square top-to-bottom light panel and integrated stand create a bold, modern aesthetic. Right angles and straight lines give it a clean, sharp look.

Its matte textured dark grey color stands out in a crowd of white. The subtle use of light grey and orange beveling around the frame and switch adds to the sophistication of the lamp.

The Lumos Lamp

This is our slimmest lamp, measuring just 2 1/4" wide. It also has the smallest footprint, allowing it to be placed in tight spaces, demanding less desk space. In order to keep the stand compact, we designed the lamp to be tall, thin, and narrow.

Eminently adjustable, 3 hinges and a rotating light panel give this lamp excellent flexibility, allowing you to angle the light panel in a multitude of ways. This makes it easy to place, position and configure the lamp in a way that works best for the given space.

The Lampu Lamp

Inspired by the sun, this lamp was designed with a focus on flowing curves and clean lines. The omission of square angles gives it an organic, gentle form. From the front, it projects a simple minimalist aesthetic. From the back, the detailed venting and subtle use of color adds to the sophistication of this lamp.

The thin bevel and hidden stand make it look like the light panel is floating over the table. The power cord and switch located on the rear adds to the unembellished look of the lamp.

The Luxy Lamp

Using the latest in lensing and LED technology, this is the first light therapy lamp to be capable of running off a USB port.

The folding base allows for multiple use angles while also functioning as a cover. We started with a blank canvas, and created what we believe to be the world's smallest light therapy lamp, without sacrificing functionality. This minimizes the space needed on your desk, and makes it perfect for travel.
