These are the products designed for Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). 10,000 LUX of light delivered into the eyes for 30 minutes every morning has been proven to provide relief in 7 to 10 days.
Light Box FeaturesWhen you first awaken your eyes can be "startled" by turning on bedroom lights. The gradual "sunrise" from these units helps your eyes to be adapted when you awaken. The SunRizr and SunUp will help you wake up feeling fresh and ready for action even during the darkest of winter mornings. They can even prevent you from sleeping in later and later as the days get shorter. The SunRizr and SunUp work with incandescent lamps (or a combination of lamps) up to 400 watts and accept one two-pronged plug.
Researchers recommend replacing all the bulbs in your light box every 2 years to maintain the correct light output. Most of our customers, in practice, replace them every 3-4 years, with regular use.
* 110 volt light boxes only. 220 volt and World Voltage models are covered by a One Year Warranty with a Two Year Bulb Warranty.
