HappyLight Touch Plus - Light Therapy Lamp with 10,000 Lux, UV-Free, LED Bright White Light with Adjustable Brightness, Color, Countdown Timer, & Detachable Stand - Boost Mood, Sleep, & Focus

I bought this product a couple of months ago, and I must say, it’s incredibly bright. If you’re looking for a bright light source, this is the one for you. I believe the quality is good, but the biggest issue I’ve encountered is my inconsistency in using it. However, I firmly believe that if I were to use it daily, it would be beneficial. I used it for a few weeks every morning, but I’m not very good at being committed to waking up early every day and using it . That’s on me, but I did enjoy using it. I would wake up and turn it on immediately. When set to the highest brightness level, it’s extremely bright, which is exactly what I was looking for. I highly recommend this product. It’s a well-made quality product. The only thing I didn’t like was the stand, which keeps falling off. It doesn’t stay securely attached to the product. Also, it has a proprietary charging cord, so be careful with that. I recently discovered that you can hang it on a wall using a hook. I hung it up next to my computer for work, but sometimes it’s just too bright. Overall, I highly recommend this product if you have a place to put it, such as your office or your bedroom. If you’re working or need to wake up in the morning, I believe it’s a great product that will work well if you’re consistent with it. It has a timer and different brightness levels, including yellow and cool tones. It’s a push-button turn-on, not a timer, so you can’t set it to wake you up.

I’ve only had this light for nine days, so nothing here can address its longevity. I will try to post a later review when I’ve had it for at least six months. But up to this point it exceeds my expectations. I have not had this one for long, but I have been using a light for SAD and for depression in general for over thirty years now. The science has come a long way and there are methodologies in place at this point in history that can help someone find what will work best for them. There are some general requirements for a SAD light that most notable sources all recommend. It should generate up to 10,000 Lux (a measurement of light intensity), the light given off should be UV-free (UV light can harm the eye) and the light should typically be white to be most effective. This light, like many, offers three brightness settings and two colors. It also has a timer to make keeping track of your session easy. It is a convenient size. My desk is a small one and the mug is a large one. The box is about 10 inches by 6 inches with the actual light being a bit smaller. I find it to be a very useful size. It doesn’t get in the way of whatever is typically on my desk but is certainly large enough to give off a very nice, wide light. I find the light to be simple and very user friendly. There isn’t much to figure out and there are instructions for what controls there are. This is a corded light, NOT one with a battery or battery pack. Has to be plugged in to work. This may not be the one if you are looking for a light you can take anywhere and use. It is portable (easy to pick up and move) but not cordless. The light seems to be well made and solid, doesn’t have a “cheap feel” to it. The removable cord is about six feet long, long enough to find a plug in most places but short enough to be readily wound up and tucked into a bag or folder. The stand pops off the back when needed so is also quickly ready to move or pack. I like this light and already have some sense of its effectiveness. The cost is reasonable for what you get. I have paid hundreds of dollars for a SAD light that I do not believe is as good as this one. We’ll see how it stands up over time. As I began, It’s Great So Far! One final note: consult a professional as to the use of this or any other SAD light. The time and technique recommended may vary. Be good to yourself and let your own light shine!

I've been using the Verilux HappyLight Touch Plus for a few days now, and it has truly been a game-changer for my mood and energy levels. The 10,000 Lux of bright white light is incredibly effective, and I love that it's UV-free, making it safe for daily use. The sleek, modern design fits perfectly on my desk, and the touch controls are intuitive and easy to use. The different brightness levels allow me to customize the light intensity based on the time of day and my needs. Plus, the LED lights ensure a long-lasting and eco-friendly solution. I noticed a significant improvement in my overall well-being, especially during those gloomy, winter days. If you're looking for a reliable and effective light therapy lamp, the Verilux HappyLight Touch Plus is definitely worth the investment. Highly recommend!

As other customers have stated, the stand fails spectacularly as it does not click into the body of the device. Also, upon looking at many clinical trials and metadata studies to better understand the benefits of BLT (Bright Light Technology) the light should be facing down slightly at eye level, not up from desk level (which is not eye level). From below it seems to make viewing a monitor for work, TV or hand held device a little challenging to see. More time will be required to determine if this actually has a positive benefit on SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), but I honestly hope it does. Three stars for “construction”

We use this in a bedroom that normally receives poor daytime light and is especially so in the winter months, in order to provide a sunnier atmosphere during the wintertime. We have used it other seasons as well, by shining it onto a wall to illuminate the room better as the evening wears on. We find this effective in feeling a prolonged exposure to light and that it is effective in feeling more awake and alert as compared to when we did not have the light. The fact that the light can be adjusted to a warmer tone or cooler tone, and to varying intensities is most helpful as different users in the home prefer different settings. Definitely recommend. Also the customer service at Verilux is excellent!

I use this at the office, and though I find it falls down a fair bit due to the little stand coming out, I've been enjoying having it as I lack a window near my desk. I can't speak to how it's affected my mood, but I will say I feel more energized in the afternoon when I've used it in the morning! I tend to use it for long periods of time since it sits a little further away from me. Definitely not a task light, the angle it sits at doesn't allow for it

Although we bought from Amazon Australia it arrived with a US power plug. Now have to buy an adapter 🙁

This thing is compact enough you can put it anywhere, carry it anywhere. The light is bright but it doesn't really hurt your eyes, its pleasant. I do 20 mins every morning and I do feel my mood overall in the day improved.
