Product Description
Product Description
This simple to use portable light box has two brightness levels and uses blue spectrum light tubes to simulate natural daylight. Brings near daylight inside whilst you work or relax to help combat those winter blues.
Small and portable for use anywhere a mains plug is available. Much more convenient than large tube units and better than LED versions as it does not create "spotting" in the eyes.
Supplied with Digital Switching Power Supply for worldwide use.

Even if you're not struck down by some of the worst symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD), you're probably just like everyone else in getting a bit run down and depressed as the nights draw in and the hours of daylight seem to almost disappear.
There's little more depressing than getting up in the dark and coming home in the dark! SAD lights are nothing new, specially designed high-pressure lights which attempt to replicate the benefits of bright sunlight and hopefully spark up your dark day a little.
Generally however, SAD lights have been so expensive, the effect on your bank balance is likely to undo any good work the light does itself.
This product gets round that problem and offers an affordable and entry level option to try SAD lighting and see if it has a benefit for you - without breaking the bank.
The unit's low cost is evident in its design and construction - this is budget stuff. And it's size also reflects its cheapness. But this is designed really for a quick top up of light, perhaps in the morning before work, or while you work at your computer, rather than being professional light therapy. With little more to do than sit and shine however, it's cheaper design and lack of robustness is going to be of little concern.
It's designed so it can be stood on a desk or shelf, or hand held and comes with an adjustable mode to allow you to only use one side of the unit at a time, or with a different frequency.
Make sure you read the instructions, these lights are not intended for continuous use and users should only expose themselves to the light for controlled periods of time.

I was moved into an office with no natural light and began to feel really down. I ordered this out of desperation as I felt so bad. Within 2 days of having it on my desk I felt so much better, nearly 3 weeks on and I'm like a new person. Honestly, if you are feeling tired & depressed give this a try. I hate to think how I'd be now if I hadn't bought one. Worth every penny and small/compact enough to sit on my desk with no problem. Buy one!! :)

I was delighted (pardon the pun) What a super SAD LightBox ! I searched all over as I couldn't afford a lot of money. I suffer from Chronic Depression and SAD every year. This is a top product on some sites it was £80 !! Scandalous .... However worth every penny....(A mere £40 on Amazon) For six years now I have been getting steadily more ill. Not NOW !!! If you are tired all the time un cravin carbs, it's a must buy :) really impressed... Thanks Amazon. Feeling well after just three days use !!!!! buy one and prepare for the british winter. Highly recommended.

Not what was expected
The light on the Lifemax Light Pod doesn`t do anything nearly like the advertised `Daylight` in your room. Actually, looking at the size of it it was silly of me to think it would. Read more

Bought to reduce the effects of S A D
Unsure whether this is making a difference. Certainly very bright. Don't know how one would test the effectiveness of this light.
