Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The NatureBright PER3 Deluxe Light Therapy Lamp is multifunctional in design and ideally suited for your busy life. This lamp is more than a just a light; it works as an attractive light therapy lamp and a daily alarm clock.



The PER3 is designed to be a vital partner in your daily life. View larger.


Use this attractive light therapy lamp wherever you please. View larger.


You can also use it as an alarm clock. View larger.
Its super-bright LED light has been proven to relieve symptoms of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), depression, sleep disorders, jet lag, and other conditions. With regular use of PER3, you can enjoy more healthy sleeping patterns, banish "winter blues," and even indulge in a bit of bedtime reading with glare-free, bright and clear LED illumination.

Are you, or is someone you know, suffering from symptoms of SAD? Take this handy self test to find out.

How the Deluxe Light Therapy Lamp Works
PER3 emits the wavelength and intensity of light that has been proven to improve health and general well-being. The PER3 works to subtly reset your internal cycles, adjusting your body clock with its light therapy program.

The PER3's Natural Light Alarm Clock with a programmable dawn and dusk simulator uses proven technology to ease you into waking and sleep states. This subtle light therapy helps keep your spirits high and set you on a standard time zone or work schedule. The PER3 also serves as a glare-free bedside reading lamp; its clear bright light is highly beneficial for reading.



The PER3 boosts your exposure to light in the early morning hours, simulating the exposure you'd receive on a sunny summer morning.
Dawn and Dusk Simulation Therapy
With its naturalistic dawn simulation and bright light therapy, the PER3 mimics both the gradually increasing light of sunrise as well as the progressively fading light of sunset. Your body reacts to these gentle changes by recalibrating its internal clock, or circadian rhythms. This results in more balanced and restful sleep cycles, even in instances of night shift work or long distance travel.

It has been clinically proven that exposure to light in the early morning hours is most effective for treating SAD. The PER3's naturalistic dawn stimulation therapy has antidepressant properties. When you awake with a gentle dawn-simulation alarm clock, you are able to treat symptoms of SAD easily and effectively, without needing supplemental short sessions of bright light therapy later in the day.

A Host of Benefits
Useful for insomnia, fitful sleep, and difficulties waking in the morning, the PER3's naturalistic dawn simulation therapy has no negative side effects. This attractive lamp enables you to support the body's natural processes and combat the stress associated with modern and hectic 24/7 schedules. PER3's swivel arm and pivot head features allow you to easily adjust the direction of the LED light so you can receive your light treatment as soon as you wake up, bathing the face evenly in therapeutic light.

Other great benefits:

  • Twice as effective at reversing SAD symptoms, thanks to naturalist dawn simulation therapy and bright light therapy
  • Eliminates the 30 minutes necessary for conventional morning light therapy
  • No UV rays; powered by solely non-invasive technology
  • Long lasting (up to 100,000 hours)
  • Energy efficient (consumes only 1/10 the power of incandescent lights)
  • As portable and versatile as an alarm clock or reading lamp
Clinical Study Conclusions
Case studies using a combination of dawn and dusk signals are very promising. These signals can help produce smoother sleep onset. Researchers at Columbia University Medical School conclude: "Twilight exposure appears able to promote circadian phase adjustments, morning melatonin suppression, regularized sleep patterns, and antidepressant responses."

Accolades for PER3's Delux Light Therapy Lamp
PER3 has been singled out by doctors at the Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston as being "best of breed" when recommending light therapy to their patients with SAD.

Beware! 15 Oct 2009
By Dawn
I purchased this lamp from the seller via their own website. Within two months a whole strip of the lights had gone. On contacting the seller, they actually said there was indeed a fault in the design of this lamp. They did replace, but, said if it happened again unfortunately they could not replace, EVEN though they knew of the problems related to this. They would not refund. Reluctantly I accepted another, to find 6 months down the line the same panel of lights blew, leaving the lamp half efficent. A friend who also bought this lamp not knowing of my purchase, sent me pics of her blown out panel via her mobile phone after hers lasted five months. The same side, same panel! She was told by the seller that the light strips could only be bought from the US and would cost a great deal. Thus in my opinion, this light should be withdrawn due to the faulty LED panel strips, which the seller acknowledges. In my own opinion DO NOT BUY THIS LAMP.

Excellent choice 10 Dec 2009
By Dr Bee
I realised this year that a pattern was developing and that I felt really low whenever it was dark and grey. My mood was noticeably improved from sitting in the morning sun - and I decided to look into SAD lamps.

I was faced with an overwhelming range of options, from the cheapest portable to some very expensive and larger products. Having reviewed the light output from all of these items - and considered the range of functions, I decided that the PER3 was probably the best value and most versatile product on the market for my needs. The choice is confused by manufacturers quoting lumen outputs for different distances from lamps - but standardising distances for comparison showed this lamp is amongst the most powerful in the price range. Other wake-up alarm-clock lamps seemed considerably less powerful and probably of less therapeutic use.

I wouldn't hesitate in recommending this item - my mood has been significantly and noticeably improved since I got it, and I use it regularly in all 3 modes. The sunrise wake up is wonderful, and I then lie comfortably in bed getting my therapeutic dose of light before the day ahead. At night I use the sunset function and I find that I drift off comfortably to the fading light. On really dark days I can easily use it as a desktop lamp and get a top up of light (it retains all of the settings when you unplug and move it - which is not mentioned in either the product description or the manual).

I am not exagerating when I say that I feel happy when I see that bright light! My friends have noticed that I am in a better space and as an added bonus the light is energy efficient.

Very effective device 29 Sep 2009
My wife purchased one of these devices and has said that it is very effective in countering SAD.

However I notice (though this is nothing to do with Amazon itself since it is sold in the UK by a third party) that this is yet another device where it is sold at x dollars in the USA and x pounds in the UK, making this already pricey device around twice as expensive in the UK as in the USA.
