Lumie Vitamin L Slim SAD Light Therapy Box, White

Brilliant SAD lamp. Holy moly this thing is bright. It massively helped me during the winter and is super easy to use. It’s too bright to have facing you head on, but off to the side works really well. Keep mine on my filing cabinet, next to my desk, so I’ve got some light whilst working. Doesn’t take up a lot of room, very easy to assemble and operate. Looks very sleek.

I don't know about you, but I've always been a bit skeptical of products that claim to cure the winter blues. So when I heard about the Lumie Vitamin L Slim Light Box, I was more than a little dubious. I mean, how could a little box of light make me feel happier and more energized during the darkest months of the year? But let me tell you, this thing works! I started using the Lumie Vitamin L a few weeks ago, and I've already noticed a difference in my mood. I used to feel like a grumpy bear in hibernation during the winter months, but now I actually feel like a somewhat functioning member of society. It's like someone turned on a switch in my brain and suddenly I'm not as gloomy and lethargic as I used to be. The slim design of the Lumie Vitamin L is perfect for those of us with limited space. It fits easily on my desk or bedside table, and I can even take it with me when I travel. So now I can get my daily dose of light therapy no matter where I am. I even tried using it while watching TV, and let me tell you, it's a real game changer. Who knew that a little box of light could make Netflix and chilling even better? But my favorite thing about the Lumie Vitamin L is that it's so easy to use. There are no complicated settings or buttons to figure out. You just plug it in, press the power button, and bask in the glow of its warm light. It's like having a little slice of sunshine right in your own home. Of course, I do have a few minor complaints about the Lumie Vitamin L. For one, the light can be a bit intense if you're not used to it. I made the mistake of staring directly at it for too long and ended up with spots in front of my eyes. Lesson learned: don't stare into the light like you're auditioning for a role in a horror film. Overall, I would highly recommend the Lumie Vitamin L Slim Light Box to anyone suffering from the winter doldrums. It's a simple, effective, and oh-so-bright way to chase away the blues. Just don't forget to wear sunglasses if you decide to get up close and personal with it. Trust me, you'll thank me later.

Really good product! I was skeptical at first but after using it everyday during autumn winter it has massively improved my mood, sleep pattern and energy levels. My previous Lumie vitamin L broke after 4 years of heavy use due to the button at the back no longer working properly. I've ordered another one as I believe they are that good and it's part of my morning routine now especially during the dark winter mornings. I really did notice a difference when I didn't use it in the mornings as I was feeling tired at 4pm when it started to get dark again. I'm so glad my replacement has arrived!

I’ve definitely seen improvement using the light, my ADHD symptoms of sleep wake cycles / lack of energy during the day have both tamed in a positive direction to some degree. It’s incredibly bright and the light quality seems very “pure”. I also find that it heavily improves my concentration/focus when working from home. The design is okay, but it doesn’t look luxury or worth keeping on display as I had hoped seeing the product photos. Based on the research I could find, 10,000 lux is the recommended value. But you need to be 20cm from the light to receive this lux value - this is very difficult a lot of the time. (Works well on my desk for this when placed up close, but in other environments, often end up having to hold the light handheld near your eyes for the long recommended periods as can be difficult to find other areas to place this close by ie when on the sofa, kitchen etc - would be good to have a way to put it on a tripod. Either it needed to be built to reach this lux at further distances or designed to be used this close (ie tripod as mentioned). Yes it seems to work - but I feel I’m missing out on the full capabilities of a SAD light given it can’t reach the recommendations with typical use in day to day life. I’ve also found mine has discoloured to a distasteful sepia colour on the back of the light and cable over time (5 years approx), with the front of the light showing a slight warmish tint developing.

I don't have to tell a detailed story to explain to anyone in the UK the struggles of winter weather. Cold, grey and miserable despite my best attitude possible. I actually thought the benefits of this would be a placebo. Anyone who's familiar with the Only fools and horses episode when Del is selling the infrared massage gun, I had the same expectations... Glad to say I was totally wrong and I've been blown away for a number of reasons. Firstly it's well packaged and very well made and turned off it even looks good, it's very smart looking. Secondly it's VERY bright. You know, you almost expect when you buy a bright white bulb off Amazon to find it to be bright yet I was still surprised. I'd much rather it be bright than not bright enough so if you're worried it won't be powerful enough don't, Stevie Wonder would know when I turn it on. I'd say within 45 seconds and I adjusted to the intensity I felt 50% more awake and I knew why this made sense as a purchase. In the summer I go outside first thing and the sun wakes me up and I'm ready for the day, my Lumie light is just a replacement during the winter months. I had a significant and noticeable difference in how I felt. I found it best for a few hours in the morning before the dark grey sky turns a slightly lighter grey, off during the day when I'm awake and I turn it back on from 4pm onwards until about 8PM when I'd like to be tired. Overall it's very pleasant, takes 5 minutes to adjust and you can carry on with whatever you're doing feeling significantly more awake, alert and honestly, happier. I've gone into length here with the aim of helping someone else solve their own winter blues, trust me give it a go for a day or so you can always return it.

Lumie Vitamin L: A Portable Solution for Seasonal Mood Boost, with Caveats The Lumie Vitamin L promises to be a convenient and effective light therapy solution for those battling seasonal affective disorder (SAD) or winter blues. Its slim and portable design allows users to incorporate light therapy into their daily routines, whether at home, work, or college. One of the standout features of the Lumie Vitamin L is its impressive 10,000 lux brightness at a distance of 20 cm, which is the recommended exposure time for addressing SAD symptoms. The cool white LED lights, combined with the rippled diffuser, provide a soft and comfortable lighting experience, making it easy to use for extended periods. As a certified medical device (class 2a), the Lumie Vitamin L offers peace of mind regarding its safety and efficacy. Additionally, its energy-efficient and UV-free design ensure a eco-friendly and healthy light therapy experience, backed by a 3-year warranty. However, it's important to note that the Lumie Vitamin L is not a one-size-fits-all solution. While the 20 x 28 cm surface area is generous, some users may find it too small or lacking in customization options to meet their specific needs. Furthermore, the effectiveness of light therapy can vary from person to person, and some individuals may require more intensive treatment or a combination of approaches to manage their seasonal affective disorder. Overall, the Lumie Vitamin L is a promising light therapy option for those seeking a portable and user-friendly device to combat the effects of winter blues and SAD. Its medical-grade certification, energy efficiency, and warranty provide added assurance, but users should manage their expectations and consider their individual requirements before making a purchase.

So my friends around me were talking about this SAD light therapy, which I was quite skeptical about and so was my partner. He's from Brazil and we used to live in Ireland and now in UK, every winter he'd become super depressed despite high dose of Vitamin D and all the multivitamins. So I was thinking maybe let's just give it a try since my friend around me was praising it, and to be honest, I was quite put off by its ....not so appealing design, pretty much like putting an iPad on the side. I bought him this as a new year present. He used it for a week, he kept it on all the time while he's working from home, and even just after one week, he slept better, his mood had just got better (bear in mind that the weather has been gloomy and rainy these days), and he felt he was a different person. =) Def worth a try for those that always become a sad depressed creature during winter time despite taking high dose of Vitamin D.

I spent hours researching specifications, published scientific research, and user reviews as I was not familiar with light therapy lamps before wanting to help a friend with depression. Although I have myself struggled for years with getting up in the morning, especially in December and January, it had never occurred to me that it could be helped. I was actually looking for a lamp to try to help my friend, but having decided on the Vitamin L, because of the company's reputation, the neat design of the lamp, and current deal price, I wanted to try it myself first. I can affirm that I felt more energised and much happier, even by day 3 of 30-45 mins a day in front of my new light. The light is a wonderful warm light which is not too bright and really does feel like you are bathed in sunshine and that alone is enough to lift one's spirits on gloomy mornings or evenings. After using it just once or twice, I literally felt like I wanted to be near my light to make me happier, and I am often a sceptic of such ideas. I also decided to order a medium round SAD light from another well known company, intending to give one of them to my friend and keep the other, as I would have liked a dimmer function. However, I found the other light was steady when on the higher settings, but had an intermittent flicker on the dimmer settings, and for me, although it seemed a little brighter than the Lumie, it was too cool white for me. That one might serve the same purpose, but the Lumie Vitamin L is a joy to use, looks very smart and really works. I would not hesitate to recommend it, and on the basis of my experience in the first week of using it, I am now looking to buy a wake-up lamp as well.

Sehr hell, dadurch gut wirksam für die Stimmung. So hell, dass das direkte Hineinsehen (was aber nicht notwendig ist) leicht unangenehm wird. Schön groß, reicht bei mir etwa bis Stirnhöhe, wenn ich mit dem Gerät am Tisch sitze. Schön breit, sodass ich während der Anwendung entspannt frühstücken kann. Bei der ersten Anwendung ist mir aufgefallen, dass das Gerät viel heller ist als mein Vorgängermodell von Lumie, das viele Jahre gehalten hatte. Vermutlich lassen die Leuchtmittel im Laufe der Jahre nach. Ich werde sie in Zukunft nach zwei/drei Jahren austauschen, man kann die beim Hersteller nach bestellen.

Per chi soffre di disturbo dell'umore la terapia della luce offerta da prodotto Lumie BRAZIL è perfetta. Inoltre per chi lavora in ufficio oppure chi studia e passa molto tempo in biblioteca , in manca del sole oppure durante la stagione invernale questo prodotto risulta un tocca sana. Lo consiglio vivamente anche chi come me ha carenza di vitamina D.

je suis tres satisfait de cette lampe, puissante et design. Delai de livraison respecté. Je la recommande à tous ceux qui s interessent a la luminotherapie.

Ich habe mir die Lampe schon vor einigen Monaten gekauft, weil ich im Winter ständig unter dem ‚Winterblues‘ leide. Und ich wollte für den nächsten Winter gewappnet sein. Heute, einige Monate sind vergangen, ist der kürzeste Tag im Jahr und noch dazu herrscht fast den ganzen Dezember hartnäckiger Nebel. Normalerweise habe ich um diese Jahreszeit schon eine ziemlich trübe Stimmung. Heuer ist es tatsächlich so, dass ich immer noch gute Laune habe – vermutlich, weil ich täglich beim Frühstück so um die 30 Minuten oder manchmal länger die Lampe neben mir stehen habe. Außer ich weiß, dass ich mal wirklich in die Sonne komme, dann eben nicht. Also: Wenn man jedes Jahr unter der ‚Winterdepression‘ leidet und früh genug im Herbst mit der Lampe beginnt, dann kann ich nur raten, das zu probieren. Und wenn möglich natürlich: ab in die Sonne! Aber die Möglichkeit hat man eben nicht immer.

Pour la luminothérapie. Tres silencieuse mais pas de minuterie.
