I was using light first thing in AM while liste ning to podcast for 30 min. Made myself comfortable holding/ supporting light on pillow. Had an issue, called customer service, worked with wonderfully courteous professional (Cheŕry) walked me through resolution process via email: item#, proof of purchase, a picture front and back . I was sent a replacement and will continue to use. Admittedly the process involves a bit of technology aptitude, however easy enough.
Thankyou Virialux and Cherry. Much appreciated.

I like this tablet-shaped HappyLight, and I bought it even though I don’t think I suffer from seasonal affective disorder. I just wanted a nice full-spectrum light to help keep my circadian rhythm on schedule. I keep it in my bedroom, and I like to turn it on in the morning soon after I wake up. From other reviews, I guess maybe it’s not as bright as the recommended light dosage for people with SAD. I don’t hold it 6 inches from my face. But it’s still quite bright. It’s far brighter than any of my lamps or the overhead light in my room. And I can believe the light is “full-spectrum”. It’s actually a lot whiter than sunlight, and it seems somehow complete.
I wish it could be mounted on a wall. I’m surprised this did not come up during market research. I would have liked to mount this light on a wall, but the power cord plugs into a hole in the back that juts out from the back of the tablet like half an inch, so if the device is plugged in, then it needs several inches of clearance behind it for the cord. Like a tablet computer, the cord should go in the side of the machine, not the back. Bear this in mind if you are thinking of buying. You cannot lay the device flat against a surface.
I made peace with the weird position of the power input, and I don’t regret the purchase at all. I don’t travel with mine. I just have it mounted on a shelf in my TV stand in my bedroom.
Also, I like to check myself in a mirror using this light. It’s very bright, so it completely lights me up. And it’s neutral. It doesn’t make you look tan like a yellow light. And it doesn’t make you look washed out like fluorescent lights. Basically it just shows you the truth the same as sunlight. I don’t know if the company has ever marketed their lights for makeup/beauty like that, but it’s worth considering.
It’s a good product for the price I think. But if you do suffer from SAD, I recommend you read other reviews about the actual amount of light it emits. It sounds like it’s not bright enough. But it is SO bright already. I can’t even imagine how much light you are supposed to be getting if this isn’t enough.

The Verilux HappyLight Lucent, and I seriously could not be happier! It has totally transformed my workspace and has been the only thing to really brighten up my day and mood on those dreary days or in the winter. The 10,000 Lux brightness is just right — you can be in direct sunlight without the harmful UV rays. It emits gentle LED lighting and is convenient to adjust so that I easily get it aligned in the perfect position on my desk or nightstand.
So coumfortable the one touch operation. All you do is tap it for on and off (love it), and there is no fuss getting things set up. The first few days using it 20–30 mins first thing in the morning and I found a definite change in the daily energy and cognitive levels.
And hey, the compact design is a nice addition too; it never takes away space, whilst remaining solid and sexy. If you are looking for an effective, easy-to-use light therapy solution that actually works, I suggest the Verilux HappyLight Lucent.

MUST HAVE in winter (especially if you’re in a northern country like I am). I purchased this light to support healthy sleep hygiene and I noticed a difference in my quality of sleep by sitting with the light in the morning when I wake up. The difference was noticeable within the first days of use, and only progressed the more I used it. It’s become a sort of medical device that not only supports my mental health; this wonderful happy light has proven to also support my pain management, as the improved quality of rest results in stronger tolerance for pain.
That said, I would like to share my experience with the company when I had an issue with my light. I had hoped to find a way to get a new charger. The quality of the product itself is great! Just had a little bump and I reached out to the company to see what could be done to get my light therapy going again. Well, the response was expedient (excellent customer service). The company asked me to send them the details from my original purchase and they would get back to me.
Amazingly, as soon as I sent the information requested, customer service informed me that the company would be sending me a new light! I darn near cried because I wanted my light working again so badly. This is a great company that values quality of service as much as quality of product. The product is of high quality. Can’t believe the price I paid for it… almost felt like I robbed the place when it arrived after my original order.
Love this company and product so much I used my American account to send Verilux Happy Lights to loved one. It’s the kind of gift people don’t know they need until they have it and then wonder how they ever lived without it. My mom sits with her light every morning while she does her makeup (I was kind of wondering her secret to upping her makeup game).
Thank you so much, Verilux, for your outstanding customer service, and for providing a product that has improved my quality of life in the way that it has.
Kitty approved!

Significantly smaller and less bulky than the older versions. Takes up only a small amount of space. Easy to operate.

We recently moved back to the midwesr after living in a pretty sunny place and this has helped so much. Especially with the winter months approaching. We just turn it on behind is in the living room for a few hours while we work and it really does help a lot.

If you don’t have room for a bigger one it is great. Good for long dark winters.

I must admit that when my psychiatrist recommended light therapy a few years ago, I was a little skeptical. I didn’t know what to expect, as I had never heard of a Happy Light. When my insurance wouldn’t cover it, I decided to ask Amazon Claus. 🎅🏾 When I saw how inexpensive they were, I jumped right on it. Boy… I wish I had done so sooner.
SETUP: No assembly necessary; it’s easy to get started. First, take it out of the packaging. It’s a cute size, lightweight like a tablet. Next, plug it up. The upside to having the power adapter is that you don’t have to keep buying batteries. The sucky part is that it limits where you can put it; it has to stay plugged up or it won’t work. I may buy some Command Strips so that I can hang it on the wall, making it even more convenient & accessible. It has a hole or hook or something on the back that you can use to mount it, but I think the strips will be easier for me & won’t leave a hole in the wall. Finally, turn it on (there’s a button at the top to push). That’s it! CAUTION: IT IS VERY VERY BRIGHT so be ready to avert your eyes BEFORE you turn it on. 😵💫
USE: I typically prop it up on my desk or dresser slightly off-center so that I can still watch TV without inadvertently staring directly at it. I keep it on anywhere from 30 mins to 2 hours. It really is that simple. On a few occasions, i forgot that it was even there lol
RESULTS: I noticed a difference within the first few days of use, especially when I do a little 15 min afternoon “refresher”. 😌 It didn’t have me doing cartwheels or skipping through poppy fields (not that I expected it to), but I did feel more alert, more focused, not as tired & sluggish as usual. I always feel the best right after a session. Absolutely no unpleasant side effects. Had no problem sleeping that night or any other night.
I like this thing so much that I gifted one to 2 of my closest friends. 🙂

I purchased the Happy Light for my teen daughter who has been suffering off and on with depression for the past few years. It always seems to get worst during the winter months so her doctor suggested light therapy. I researched a bit and looked at the reviews for different lights on Amazon. My biggest concern was I did not want to pay a lot of money for something that I didn’t know if it would work.
First let me say I am very impressed with how sturdy this product is. It is built well and built to last. The light bulb does not need to be changed. It was well packaged inside two boxes to prevent any damage during shipping. I love that it had the Albus quote from Harry Potter on the box and my daughter who is a huge Harry Potter fan loved it. (shown in pictures)
My daughter began light therapy during the mornings and we have noticed that there is an improvement in her mood, she is having a much better year this year then previous years. We have had this product for quite some time now and we were able to start using the light once the days got shorter and prevent her reoccurring depression from getting as bad this year as in previous years.
Great product, great price and definitely worth a try if you have seasonal or other depression.
