I used the Relaxmate I for a number of years, and found it a nice aid to meditation. But this version is worthless. The controls for color adjustment never worked, and the light pulse frequency button didn't do a thing. Soon the light pulsing stopped altogether. After a few months, I'm left with some very expensive eyeshades that shine purply light in my eyes. I feel seriously ripped off.

I'm really happy with this product. I love the adjustments that let me customize each session. I've found myself using slower, dimmer sessions before bed and brighter, faster sessions in the afternoon or morning to augment my meditation practice.

I would highly recommend this product to anyone interested in enhancing there ability to relax and unwind, its great to use with relaxing music. I found this product to be reliable and durable (owned for 9 months) and the battery life is excellent.

I purchased this product and set the timer the 20 minutes. There was a blinking white light which I adjusted to a more purplish red and used the slowest tempo. Even though I am an experienced meditator, I found I was unable to get into a meditative state using this. I even tried to align my breath with the tempo of the lights, still no good. It seemed that it was taking longer than 20 minutes and I took it off and looked at my watch. It was close to 30 minutes and the 20 minute timer function never turned off. I emailed the seller and told me that she "had noticed that often herself in these units(!)" Returned it but she doesn't want to refund me the complete amount. Beware. P.S. Dr. Shealy's health & book info are great.
