5.0 out of 5 stars This lamp is what every person living in Seattle needs, March 28, 2007
By L. Pierce (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this lamp 2 weeks ago and I have been using it every day since. It is sturdy, super bright (think Mexico on a sunny day with no sunglasses), easy to use and does the trick of reducing the blahs from lack of sun here in Seattle. I bought the lamp mainly because I have a morning job and am not a morning person (aka cannot get out of bed in the morning)

It has a hole in the back so that it can be hung on the wall. I have the lamp hanging on the wall opposite of my bed so that when my alarm clock goes off at 6am (no light outside), I turn the lamp on and even if I try, there is no way I could fall back asleep-it's that bright. Getting up every morning at 6am is becoming easier and easier every day with the help of this lamp.

The directions state to use the lamp first thing in the morning with the lamp at eye level within 12inches for 20 minutes. The directions also state that you can use the lamp at a further distance but one would have to use it for a longer period of time-which I do and I get results.

The lamp is big but it still can fit on my desk (it has a pop out metal stand on the back of the lamp) next to my computer when I work, or on my bathroom counter (which is tiny-single sink with 3 inches of counter on each side) while I get ready for work. It's extremely light.

Improved mood-yes, decreased cravings for carbs.-yes, my body thinks it's sunny all the time in Seattle-yes. It was worth every penny.

5.0 out of 5 stars Light Up Your Life, October 13, 2009
Depression is a recurring, disabling disorder that affects many people. In fact, some have estimated that up to 48% of the population will be affected by a mood disorder at least once in a lifetime. Most know that medication has become a major form of treatment for this problem, but few know that the response rate has been considered to be only slightly better than that of a placebo treatment. Furthermore, according the studies, psychotherapy's effectiveness appears to be largely similar to that of antidepressant medications.

Then there's light therapy. Bright light for the treatment seasonal affective disorder, or SAD, has been shown to be effective. In fact, light therapy has become one of the treatments of choice for SAD. Although how it exactly works is not completely understood, light is known to be a potent phase-shifting agent of circadian rhythms and acts on melatonin metabolism and secretion.

How much is enough? Well, the minimal intensity of artificial light that appears necessary for an antidepressant effect in SAD is 2500 lux for two hours, or alternatively, a brighter light exposure of 10,000 lux for 30 minutes (Tam 1995). Is it safe? Yes, bright light does appears to be safe, and side effects are mild, if the light does not contain substantial energy in the ultraviolet spectrum. Also important to know is that in SAD patients, light has been shown to be most effective when given in the morning (Terman 2001).

As you can tell, there is a lot of research to back up the use of light therapy if you suffer from seasonal affective disorder. And even if you don't, emerging research is showing that the benefit of light treatment is modest for people with NON-SEASONAL depression too!

Having said all that, the Uplift Technologies DL930 Day-Light 10,000 Lux SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) Lamp is one of my top recommendations. It can certainly crank out the recommended 10,000 lux, or less, due to its two-way switch. Another good thing about this product is it's portability: you can easily take it with you on trips if need be.

So when all is said and done, being relatively inexpensive and shown to be effective, you really don't have much to lose when trying this product. And if its not your thing, consider other options such as exercise. At least one study (Pinchasov 2000) has compared light therapy to exercise and found both to be EQUALLY effective for SAD. Readers might want to check out books such as Exercise Beats Depression for more on that. Good luck!

5.0 out of 5 stars Not sad about this lamp purchase!, January 20, 2007
By E. Hart (Blaine, Minnesota) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I have been using my DL930 Day-light SAD lamp for about a month and I am extremely happy about how good I feel. I often awake before my alarm sounds, and feel ready to get up and start my day instead of repeatedly hitting the snooze button before finally forcing myself out of bed at the last possible minute. Co-workers have commented that I seem more cheerful. I feel I have more energy through-out the day and have been falling asleep more easily at night.
The lamp itself is of good quality construction for plastic, solid and stable. The stand was easy to assemble. The power cord is a good length. I like the compact, unobstrusive style (vs. some clunkers I have seen that look like they were built in someone's garage). My lamp was delivered pretty quickly even though I ordered it just before Christmas. I had been shopping around for a good price on this lamp and Amazon.com was cheapest by about forty dollars, plus there was no shipping charge. I have no regrets about purchasing this lamp.
