This is great to hear! How do you like your red light panel? Do you use it for your skin? Also, what brand do you use for SAD? I was looking at buying both also? Ty for your reply…

@@theartgirl777Lumie is the brand he mentions in the video. He has the alarm clock but they also make SAD lamps! They all emit 10,000 lux.

Oh my days Just looking on Amazon now and thought do they actually work? Then stumbled on this! Thanks for all the advice, miss you, you legend!

Thank you for paying attention to the data. I have a portable one, but I am looking to purchase a floor standing model. I am really looking forward to watching more of your analysis. Not all light is the same, as you say.

You are most welcome :)

After seeing it's only 22$ on amazon and my apartment lights are only 800 lumens I'll give them a try.

Is it worth it to buy a larger model

if you've got the space, it might be an easier way to get the light intensity you need without it having to be too close to your face.

Measuring illuminance is complicated, but simply saying "10,000 lux" is a bit nonsensical unless they also say over what distance/surface area that is measuring, similar to how sound measured in DbA is always stated with a distance. The item you linked does specify 10klux at 10cm (presumably using the implicit surface area of 1m^2), which is a lot more than most of the cheaper ones on Amazon that simply state 10,000 lux with no other qualifier, and if measured would probably be at 1mm :D!

100% love this comment! The lighting industry have simplified this wayyy too much and often don’t share the distances and surface areas that are crucial in understanding whether they meet the clinically recognised threshold to treat SAD. Having said that, many historical studies assessing clinical benefit have also been guilty of just stating Lux without much more. It’s intuitively likely that there will be some benefit even below the studied threshold but when it comes to purchasing a light, people want to know they’re getting one that works! Really appreciate your comment, it’s a really important consideration!

Is there one that does both?

Lol exactly

He didn't say which ones are good. I'm looking for one that gives the best light specifically for treating SAD The ones I find are adjustable, which means they can be set to not work properly

Thanks for stopping by! As it happens, over the next few weeks I’m actually going to be making a series of videos on SAD lamps including specifics of the best options to buy for your situation and at different price points! Feel free to pop back in a week or so (or just hit subscribe and KZread will let you know when it’s released!)
