Verilux HappyLight Alba – New Round UV-Free LED Therapy Lamp, Bright White Light with 10,000 Lux, Adjustable Brightness, Color, and Countdown Timer

Cleare the morning fog
If you live in a place with gray winters, this light is a must-have. I’ve been using the Verilux HappyLight as part of my morning routine, and the difference in my energy levels is noticeable. It provides a bright, clean light that really helps clear the morning fog and get my brain into “work mode.”The design is slim and doesn’t take up much space on a desk, making it easy to use while I’m reading or working on my laptop. It’s simple to operate, but the real value comes from the consistency of using it every day. It has become a key tool for staying disciplined with my mood and focus when the sun isn’t out. Highly recommended for anyone looking to maintain their momentum year-round.

Controls are tricky, but the instructions are well-written and clarify it.
This is my third or fourth “happy light” over the years. It looks very nice and sleek and works great. The only issue I have is the style takes precedence over the function. The controls are very subdued on the rear of the lamp– it is tricky to find them by just using the feel. The timer button is really counter-intuitive. I have to crack open the instruction manual to figure our the strange formula of short and long presses to set the time. The instructions are well-written and explain it well, but I would have never been able to set the timer without the directions.The light is plenty bright enough. It has three different color temperatures and three brightness settings.I would have liked a longer cable for it, but it uses a standard USB-C connection, so I have longer cables around.

Sun on my desk
My PCP recommend this to help fight the fatigue of our dreary PNW rain, at first I was skeptical but after using it for a while I can already feel the vitamin D working. Has a timer and different modes of brightness. Turn it on while you’re getting ready in the morning and get your sunshine fix before even leaving the house!! Love Love Love!

The Happiest Light I have ever purchased
If you love having the attributes of beauty, function, efficacy and health in the material goods of your life, then I can not recommend the Alba Happy Light enough. I wanted to feel like:I was sitting outside on a very sunny day (but not like on a beach with blazing sun)feel the health benefits of that exposure in uplift in mood and functioningnot add more bulky apparatuses to my work space or relaxation spacehave everything I put in my living spaces add beauty and look elegant….and the Alba Happy Light delivered! I would put one in every room if I could afford it. It is a beautiful round shape, elegant and fairly small. It brightens the room, and makes the space feel cheery even on a dark and cloudy day. In fact, you will be “singing in the rain” (singing on a rainy day). I clearly feel better at the end of a work day when I have to work inside all day by having it around me. And it is easy to move around – so lightweight – you can just move it from room to room with you. I love this product. You do need to be mindful about the charger attachment as when I wasn’t careful it bent when I let the lamp fall. However, the customer service is as excellent as the light itself! They resupplied me with a whole unit! I have also loved some of the other verilux lamps – yet the Alba is the queen for me! It will bring happiness to your office or home!

I’ve been using another lamp from a different company for years now but wanted to try this one as well. I’ve been using it for several days now and can confirm positive results. What I like:-The unit feels robust and everything feels high quality.-The LED light is perfectly uniform and reveals little to no flickering when I point my camera at it unlike my first SAD lamp.-Choice of 3 tints from white – warm – warmest is an excellent option.-Touch controls work well. Love the timer feature that uses LED lights to show much time is left-Solid stand. One reason I chose this is the other lamps have flimsy looking stands. The only disadvantage is this one is fixed and cannot be adjusted or removed-Completely silent. My first lamp has a hissing sound.-3 year warranty, giving me peace of mind that I can use this for hours on end.-The lamp is just as bright as my other one that is rated at 10,000 lux at 7 inches. The manual says this lamp is rated at 10,000 lux at 6 inches perhaps because of the smaller light area. I prop the lamp on a box and keep it close to my face to achieve this (see picture). But remember, you can keep the lamp further if desired, but you just need to have longer sessions to get the same therapeutic effects.-The benefits I’ve noticed is that I am more alert and don’t easily get sleepy during the day. I also get tired early at night, making it easy to go to bed early, stay asleep, and wake up early. I also notice a better mood overall. When I wake up in the morning and have adjusted to normal indoor light, I then use this lamp at the lowest setting and slowly increase every minute or so until at max brightness. I use the lamp for 1-3 hours in the morning and don’t use it past 2pm. My sleep has been amazing also because I don’t spend my evenings on a screen anymore but go to sleep early after reading a book.

I have never used one of these lights.This is small compared to a lot that is offered which appealed to me. I like the ease of use and the options you have in setting it up to use. You have 4 light strengths and 4 colour shades of light to choose from. How effective less light would be I have no idea. It is bright, but you can start out with a lower setting for light intensity and time and work up to what you need. The booklet is clear in directions and use. Heed the warnings if you have any issues.I bought this in November with skepticism it’d would help, HOWEVER I have found it has helped me through the darker period of winter so far, and I am less dragged down by the grey weather on the coast. Also my sleep has improved incredibly which was a huge surprise for me.I would recommend it, but you have to know it takes awhile – a month or 2 before you may feel some effects.

I love the different warmth and brightness settings. This lamp also works great for taking photos since it mimics natural light!I did have an issue with the charger breaking after several months of use. But I emailed the company and a replacement is on it’s way!
