Inspired by nature's sunrise the Philips Wake-up Light uses a unique combination of light therapy and sound to wake you in a more natural way. Making it easier to get out of bed, ready for the day ahead.
Inspired by nature's sunrise, light gradually increases within 30 minutes until your room is filled with bright yellow light. This process of changing an increasing light stimulates your body to wake up naturally. By the time light has filled the room your chosen natural sound completes the wake up experience, leaving you ready for the day ahead.
At your set wake up time natural sound will play to complete the wake up experience and ensure you are awake. The selected sound gradually increases in volume to your selected level within one and a half minutes. There are three natural sounds you can choose from: Bird Song, Birds in the forest and Zen Garden.
At this moment in time the Philips wake-up light is the only one scientifically proven to work. In order to make the Wake-up Light the best possible product it can be in genuinely waking you up naturally and energised we have done a lot of clinical research. This research was conducted by independent science facilities to study and prove the effects of the wake-up light on the overall wake-up experience. This way we have proven, among other things, that the Philips Wake-up Light not only wakes you more naturally, but also more energised and that it improves your mood in the morning.
Philips was founded over 100 years ago as a company that produced and sold lightbulbs. Over 100 years Philips grew into a global company that brings innovation in lots of different areas. To this day lighting still is the soul of Philips. The Wake-up Light is proud to continue its heritage by building on years of knowledge and expertise of the world's most well-known lighting expert.
Sensitivity to light differs from person to person. In general, when using a higher light intensity a person needs less time to become fully awake. The 20 light intensities of the Wake-up light can be personalised and even be set to up to 300 lux. 92% of users agree that it is easier to get out of bed92% of users agree that it is easier to get out of bed Independent research* shows that 92% of Philips Wake-up light users find it is easier to get out of bed (Metrixlab 2011, N=209)
Very quick delivery of this item. Love the product, definitely recommend for SAD sufferers.
This light really does work well. At its brightest it provides a good strong light, but this will then dim down to almost nothing. Just about all the settings can be adjusted, so you can customise how it will work in a way that suits you. One criticism is that the bird sounds repeat on quite a short cycle and so after a couple of minutes it starts to sound rather predictable. This is a great shame as the sounds themselves are very realistic. As a consequence we try to turn off the sound as soon as we can - otherwise would happily listen to them for ages! Best Alarm clock ever.
