Unfortunately, the brand Litepod do not distribute in the US and Canada, so we have come up with a comparible product that functions in the same way so that you don’t have to compromise on quality. It is also very stylish just like the Litepod, extremely compact and great value for money.

The Sad Light Box Review team got together to do a special review on the Litepod sad light box. We compared it to leading light box competitors, such as Philips compact SAD lamps and the Rio desk SAD lamp. The Litepod has a couple of features that puts it head and shoulder above its rivals.

What the Litepod really has going for it is hinted in the name – it is light, so easy to transport, and it is compact so can fit discreetly into your home or work place. The Litepod sad light box is currently the smallest lightbox of its kind on the market at the moment.

The Sad Light Box Review teams favourite feature of the Litepod is that whilst treatment can be completed in 45 minutes, you can leave your sad Litepod sad light on all day if you wish as it is a great working light and wont harm you. This is something that you cannot do with other sad lamps as your eyes will become strained.

Unlike other compact SAD lightboxes, the Litepod sad light has the full 10,000 Lux power that you need to get the most benefits out of your light therapy. Some competitors have as little as 5,000 Lux output. It has been scientifically proven that 5,000 Lux is likened to a partially sunny day rather than brilliant sunshine which is of course what most of us are looking for.

The Full Spectrum Lighting Litepod that we have found above is a brilliant product at a great price. Because Seasonal Affective Disorder is so disabling, causing symptoms that range from depression to anxiety to insomnia, Litepod have managed to bring you this Light box with no VAT added. With the VAT ommision, the Litepod that we sourced is a truly affordable piece of kit.

Here is one of a folder of reviews that we sourced on the Litepod Sad Light:

“I bought this for my husband to use in the office and I cannot emphasise enough what a difference it made to him in the space of 3-4 days! He very quickly felt that the energy he seemed to be lacking had returned and then some!
He uses it every morning for a couple of hours and even brings it home at weekends to contnue with this pattern. The benefit that I am getting without using this product myself is that he does the ironing at home when having his weekend sessions. Everyone is a winner!”
J. Warren (Scotland)

For those of you who know that you will be traveling with your Litepod to work or on holiday, I thoroughly recommend that you get yourself the Litepod Travel Set. It is the same as the regular Litepod, except that you will be able to carry it in its own special bag to protect it during transit.

The Litepods all come with 3 years warranty, which is brilliant as most other products, including Philips, will only give you a maximum of 2 years as standard.

If you live in the US or Canada, you will love the SunBox Sunlight Jr. Portable Sunlight. It has to be the most popular sad light purchased to date in America and Canada.

As the name hints, it is lightweight and easy to transport. It has an innovative triangular shape so that it can be slotted in almost anywhere.

The maximum output of the Sunlight Jr. is 10,000 Lux which is what you must have if you want to get the best light therapy treatment. You can also position yourself further away from the light to reduce the Lux if your eyes need a period of adjustment.

The glare free Sunlight Jr. has a 2 year warranty on the bulb, and a lifetime warranty on the light itself. The Sad Light Box Review team have never seen this anywhere before, we are still in shock! Who doesn’t want a lifetime warranty on thier product purchase?

The Sad Light Box team have to say that the Sunlight Jr is in our top 3 favourites in the US.

If you want proof that this product is really worth it, then I can help. Here is just one of lots of great reviews that we have collated:

“I have had seasonal depression (SAD) for as long as I can remember. I am 40 Now and have been getting treatment since I was 27. My previous treatment was increasing my antidepressant in the winter in about the end of September through March. I lived in Wisconsin, Where the days are very short in the winter. I would take out my lamp and sit in front of it for 45 min -1hour per day and in December increase it to twice a day. I was able to eliminate the increase of antidepressant medication. And I felt better than ever before! More energy, the SAD was gone. If I felt it coming back, I took another 30 min on the light and it would shoot it down. I started this when I was 29 in 1999, and am still using the light each winter season with the same success. I now live in Texas, and do not have to take it out until Nov 1, but I get the same results. It is now 2009. Thank God for my SunBox! I don’t even leave home without it in the winter months.”
Jenny .S., Texas 2009

We thoroughly recommend that you check out these great products whilst they are VAT free and good value for money.

Extra Litepod Tips and Tactics

If you are investing in a Sad Litepod Sad Light, it is a really good idea to spend the extra few pounds to get a travel case. You will be suprised as how quickly your light can get damaged or scratched, especially on public transport.

Remember that Sad Litepods can be used as regular work lights as well as for light therapy treatment. Try using your litepod lightbox whilst working on the  computer or when doing any detailed work such as craft or simply whilst reading.

To avoid eyes strain or headaches, build up light baths slowly, starting with 10 minutes on your first day.

Litepod Lightbox Review
Animals react to the changing seasons with changes in mood, metabolism and behaviour and human beings are just the same. Most people find they eat and sleep slightly more in winter and dislike the dark mornings and short days.
