Blue light is bad to use because it stunts melatonin. Is there an option of yellow light? Can't imagine red wd be soothing.

Hello Ninjabetic, and thanks for your question. At this time, a solid yellow setting is not available for the KinderGlo. The four light settings are solid green, solid blue, solid red, and continuous color changing. While some of the colors in the cycle are brighter than others, in general all of the light settings are soft enough to sleep by. As far as concerns about impeding melatonin levels, the science behind this shows that lights with a brightness of under 5 lux have no effect on the body's production of melatonin. Because we use soft LED lights which are then filtered through a translucent plastic body, the brightness of the KinderGlo never reaches 1 lux. The lights are bright enough to see by, but soft enough to sleep by.

I sent it back, that product sucks! I got the Lamplust solar mason jar by sunlight. It was more money but it works great and has two settings- regular yellow and RGB mode...I own 3 now.

Before considering, check on the safety of the blue light spectrum on the eyes. This may be a discussion you should have with your physician before using a device such as this product.

I've had the TT-AL09 120w for over a year now that has just the blues and whites. I agree with GCO and definitely look at a full spectrum fixture if you will have light hungry corals. I hope TaoTronics considers building a full spectrum light again.

It is difficult to answer this question. My wife doesn't use the light for a couple of hours after waking, but she is also taking medication. She is definitely feeling better, but is it the meds or the light?

Soak it in vinegar I suppose. Mine is stuck with blue mode only. No more red or green

you can adjust Blue vs. White intensity (from 0% to 100% output on each)... It's been a quite reliable system. I also like the gradual shifts from 'time presets' over the course of the day.

Yes, it goes to red first,mbut have to cycle through the rest to turn off. I guess you could close your eyes before switching to preserve night vision.

For the person who leaves the blue light on all night.... that is probably not good for your fish. They need sleep without light. Blue light is not the same as no light, and it does not really mimic faded moonlight.

(dogs). Turn the blue light off when I try to sleep. Too bright. On during the day.

Im sorry... No suggestions... That sadly is exactly what happened with me. I just threw it away after about a week of it not turning on showing any motion with the lights. Maybe flip the black switch on the bottom and it may work.

oh. well, thanks for the info, but for me that's a deal breaker. Nice prices on the Kingstons, tho.It is mandatory for me to watch the broad blue LED on my Sony Microvault when it flashes, reassuring me that copying and/or saving are happening in the right place. It is a platter drive, however, and I am on a quest for a flash drive to back up my back up. It must be high capacity, fast, stylin, and have a flashy LED. Any suggestions?Plus I love to pause and admire the starry heaven of my office when I shut down for the night, lit up by all the gorgeous blue, red, and green LEDs - it is a veritable tech paradise... oh. well, thanks for the info, but for me that's a deal breaker.

Hey tuna, I placed a new set of batteries in, placed it on bright setting and left it on...I had to leave 2.5 hours later and I did not detect any significant degrading in light quality. I've used it at 2 hour gigs with the same results. Hope this helps.

I would say the light is closer to 6500k (more blue than white). I found this annoying because even though I enjoy white light for daily tasks it is too white/blue for me to keep on during the night. It is also a lot brighter than I expected!

I did some research on led emissions on TVs and the only thing I found was that the blue light can cause cataracts and bother your eyes.Philips goLITE BLU Light Therapy Device

Hey there... the blue light is antibacterial, that's what destroys the acne. The red supports healing and repair, as is great for reducing redness and speeding up recovery. This machine has been a serious miracle for me. My skin is the clearest its been in 20 years. Good luck :)
