I have an older version of the dawn alarm that used to be the recommended set-up at CET. I think I’ve had it for nearly 7 years now.

I have a control box (timer and dim control) connected to an extremely bright halogen lamp. It is VERY difficult to avoid the bright light in the morning as it slowly gets brighter and brighter. I mean, I’d have to put a blanket over my head to shield my eyes from it. It’s that bright. I wake without a sound alarm every morning.

The smaller, less bright dawn alarm lights now sold on CET are not nearly as bright.

At one time, I moved the halogen lamp set-up into one of my kid’s rooms for her to try, and I used the table top version now sold on CET. It’s easy to turn your head and avoid the light with those. JMO.

When she went off to college, I took the halogen lamp set-up back!

The negative ion generator was a complete game changer, for me. If I had not read about the research results at CET, I would never have believed something like that could work to elevate mood. Sounds like pure quackery.
