Customer Reviews for TRU RED - Brightwell 5-in-1 Productivity LED Desk Light - White

This light has five different features helping me meet all my needs. The bright light is 10k lumens which is great when I don't get enough sunlight for an extra energy boost. The box breathing is good for both my clients and me during sessions. They seem to like the mood light features as well.

I love the touch button simplicity but what would have made this a 5 star product - ability to select time increments for each of the 4 settings. Keep the simple buttons but let the user pick the 10 min increment for focus to finish a quick task and once the light turns off it’s a signal to move to the next task. They can then set the meeting to 30 mins so the light turning off is a signal to wrap it up. The current increments are fine but just not helpful. Also a better stand for the light because it’s not a universal setup for monitors. Bring me back when this gets updated

I like this light. I am happy to receive it. I especially like the color changing setting. I have used the video lighting and it easily did the trick. I think the sun feature will come in handy in the winter. The busy sign is kind of a lot but I could see someone needing it. I am disappointed to find it doesn’t hold a charge rather it needs to constantly be plugged in to operate. It is an ok value for what I got it for but I do not see how it would be worth the full price. Certainly easy enough to use and useful if you have need of something like this.

We haven't had the light long enough to see how beneficial it could be but just playing around with it has been good so far. One of my favorite features so far is the "breathing" light. I have tried that one a couple of times while I was overwhelmed and it made me smile. Simple but cool idea. The "focus" I tend to have on the most because it looks fun. I suppose in the simplest form it does make me smile an there for keeps me going. I'm curious to see if this product will be as effective as people say a happy light can be.

I was surprised on how bright the light can get as soon asI plugged it into my laptop. Having the “Busy” light definitely helps as others walking into my office can see it immediately.I should have bought 2!

The device has a variety of nice features. I bought it for the portability and the sun shine light but also really enjoy the focus light while working. Down Sides: would love for it to have had a chargeable battery on board a place to keep/ hide the cord and a notch in the clip so the cord could more easily go under it and allow for better grip on the laptop screen.

The bright red BUSY lights is so useful when I’m doing something or in a meeting to notify others in my house to not interrupt. I like the color changes to help give me good lighting in meetings and also to help me relax and rejuvenate.
