I like having it on during especially gloomy days when my window isn't bringing in any natural light. I would say it's brighter than I expected and casts a shadow when I have it on during Zoom calls. I wish there were different levels vs. just on or off.
I love my Happylight Compact light. Living in the north woods it is a must have light. It is perfect for the many cloudy days we have in the winter. Healthy and happy!
This is a great choice in happy lamp for those who need a little bit more happy light during the sadder times of the year. Excellent for use as a reading light or work light. I got this as a gift for my fiance, and we both love it and use it every day.
