So How Does the TaoTronics
TT-CLO16 Light Therapy Lamp Work?

---

It’s that time of year again when a lot of people are feeling down. 

This situation is nothing freaky. It’s actually quite common and natural to boot. 

This is why

People should not panic and fear depression. 

Sometimes, it’s just because of the natural situation. 

You know what I’m talking about?

Winter season. During winter, the days are shorter and the nights are longer. 

Some of us don’t even like going out in the cold. 

As a result

We get limited sunlight. 

Sunlight is very important to people. There are so many more benefits to being blanketed by the warmth of the sun other than a good tan. 

Look:

One of the many benefits of sunlight is serotonin. This is a neurotransmitter that is connected with happiness. 

Guess which time of the year does serotonin have its highest levels?

Summer!

However, it doesn’t have to be a problem this winter season. 

The Taotronics TT-CLO16 Light Therapy Lamp can be your own sunlight–without giving you sunburn.

What does it do?

For one, it copies the full spectrum of light that one can find in daylight. 

This way, you get your daily dose of sunshine even without going out of the house. 

Bring the beachy atmosphere inside your room, why don’t you?

How do you use it?

Just place the lamp between 5.5 to 20 inches from you. 

Since it is a lamp, you may put it on a table or the desk where you could be having your morning coffee. 

Or you can have your light therapy while you are doing work. 

Things you should know:

This is less than two pounds, which means you can take it with you wherever you want to go. 

It has 10,000 lux intensity light and 6,500 Kelvin color temperature. 

As for the brightness

You can adjust it between 20% and 100%. 

That’s a wide range that allows you to choose the best brightness for your needs.

There is a plus and minus button at the bottom so that you can adjust the brightness and dimness according to what you need. 

Finally

You can set a timer for 30 minutes.

The Good

---

Bringing the beach vibe inside your home. What could be better than that?

Almost nothing else!

But that’s really a major gain from having the TaoTronics lamp. 

It’s going to be always sunny at home. 

Imagine this:

It’s gonna be sunny wherever you go considering that the lamp is so light. 

It comes with its own protective pouch, so you know that it’s really meant for travel. 

Wherever you go, it’s going to be a sunny day!

Isn’t that exciting?

This lamp is less than half-an-inch thick, which means that it’s really unobtrusive when you take it with you wherever you go. 

Not only that, the design is so muted. It’s white but that purity exudes elegance. 

In a way

When you put it on your desk or wherever you want it, it’s not going to look out of place.

If it does look out of place, it would be in a positive manner. 

That’s right!

The cord is also quite long, which allows you to find the right spot for your desk and lamp.

Moving on

The stand is rotatable. 

This means you can use the lamp in portrait or landscape mode. 

Plus

The tilt can also be adjusted. 

You have a choice between 40 and 100 degrees. 

Here’s the deal:

Seasonal depression is real. Most of the time, it will be abated with the passing of winter. 

But do you really have to go through the winter blues if you can avoid it?

On the other hand

Seasonal depression may become a full-blown clinical depression if it’s not managed well. 

With the TaoTronics Light Therapy Lamp, you at least have a chance to not go through any form of depression at all. 

You know what

Even with simple mood swings, this lamp can really help you improve your everyday disposition. 

It’s also affordable. 

There’s really no reason not to get it!

The Bad

---

In terms of getting “sunlight” at home, this light therapy lamp works really well. 

However

There are some minor issues, too. 

For one, the dimming buttons don’t work really well. 

To be clear

They aren’t really buttons. There is a plus and minus sign at the bottom of the lamp. 

Sometimes, you press it with a light finger and it works. Sometimes, it works when you press it really hard. 

Confusing?

Yeah, that’s how I felt, too!

Another thing:

Wouldn’t it be better if the pouch also had a pocket for the cord?

I’m just thinking that it would be easier if the two would go together. 

Better yet

What if you don’t have to use the cord at all? 

Of course, it’s so thin that there is no space for a battery. But don’t you think it’s just so swell if you don’t have to use the cord?

Just saying!

The Beautiful

---

Light therapy is proven effective in treating seasonal affective disorder or SAD. The TaoTronics lamp is really good at improving one’s mood. 

The best part about this effective light therapy lamp is its lightness and portability. You can take it anywhere with you to enjoy artificial sunlight. This way, even when it’s cold out, you still get that beachy vibe.

---

And Does It Work?

---

It does! And it works very well, too. 

There are also hundreds of people who are really satisfied with the efficiency of the TaoTronics TT-CLO16 Light Therapy Lamp.

Some people have used this in offices where there are no windows. There are a lot of offices with this setting. At least, they have a chance to feel the sun on their faces. 

Even if the office has a line of windows, not all people will be lucky enough to get a space near them. 

Some people have called this the happy light and I agree 100%.

Other Options

If you like the Taotronics TT-CLO16 Light Therapy Lamp, then you might also like these similar products from the brand:

For people who liked the TT-CLO16, then they will most certainly enjoy the TT-CLO18, too. It has double the lamp! It still has 10,000 lux but has more light. 

There is also a cheaper version of the two, the TT-CLO12. Instead of a rectangular lamp, this one is a circle. It’s also smaller and is better for compact spaces.
