Bodyclock Spark 100 - Wake-up Light Alarm Clock with Sleep Sunset, white/off-white

Had this a little while now before writing review. This is a great click, the light starts from a soft red to a bright white light, which is nice to wake you up, the alarm is not to loud. Easy to set up and has lots of functionality, glad a bought it

Having gone deaf, alarms that use sound aren't any good to me. I've had a wake-up light before from Phillips but I actually prefer my Lumie one, and here's why: 1. You can turn off the sound, which might be good for some hearing people. This model of Lumie light has an *optional* beep, but you can turn it to zero when you set the alarm. More expensive Lumie models have background sounds like mountain streams, goats, etc, but this one doesn't. The sound on my old Phillips one couldn't be turned off, and (back when I could hear it!), was rudely awoken by what sounded like a gong and a furious baboon. 2. You can turn off the clock display. If you want complete darkness in your room at night, or you find seeing the time annoying if you're struggling to sleep, this is a great setting. Once it's turned off, you just need to tap the light for the clock to show for a couple of seconds. It'll also display if you put something down next to the light! But that's not a big problem. 3. You can change the brightness of the clock display. An option if you don't want to turn off the display completely but don't want to have the time seered into your eyeballs. 4. The wake-up time is set at half an hour. So if you set your alarm for 7 am the light starts to glow from 6.30 am. More expensive Lumies (and maybe cheaper ones from other brands) give you a selection of wake-up periods (eg. 15, 30, or 45 minutes), but I find 30 minutes perfectly fine for me. 5. It has a sunset setting. So if you want to be lulled to sleep with the room slowly darkening, this would be great for you. Again, this is set at 30 minutes. 6. You can use it as a bedside light. Just use the plus button to turn it on, and minus to turn off (you'll need to press them several times as it goes through the phases of the sunrise/sunset cycles. 7. It's fairly easy to use. Just read the manual first, and it'll all make a lot of sense!

Does it do the job? Yep! My body clock is all over the place in winter. Usually a choice between sleeping in or dragging myself out of my pit zombified, with a blaring alarm. The Lumie has sorted me out. I now wake in the morning in the same way I do in summer! It is a nice, gentle, wake up which leaves me feeling fit for the day ahead. It's not a miracle worker, I still have to go to sleep at a reasonable hour, and stay asleep, to feel refreshed of a morning but it is a really good method of waking up. I've had it for a little over a month and even when I have forgotten to set it at night, I have still woken at the usual time. This suggests that it is genuinely adjusting my body clock. Made of plastic but not flimsy, looks quite nice. LED light doesn't use loads of electric and should last for years. The buttons are a bit of a shame. Flush with the facia so not easy to find in the dark. There aren't any extra features, even those you may expect with a digital alarm clock. it does what it says and not one jot more. I am disappointed that it does not have a battery back up to keep the clock on when unplugged but it is quick and easy to reset the clock and it does retain the alarm settings, although I still have to click through to confirm them each night. Being able to set the digital clock display to turn itself off is an excellent feature. They have designed the display to come back on with the slightest touch. That can be a problem because the slightest vibration brings it back on. Really pleased with the purchase. I highly recommend these daylight alarms to everyone. Price is steep but it was worth it to me to go with a trusted brand where I could be confident the light was tuned to the correct frequency. There are many cheaper versions with more features out there and in hindsight, I may have tried one of those before paying £75.

I had purchased another light before for £30 off Amazon. It was one of those cylinder yokes with a really shiny finish. I just didn't think I wanted to pay £80 for an alarm but in hindsight I should've gone for Lumie right away. The light looks much nicer in the room. I like the matte look of the light cover. The light is much nicer than the cheaper product I used before and it actually changes brightness much smoother. It's easy to set up and I like that the time turns of automatically at night (if you chose that setting). Personally, I don't use the Alarm tone but I could see how people may be looking for alternative sounds such as forest sounds, birds etc. The cheaper light I had before had that option, this Lumie does not as far as I can tell. Either way, the light makes waking up a much nicer experience. I tend to set an alarm a few minutes after Lumie reaches peak brightness just to make sure I get up. In 90% of the cases I'm up already. I really enjoy it. It's quite pricey but I think you certainly see the quality difference over a cheap light.

Brilliant light for waking up. I bought this one to replace a very old Lumie that had lasted me about 8 years. I was pleased to see that this one doesn’t need a lightbulb! It feels sturdier and is easy to use with the manual. I would recommend this to anyone. It is a bit expensive but will last you years and is totally worth it compared to cheaper ones.

Prima wekker, jammer dat er geen verschillende wekkergeluiden zijn om te kiezen

Consigliatissimo per chi fa fatica a svegliarsi il mattino la uso già da mesi e posso dire che fa tutta la sua differenza. Peccato che se si scollega dalla corrente si cancella l'orario.

Versand und Verpackung waren gut. Der Wecker ist wertig verarbeitet. Leicht zu bedienen und macht genau was er soll.

Well made, does exactly what it says it will do and easy to use

It helps so much to wake up easily, especially when it's dark outside in the morning. It also calm you down with gentle light when you going to sleep
