Do any of you have a light alarm clock like the phillips HF3500 or HF3520? I've been looking at getting one as i wake up in a dark room. Do they help? Is the 3520 worth double the price?

I just wake up when I get tired holding my pee in.

sometimes you need to wake up early enough to get to work
I have the hf3520, was definitely worth it. Makes waking up a lot less stressful. I think the only difference from the cheaper one is that this one goes red-yellow-white in its sunrise simulation, while the cheaper one goes yellow-white, and I am not sure whether this actually matters.
That's what my phone is for. Are you one of those silly people who use actual watches and notepads too?

Thanks, As far as i can tell the differences are the color and the touch controls tv buttons of the cheaper, not sure those are worth an extra $60 but it does look sleeker.

A phone alarm works fine but it's more difficult waking up in a dark room.

That kinda looks like my gf

Have this one as well. I'll say that it makes me less cranky when getting up, and I do feel less sleepy during the day, but the downsides are the buttons on the sides do need some precision to tap in the mornings, especially when you're staring at a bright light.

It's snake oil.

Are there any apps that can mimic this effect? I feel like it wouldn't be too difficult to program, save maybe the colored lighting.

it could be done, but it wouldnt be nearly as useful.
these things can light up a room when near or at full brightness. your phone screen isnt strong enough to achieve the same results. neither brightness nor the ability to affect the eye/brain into thinking its daylight (unless you strapped it to your face while you slept)

Makes sense. That's a shame.

i was considering getting an arduino or something and some strip lights and doing it myself but seeing as the cheaper one is only $60 it wouldn't provide much savings and would be difficult/time consuming/expensive to get a nice looking product.
