PHILIPS WAKE-UP LIGHT
Do you hate waking up to blazing alarms that leave you dazed and with a headache at times? Don’t we all? They are the last thing that we want to hear while being woken from a sound sleep. Say hello to the Philips Wake-Up Light that uses a light that gradually gets brighter to wake you up. If you don’t think that would work to actually wake you up, you can still use the iPod/iPhone dock to do it with music, and the coolest feature, is that the light works in reverse at night time, gradually turning itself off to help you get to sleep easily.
