Description
Enhance your mood and increase your energy in a natural way by using the Aurora LightPad MAX™ light box today!
The Aurora LightPad MAX™ light box is the largest LED box on the market. Ranging from 10,000 – 25,000 LUX. The Aurora LightPad MAX™ light box uses 600 bright white LED lights to help you combat the symptoms of seasonal affective disorder, winter blues, sleep disorders and other mood disorders.
LED lights have a longer lifespan without using mercury or emitting harmful UV rays. Since LED bulbs are much smaller and more durable than fluorescent light bulbs, it helps make the Aurora LightPad MAX™ light box compact for use and travel.
Although LED light bulbs cost more to produce, LED bulbs last much longer. Incandescent bulbs burn out when the filament breaks. But since Aurora LED lights don’t use a filament, they can last as much as 100 times longer than a normal incandescent bulb. By using Aurora LED lights in the Aurora LightPad MAX™ light box, you will never replace a bulb again.
Packed with features:
The Aurora LightPad MAX™ light box is 10,000 LUX @ 30″ and also has a built in fully adjustable stand. You can control the angle of the light with thirteen different angle options. With the low-high intensity controls, you can choose the right level of brightness to reach your desired comfort level for light therapy treatment.

Great for SAD, and starting your day after the sun goes down. I was using the mini, which works great as well, but as the web site’s description states, bigger is better. This model casts a broader beam so the user will is more likley to sit in an optimal andel. This panel does not get hot either. Would buy one of these every year if i had to.

Calling this light “bright” does not even describe it. It is important that you use it in a well lit room. That may sound funny because it is a big bright light, but it is difficult to sit very close to it in a dark room. Your eyes cannot adjust to the rest of the room if you are so close to it when the rest of the room is dark.
I turned it on in a brightly lit room during the middle of the day and it still brightened the room when other lights made no impact.
It is easy to use – set down the foot in the back, plug in, and turn on.
As for light therapy, I did receive a recommendation that it helps your body if the light comes from above your eye level and that is a challenge with this unit. It does not have a mounting bracket to allow you to put it on an arm. If you put it on a shelf above eye level, the foot does not allow you to angle it downward toward you.
Overall, I am very impressed with the light.

I recommend both the NorthStar 10,000 and the Aurora LightPad MAX for all my patients that suffer from Seasonal Depression and Seasonal Affective Disorder. I am a true believer in bright light therapy and have numerous patients benefit from this treatment. It is a natural and safe treatment that is incredibly effective.

If you want a portable small but effective lightbox which is the recommended 10,000 Lux, I recommend this product highly. Purchased it this week and have just ordered another power cord so I do not have to transport cord from one room or place to another. Customer service prompt and courteous. Beth is sending out power cord today for reasonable price. I have two friends that have looked at the light box and are seriously considering purchasing it. Living here in Maine the shorter days and cold Winters really have an effect on one’s mood especially if one has SAD. I am a retired therapist and purchased 10 years ago a larger light box that was bulky and no longer practical as I have a small condo. Let’s stay in the light.!

I bought the lightpad to help with my winter blues. We had a long and dark winter and I was ready to try anything to make a positive impact. A few points I liked about it: It’s small and easy to move around. I like the easy buttons on front, which adjusts the brightness. I also liked how it had an attached, adjustable stand. Great product.

I was surprised at how easy it was to use the Aurora LightPad MAX. It’s small and compact, making it easy for me to use anywhere in my house, and I couldn’t believe how bright it was. It is a great alternative when there isn’t sunshine.

The first thing that drew me to the Aurora LightPad MAX was the size of the light. As you can see, it is perfect to set up on my side table, and makes it easier to read…or play a little sudoku. For such a small light, it emits a lot of light, which makes it easier when I’m using the Aurora LightPad MAX in the morning. I would definitely recommend buying one!

We bought the Alaska Northern Lights Mini for my mother-in-law to help with her sleep cycle regulation. It’s a compact design that enables placement between you and your keyboard, when seated at a desk typing. This allows you to work while you receive treatment. Likewise, it can be easily placed below you sight line as you watch morning TV. The 10,000 lux machine meets criteria for 30-60 minute treatments at 24-30 inches from user. The power of the unit allows for placement an extra 6 inches than most units. Hopefully, ANL can produce a battery operated unit so you aren’t tethered to an outlet.

Bringing “sunshine” to the winter blues!
Alaska Northern lights is, in my opinion, the best commercially available option providing treatment devices for full spectrum light boxes to mitigate SAD symptoms during the winter months. I have purchased several of their products over the years, all of which were helpful.
Most recently, I purchased the LED LightPad. This is by far my favorite device of this sort. It’s powerful, lightweight, and highly portable. I find it works best when connected to a gooseneck stand (see attached photo). But even without the stand, it is effective; and I travel with it during the winter wherever I go. In addition to making a great product, the people who work at Alaska Northern Lights are a pleasure to talk to.
In this era of fake, positive online reviews, please note that I have written this review solely because I believe in the product, and I want to share the relief it has brought me. This is the one you want!

My PCP recommended the Alaska Northern Lights product because of the quality, durability, and effectiveness. I bought one this Fall and it has really helped with my seasonal depression. I highly recommend Aurora LightPad MAX.
