Why Sleep Matters

What happens while you sleep has a huge impact on your life. People who don’t get enough sleep have problems making decisions, solving problems, being productive, controlling their emotions, and coping with change. They are also at greater risk of major health issues such as heart disease, diabetes, and stroke.

Drift Light

Drift to Sleep

The Drift Light has been designed to mimic a sunset by slowly dimming over 37 minutes. This gives your body that gradual shift from light to darkness and gives you the opportunity to engage in relaxing activities to help you feel sleepy.

The Drift Light can also be set to Moonlight Mode, which dims down to a nightlight mode. Moonlight mode gives off just enough light to keep you safe without using up an outlet, or for kids that need a little bit of light to sleep.

  • Daylight Mode (550 lumens)
  • Midnight Mode (Fades to dark in 37 minutes)
  • Moonlight Mode (Fades to low in 37 minutes)
  • Connection: Standard E27 (Edison)
  • This bulb's special functionality does not work with dimmer switches

Light Temperature

The bluer light emitted from electronics and some energy efficient bulbs is especially bad for sleep. Studies done at Harvard and the University of Toronto have shown that blue light suppresses melatonin (your body’s natural sleep agent) twice as much as other kinds of light.

The Drift Light helps solve this problem in two ways. First, it is designed to slowly dim over time to help promote relaxation and an increase in melatonin. It also uses a much warmer form of light than other bulbs. By reducing the amount of blue light emitted, which also increases melatonin and helps get you ready for sleep.

Safety

During your nightly routine you probably go through the whole house and turn off all the lights, and risk stumbling over furniture on your way back to the bedroom.

Nightlights on your outlets are an unsightly compromise for safety.

The Drift Light’s Moonlight Mode can be activated during your bedtime routine, giving you plenty of time to get ready for bed.

Moonlight mode gives off just enough light to keep you safe without using up an outlet.

Kids Stay In Bed

Routines are important to help anyone get to sleep. But for kids, routines are even more important. Even slightest of disruptions will throw off their sleep routines and cause them to wake up, and then come wake you up. Having an easy transition from waking to sleeping helps.

The Drift Bulb automatically dims over a period of 37 minutes, the same time as an average sunset,easing kids to sleep while keeping them from getting up and turning the light off . For kids that need a little bit of light to sleep, the Drift Light can be set to Moonlight Mode, which dims down to a nightlight mode.

Product Description

The drift light has been designed to mimic a sunset by slowly dimming over 37 minutes. This gives your body that gradual shift from light to darkness and gives you the opportunity to engage in relaxing activities to help you feel sleepy. The drift light can also be set to moonlight mode, which dims down to a nightlight mode. Moonlight mode gives off just enough light to keep you safe without using up an outlet, or for kids that need a little bit of light to sleep. To make life simple, we designed the drift light to be activated only using a regular light switch: flip it twice to activate the dimming cycle, three times for moonlight mode. Drift away from sleepless nights and let nature put you to sleep.

Customers like the dimming of the light source. They say the moonlight mode does a great job of dimmING over the 37 minutes.

I love this light bulb. I have had problems falling asleep for years. In the past I would read until I was sleepy and then turn the light off. But when I would reach to turn the light off it was enough to wake me up and when I couldn't fall asleep I would turn the light on and start over. This would happen several times a night. Recently I discovered that if I don't turn the light off I can fall asleep. However it is not a healthy idea to sleep with the light on because apparently melatonin is produced during darkness and necessary for normal sleep patterns. So this drift light bulb is the perfect answer. It really works nicely for my situation. I would recommend it to anyone who suffers from difficulties falling asleep. Also for parents who are looking for a way to soothe fearful children gently to sleep, it has a night light mode and doesn't shut off completely. Thank you to the Saffron idea people and developers of this product. PS... This would be a great baby gift. I plan to order more for my grandchildren for bedtime reading. ZZZZzzzzzzz....pleasant dreams.

I have tried this bulb in several of my "household" lamps without success. There is no rhyme or reason to when this bulb decides to work. After three clicks, four, five,... If it does turn on there is no dimming at all before it turns off (at the 30-minute mark). Most of the time, however, I wake up with the light still on. I wouldn't consider this a smart buy and wouldn't purchase another. I am most likely going to try and return - hopefully without hassle.

My girls love their drift light! Every night before bed the flick the light to dim and then they know they have their 30 or so minutes left to read until it's bedtime. The moonlight function is great for littles a bit timid of the dark. The girls love too that they don't have to get comfy and then get back up to turn the light off. The gradual fade helps their brain and eyes adjust so it's not just light-dark. The only issue we had was it took some practice to get the on/off/dim/moonlight functions down a bit. It's a series of on and off and the bulb flashing which shows you that it's on. With practice you'll get it down.

I bought this for my 9 yr old son because bedtime always caused an argument: he wanted the light on, I wanted it off! I know that his body will not naturally fall asleep as easily with the light on. So when I saw the Drift Light I had to try it! So far it has worked great! I use it on his desk lamp, set it to midnight mode and he has 37 minutes of slowly dimming light. He doesn't always fall asleep by then, but there is no more arguing about lights on or off. It was a little pricey but I am extremely happy with my purchase! There have been some comments from people saying their light cuts off before the 37 minutes or doesn't fully dim, but I have not had any problems with ours. It does exactly what it claims, and its well worth it to eliminate that nighttime frustration!

If you define working as the light appears when you turn the switch, this still works. But it flickers, goes on and off, goes from steady light to timed light. For the price, not reliable. A real disappointment. Customer service does not exist.

We use this in nightlight mode for my 10 yo daughter who is afraid of the dark. She says she feels more secure with this light on, but I can't see any difference in her sleep patterns or quality versus a standard night light. I wish that the light went a little dimmer.

For me, the value is just not there based on the high price compared to personal benefits--there are cheaper alternatives that are just as good. I won't buy another one when this one burns out. I'll just buy an additional wall-plug night light if my daughter still demands more light at that time. I'm hoping that her aversion of the dark will have passed by that time.....

Update: July 2016--The bulb is still working. My daughter uses it every night.

I'm not one to usually write reviews. But I just LOVE this product. My wife and I had been having trouble agreeing on when to turn our light out (after our 12 y.o. goes to sleep, we both need time to unwind), and would end up not getting enough sleep, because either one or the other would stay up too late, and it's hard to sleep with the light on. I read about this product on a magazine article that was talking lightening and the important of sleep. The price seemed a little high, but so did the benefit. So I bought it. We've only had it for about ten days now, but we both love it! Once our son goes to sleep, we flicker the light switch 5 times, and get 37 min of progressing deeming until the light turns off on its own. I have no idea how then got to the seemingly arbitrary 37 min, but I have to say, it's PERFECT! Since I got this lightbulb, I've been sleeping great (not a small feat for me), and waking up more rested. Kudos to the bulb designers and thank you for a great product that's making my life better every day (and night).

Bulb did not work as intended. It would not dim over the 37 minutes, it would dim within less than one minute. It would not work as a regular lightbulb (i.e. with no dimming function). It was clearly a faulty model that I got, but probably not a robust design. Cheap. It is on it's way back.
