If you share a bedroom with someone else, this person may unintentionally wake up from the
,
light of the appliance, even though this person is further removed from the appliance. This
phenomenon is the result of differences in light sensitivity between people.
If you start having trouble waking up again, this is possibly due to a decrease in the lamp's
,
light output that occurs after some time. In that case, you can increase the light level or
replace the lamp.

from or are suffering from a serious depression.

a Philips 100W E27 SOFTONE softwhite 230V T55 lamp (HF3462, HF3461).
