I have own this light for a few year now and use it occasionally when I feel I need to be - set ' my circadian rhythm ... but I be never that impressed . the plug be HUGE and the light get extremely hot , which always worry I . the radio be not digital - it be a dial and my dial break long ago ... so I can not even see what station I be try to tune into . the light be nice to fall asleep to as it do help I wind down ... but the light be not bright enough to wake I up without the backup alarm . the glow of the clock be also too bright and I have to face that away from I or cover it with something to actually have a dark room . needless to say , I be shop for something new to replace this .
