Sleep-Supporting Chargers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Night Light by Mr Douglas Wood Encourages Sweet Dreams

— June 5, 2012 — Tech
The Night Light by Mr Douglas Wood encourages sleep, while discouraging excessive phone use at night. With the help of this sleek device, you'll be on your way to a better night's sleep and apart from your annoying cellphone. In today's technologically advanced world, individuals have become so intertwined with technology they cannot bear to be apart from it, even if it means a better night's sleep.

This device is designed to fit your iPhone and, once the phone is inserted, a soothing mood light is emitted. This light is designed to encourage a deep sleep while charging your phone. The only way one can access the mood light is to give up their precious phones.

If any messages or notifications are received when your phone is in, the piece will react by flashing brightly or vibrating. This action disturbs the user's deep sleep, causing individuals to wonder if it was really necessary for their phone to be on. The light can be used horizontally or vertically and its simplistic and sleek styling allows it to fit accommodations of all sizes and shapes. The device is available in both black and white, and can be matched to the coloring of your iPhone.
