Worth every penny
I was a huge skeptic of whether this was legitimate in its claims or not but decided to try it out. I travel to Asia from the US monthly and suffer from terrible jet lag especially on return. I just returned 3 days ago from a 4 day trip and use the Humancharger according to the schedule on the app. Not only did I have almost no exhaustion over my 4 days in China I have had zero issues on return. It seems to encourage very heavy sleep in my case and even a solid 8 hours on the return flight. For frequent travelers like me this is as big as finding eternal youth. I plan to test it again next month but based on this trip am a huge advocate. The design is compact, small and most importantly discreet so I can literally wear it during a meeting if I have to without disturb. Highly, highly recommend this life changing piece of technology and worth every dollar if I don't have to suffer like I used to.

The Concept Is Great But Hard To Quantify
I am using this light device to help me more quickly regulate my jet lag from travel. I got it after I returned home to the US from Australia, so I couldn't use it in advance to begin the adjustment.My friend from NZ who travels alot said it really helps him. So I am committed to continued use. I also put the earlights in each morning to give myself a little boost during this rainy weather.I'm buying one for a friend who travels alot as a gift. It's just a good idea. And I am a believer because the concept makes sense.

Humancharger for winter blues works!
I owned the previous version of what was called Valkee, pre-US release. I have used it almost daily throughout the winter months. I love the upgraded new version. The light is bluer, which is shown to be more effective. Very sleek case, and the lighted countdown timer is helpful.For winter blues or SAD this light is so effective! I have a large 10,000 lux light, and rarely have to pull it out and use. By consistent use of the Humancharger, I can read, walk around, and carry on conversations by speaker phone with no problems. I have recommended the Valkee for years, and now will highly recommend the Humancharger.For SAD - use first thing in the morning, every day. Be more consistent than with a SAD light, it's effect is more subtle. On really bleak days, I'll use between 12:00 and 3:00 PM for a pick me up.

Really Helps!
Worked for me. I used this on a trip to Australia shortly after I got it in September and it really helped me be productive both going and coming home. I travel internationally a lot and will not make another trip without this device! I do believe that a part of the value is the app that tells you WHEN you are supposed to be staying awake and when you are supposed to go to sleep based on your destination. I combine this with melatonin tablets to help me sleep at the right times and the combination is very effective. I won't say that it makes it "easy", but in the past when I went to the Far East, it would take a week before I'd be fully on local time. With this combination I adjusted in about three days.

Gives me energy
I like it so far. I have only used it a few times since I have recently gotten in it the mail. I was a little bit skeptical, but so far I have found it to give me a boost in the morning. Since I live in NYC and I am indoors most of the time. I use it when I can't go outside too often because of the job demands.I will continue to write about it. I test it out more regularly. It is the winter time, so I am sure I will use it more often. The 12 minutes go by really quickly.

So far so good
I use this for seasonal affective disorder and bought it in October. Whatever it does, I can tell already it works. This may sound a little strange but after I use it for the programmed 12 minute cycle on the way to work, and after my sense of smell is accentuated. Weird but seeing that smell and depression are linked I see this as a positive. Sturdy unit. Not had long enough to attest to durability. Mood definitely improved. Will update later in winter.

It works great, travelled for work 3 hour difference
It works great, travelled for work 3 hour difference, and didn't feel it it like I usually do, going west was always fine, but coming back east was always hard, getting back to waking up early, this made me feel like I was waking up at the same time, even though it was 3 hours earlier.

Jet Lag Headest? SAD Therapy Headset? Valkee Scam?
Just received device today and tried to register at www.usa.valkee.com, won't work.Found a lot of Valkee Scam on internet. In Amazon UK it says Bright Light Therapy Headset for Treating and Preventing Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) , different than Jet Lag Headset. Will try this device on next trip.
