The Up Light

Not a morning person? Neither are many of Steve Chang’s customers – until they try The Up Light, he says of the $49.99 product he founded in 2014. “The Up Light turns your lamp into a wake-up light that gently wakes you in the mornings, but also removes blue light at night so your body can produce the melatonin needed to help you fall asleep,” Chang explains. Grandner says The Up Light’s “simplicity and functionality” set it apart from Wi-Fi-based devices, which can be trickier to travel with. “It can be a tool to help you regularize, or to help you work with, your circadian rhythms,” Grandner says.
