How to use your Lichtblock® Uno

Application examples

Use of the power light (COB chip in the center)

Switch on both switches (COB + LED)

Dosing

Ideally, simply adhere to our distance and time specifications.

	Use this area locally for 10 minutes for a specific area.
	Use this area for 10 minutes for a larger area.
	Use this area for about 20 minutes for the whole body.

It is not bad to exceed these times, but the effect remains the same.

Breaks

After the power light mode, wait about 24 hours before irradiating the same area with power light.

Tips

Especially at the beginning, we recommend halving the duration to get your body used to the red light.

Ideally, the power light should be used during the day, between sunrise and sunset, and at least 2 hours before going to bed.

Using the ambient light (outer ring)

Only switch on the outer ring (LED)

The ambient light is ideally used after sunset as a replacement for conventional lighting to prepare you for the night.

However, you can also use it during the day to create a balanced mix of light. You can leave the light on as often and as long as you like. Especially as atmospheric evening lighting the ambient light is super relaxing!

Frequently asked questions about the application

Why do some LEDs not light up?

The wavelengths of the light block are 630 nm, 660 nm and 850 nm. Wavelengths in the 850 nm range are not visible to the human eye. The body nevertheless perceives the light.

Can I keep my eyes open while the device is switched on?

If you hold the lamp to your face, we recommend that you use the safety goggles as described in the instructions. As a general rule, you should never look directly into the light of the red light lamp, just as it is not recommended to look directly into the sun.

Is the red light coming through my clothing?

Unfortunately, no. There is only a chance of achieving an effect if your clothing is translucent.

Can I use the Lichtblock get a sunburn?

No. Sunburn is caused by UV radiation that is not contained in the light spectrum of the light block.

Do I produce sunburn through the Lichtblock vitamin D?

No. Vitamin D is produced with the help of the ultraviolet (UV) part of solar radiation (280-315 nm).

Do I no longer need to go out in the sun?

Lichtblock A red light lamp offers you a compromise, but it doesn't come close to sunlight. To support your sleeping and waking rhythm and your general health in the best possible way, you should ideally spend as much time as possible in natural sunlight during the day. In addition to effects such as vitamin D production in the skin, which is stimulated by the sun's UV rays (especially in summer), the sun's light also has a direct influence on your body's internal clock. Therefore, if possible, you should go outside as soon as the sun rises in the morning and avoid artificial light in the evening.
