There is what Casper calls that ‘Pause’ feature which lets you hold the dimming at whatever point in the cycle is at. I love the soft glow of these lamps, but they don’t seem to make effective bedside lamps, and that’s primarily because they’re constantly slowly turning off. Stay tuned for a sec for how to pause the light. You can use the pause feature of the light to keep it on… you just need to remember to do it. You can set the auto off after you wake feature to between 10 and 30 mins. So if you’re the type who needs a push to get up, this one might just lull you back to sleep. At some point it’s set to begin dimming again. You can choose how long your Casper Glow should it stay on at wake, but unfortunately, it won’t stay on. UPDATE: July 2019: Casper has now added the ability to adjust the days of the week the alarm is set for, but it still doesn’t allow you to set a second alarm. Or you’ll need to remember to manually turn it on and off over the weekend, say. While you can choose the time your light will come on, and you can set different lamps to come on at different times, you can’t choose the days of the week you want the light to turn on. You can set how long it takes to come on and at what time, but there are a few flaws for me with this part of the app. You can use Casper Glow to wake you with light that brightens like a gentle sunrise. Using Casper Glow to wake up: missing features

Go into your control panel in the app (the sliders on the bottom right) then use the Dimming Time and Overall Brightness controls to make the adjustments. Not ideal.įortunately, you can change this in the app….

So if you want it at 50% brightness, you’re dimming time is cut in half. The only thing is, that if you’re doing this without the app, it automatically shortens the dim time.

You can adjust the brightness by swiveling the light like a dimmer.

I’d turn it on at night you do this by turning it over on it’s end, essentially flipping it upside down. While you can use and control Casper Glow on the lamp itself, you can also get more control via the Casper Glow app. While blue light has been shown to stimulate our brains, warmer light does the opposite. Warmer coloured light, in this case with a slight orange hue can be relaxing think candlelight, a nice cracking fire or soft incandescent bulbs. Casper Glow uses warm white light to lull you to sleep or to wake you more softly.
