Rare electro Posted May 17, 2018 #1 Share Posted May 17, 2018 Anyone use a sunrise alarm clock to wake up to light in an inside cabin. I don't usually get inside cabins because the lack of natural like messes with my sleep patterns. I'd like to get an inside on my next cruise and use a sunrise alarm clock to deal with the lack of light. Has anyone done this? How did it work? https://www.walmart.com/ip/Philips-Wake-Up-Light-Therapy-with-Sunrise-Simulation-Alarm-Clock-and-Sunset-Fading-Night-Light-White-HF3510-60/25174467?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&adid=22222222222018282050&wmlspartner=wmtlabs&wl0=e&wl1=o&wl2=c&wl3=74972999343540&wl4=pla-4578572581637271&wl12=25174467_0&wl14=sunlight%20alarm%20clock&veh=sem&msclkid=b76dcec408fd175314229439da67447e Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted May 17, 2018 #2 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I know people leave the tv on and tuned to the bridge cam. This will lighten the cabin when the sun rises. Might not work in very heavy clouds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no1racefan1 Posted May 17, 2018 #4 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I love my sunrise alarm clock at home but I wouldn't want to haul it around in my luggage. It's sort of large and I'd worry about breaking it. If you already have one and you aren't worried about that, I'd think it would be the perfect solution to what you are looking for.

You are right, it is quite large. I might see if i can find a smaller, cheaper one. I would definately bring it in my carry on, not checked luggage. I wonder if i would have any hassle bringing it o the ship. Lois Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rubytue Posted May 19, 2018 #7 Share Posted May 19, 2018 Why not use a night light or 2 if you prefer ? Because that defeats the purpose of a light that gradually increases in the morning to wake you up. A night light stays on all night. I have one of the clocks at home. I *love* it, especially during the winter. I have a real hard time waking up early, and in December, we don't get sunrise until about 8am - long after I should be motivated to get to work. I think it would be really good for an inside room. Don't know if I would take it with me, because it is big and pretty heavy. But I also wouldn't book an inside because I know I need the natural light too much - so not sure how useful my advice is :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
