I have a couple of coworkers who use SAD Lights (SAD = seasonal affective disorder, aka the winter blues) and say it has helped give them more energy. Anybody use one before? Did it work? Which one did you use? White light versus blue light?

Looking at these two models:

The short days never really bothered me until 5 years ago when I started working; I now have an inside office so I'm getting even less natural light than before. Taking vitamin D supplements but I'm not sure it's making much difference
