I too have a SAD lamp. I find it helps energize me and keep me awake. I use it first thing in the morning and when I get home from work.
Personally I don't start using it until the autumn equinox and stop using it at the spring equinox, but that is because at the height of summer the sun rises at 5 AM it is still sunny at 10 PM. Of course the other side of things the sun doesn't rise till the middle of the morning and it sets mid-afternoon.
I use the LiteBookElite, though I have, perhaps deliberately, forgotten the cost of it.
