Anyone else enjoy the comfortlight PRO feature?

Pumpernickel · 11-01-2019, 02:23 PM

I just got a Clara HD and I can't believe how much I enjoy the comfortlight option. I heard reports of uneven lighting but the lighting on mine is even, and really pleasant to use. I find myself using comfortlight even in the day, because it's just easier on the eyes. When I read at night, it doesn't hurt my eyes.

Anyone else?

Yep. I didn't think I would, but it's nice in a dim room. I don't use it in broad daylight.

I love it, too! I wake up once or twice during the night, then I read a little and go back to sleep. Before the comfort light, I never dared to turn on my reader or the lamp on my nightstand because I knew I'd never go back to sleep if I do, but now I can read till my eyes fall shut again, which only takes a couple of page turns.

Well, these are the joys of old age.

I usually set the light toward the blue end of the scale in the daytime and just to the right of the middle at night. I don't like it set all the way to orange.

I read nearly 100% of the time in inverted mode, but even there I have the comfort light set to around 30%.

I don't have a Kobo Clara or ComfortLight Pro, but I think the Tolino 4 HD's smartLight is basically the same thing. I like it a lot too and find I'm almost always using the warmer side of the lighting — even during the day (inside). If I was reading outside it might be different.

I change the light very often and I use comfort light (and also change it very often), in Kobo Aura One if the setting is completely on the warm side it is almost red; so I use it but In don't "warm" the light too much.

lightbulbjim · 11-04-2019, 04:24 AM

Yes. The only thing I would change is adding the ability to set the minimum level. I would like to set it to 1% for quick brightness changes in the dark.

bonnerable · 11-08-2019, 01:33 PM

Yes! Orange light is love love love <3<3<3

Comfort light is fantastic…

Even more fantastic is sliding your finger on the left side of the screen to adjust the brightness anywhere at any time

Quoth · 11-08-2019, 02:34 PM

Also being able to turn off that method to change brightness is good!

Indeed. Options are very good.
That’s definitely a strength of Kobo
