The Theralite has a clever design, but not enough features to blow us away. This lightweight and compact light box has a 5- by 8-inch light panel, plus a built-in cover and stand, which makes it good for traveling. However, it is considerably thicker than the other lamps on this list. It has one brightness setting — 10,000 lux — and a simple on-off switch. We like that you can adjust the angle of the stand, change the height of the light and rotate the light between portrait and landscape orientations.

It’s not the best compact therapy light in our book, and we’re not convinced that this is the best travel light either. We’d rather make room in our bags for the Verilux HappyLight or the Lumos, since it can be folded and rotated to make it thin and compact.
