These guys own a private company, and have incredible attention to detail when it comes to their shades. They are certainly the best.

@tungsten_smooth (Only a year late.)

No. The amount of blue light is that available from the sun/field-lights. The field isn't glowing, adding extra light. The colour of the ground won't change the amount of blue entering your eyes. (Unless it's very white or very dark.) Green or blue of roughly the same brightness shouldn't make any difference.

@jamesc18 Replying eighteen months late, but for the sake of anyone else who stumbles across this...

I change the longitude in f.lux's location setting to a location which matches the time of day I'm actually awake. Then I can set the "earliest wake time" to the actual clock-time I want. Fiddly, but IMO it's better than trying to change your computer clock just for f.lux, and works better than trying to juggle other settlings.

(Note, it's 15 degrees of longitude for every hour. West for later, East for earlier. So if your shift is midnight to 8am, and you want to get up just before work, so you're going to bed at, say, 3 or 4pm; then you want to set you longitude around 120 degrees East of your actual location. Ie, LA is 118deg W, so if you live there you'd want to set location to 2deg East. London is zero degrees, so Londoners would set their location to 120deg East. Sydney is 151 deg East, so there you'd set your location to 89deg West. Then set your earliest wake-up to 11pm or whenever you get up.)

This method also makes it easier if your shift rotates. Work out the longitudes that correspond to each shift, just once, and write them down, then adjust as you need. (You might even get clever and use smaller adjustments during the week before your next shift-change to help you start adjusting in advance.)

A cheaper option than 3M safety glasses are anti-laser glasses from eBay. Red ones (for blue-laser) are also sold as "dental-laser safety glasses". Because of what they are used for, they are very clean, very deep filters. (Although I wouldn't trust them for actual laser work.)

I got a pair of reds for about $2 plus postage. They can be worn over glasses, but aren't clip-on. Red might be too extreme for tablet reading (I use mine for circadian manipulation), but you can get $2-3 yellow or orange glasses on eBay too.

That's why I now use Flux + Night Shift 24/7. And I now also turn off all my devices hours before sleeping. Yes, it's hard and we all have work deadlines, but if you don't have eyes you cannot work! So...Just wake up earlier and get more or the same amount of work done. Also take more eye breaks where you are looking into nature and sun gazing. Do eye exercises as well. Google eye exercise. Your eyes have muscles too and should be kept in good shape just like any other muscles. This is no joke people. If you have kids enforce strict usage and always cut the blue light. And don't get me started about the 5G that's rolling out.

@in_gene

in my 800k I dont see green:

800k is fine, but before bad time best mode is black mode ;)

Well the main difference is in how much room lighting is filtered. So if you have bright room lighting and can't adjust it (like at the office) you might wear glasses for that.

If you're worried about backlight leakage through "black" pixels, well, I wouldn't worry at all - the amounts of light are so small that they don't have an effect, when compared to anything that's not black.

@racijr said in In Game F.lux is much brighter than in windows or browser screen, how to set it to the same brightness.:

Oh, thats so bad, but still it's brighter even in window or borderless tested on hearthstone and minecraft

Brighter, or 6500K? Which?

f.lux is very good at blocking light like this, but we do not think there is anything to worry about from this study. Light from screens is just too dim.

A blue sky (not the sun, only the blue part) makes 20 times as much light as a screen, and it occupies a lot more of the visual field. And it is likely the study used a lot more light than this.

The published article does not measure irradiance at the eye - it uses lasers that are explained using "power" and not "power/area", so for now we are assuming these results are a new mechanism (which is important) but that it falls in the existing hazard range, so we don't worry about it, because it's a ton of light.

The "blue light hazard" has been identified for many years and incorporated into international standards, and every LED is regulated by these, but typically these hazards happen at >10,000 cd/m2 for white light, as opposed to 200 cd/m2 for a typical display screen.

I didn't know about darkroom mode as well! Hidden treasure.

I found that I could use Crtl+Alt+I which inverts the colors on my screen on windows.

What are you gonna do? Twiddle your thumbs and meditate? I mean, really. Who sits in total darkness for an hour before bed? Not me! Would you ever d that? lol

Yes meditate, listen to podcasts/radio/music, Alexander technique, self massage, generally unwind before bed. It helps you to relax and not be so uptight and controlling.............LOL.

But do you think this alarm would be inconvenient in a crowded place?
