Results from the first few months since an innovative phone charger went on sale show not only healthy sales, but also feedback from customers that the quality of their sleep has improved.
A survey on behalf of Angel Electronics, the firm behind Sleep Halo™, resulted in 89% of respondents saying they slept better since starting to use the inductive loop wireless phone charger.
The simple yet effective product incorporates electromagnetic field shielding that means the mobile phone continues to operate normally, but the associated radiation is deflected away from the bed. It works with any phone as either a wireless charger with radiation protection, or, where a phone does not have wireless charging capability, it is safe to use as a radiation screen with the phone plugged in to its own charging cable. Independent tests have shown that Sleep Halo™ reduces radiation by up to 93% and it carries the requisite CE mark for a consumer electronics device.
Its inventor, David Clark, founder of Angel Electronics, began looking for answers when his wife, who had been suffering from night-time migraines, found moving both couple’s mobile phones well away from the bed helped relieve her symptoms. Working to find a solution that improved his wife’s health, while at the same time enabling the phones to be by the bedside, led David to create Sleep Halo™, which was launched in February at Angel Electronics’ Silverstone Technology Park headquarters in Northamptonshire.
David has an excellent track record in the development of ground-breaking products. He was the driving force behind Road Angel, one of the first companies to roll out GPS Speed Camera Locators and the first company to launch a connected sat nav system when the technology was in its early days at the beginning of the 21st Century.
David said:
Every business idea I’ve had has been prompted by a need for something in my life. When my wife found relief from her headaches by moving her phone away from the bed, that was great news. But like most people, we like to have our phones close to us – we want to know we’re contactable if there’s an emergency in the middle of the night, we set alarms, we check them first thing in the morning – so I set about working on what we could do.
“We have been delighted with the success of Sleep Halo™ and are increasingly excited about its global potential,”
said David.
The mobile phone market is huge, of course, and this is a product that has a dual purpose as it will work with any phone on the market whilst shielding you from radiation as you sleep.
“The results of the survey gave us a pleasant surprise when so many of the respondents also reported that they were getting a better night’s sleep since starting to use the product, too.”
Sleep Halo™ retails at £39.99, or £69.99 for a twin pack, and is available from the Angel Electronics website or via Amazon.
Having been developed at Silverstone, the Sleep Halo™ is manufactured in High Wycombe, in keeping with David’s determination to maintain British design and manufacturing.
