Key Features
Enjoy a better, healthier sleep thanks to a room of complete darkness. The absence of in light in your room tells your body that it is time to sleep. Light at the wrong times, like in the middle of the night or when you are in your deepest sleep, can alter your sleep clock and confuse your brain. There’s none of that happening with this blind.
While it might make waking up for work a bit harder, you’ll just have to go to sleep a bit earlier. Thanks to the complete darkness of your room, you will now sleep longer. No more will you wake up as the sun does.
Along with a longer, less disturbed sleep comes feeling better in the morning. Wake up feeling groggy or with a brain fog regularly? You haven’t slept well enough or long enough. Wake up feeling at peace and well-rested from now on.
Worried about ruing your sleep pattern while on a work trip or away on holiday? That’s where the “portable” part of the “portable window blind” comes in. Just easily pack up the blind into its bag, bring it along with you anywhere and simply install it where you are sleeping.
Drawbacks
- There is really only one drawback for this product that, while a tiny issue, is a big one for the people it affects. My Blackout’s Portable Window Blind is designed with the standard Australian window in mind. The Portable Window Blind is compatible with any width window up to 121cm. If you are lucky enough to own a window larger than that, this product won’t work on that window.
Our Final Opinion on this Gadget
The product is exactly what it says it is. A portable blackout blind that will block out 100% of the light shining through a standard Australian window. Anyone who has slept, meaning all of us, knows the importance of having a dark room when going to sleep. A dark room is especially important if you are looking to start sleeping earlier.
Darkness is your body’s sign to sleep. So, if there is a light on until midnight, it will think it needs to stay awake until then. If your room is dark at 10pm, it will know it’s time to sleep. A gadget that provides a longer, more peaceful, healthier sleep no matter where you are. Who doesn’t want that?
FAQ
Yes! A completely dark room lets your body know that it is time to sleep earlier, removes the distraction of light during the night leaving your sleep undisturbed, and allows you to sleep until you need to wake up rather than when the light wakes you up.
Yes! In the hot summer months, blackout blinds can be a lifesaver. Thanks to the fact they keep the sunlight out, they do keep the room from becoming as hot as it could be. The more sun the blinds block out, the cooler the room will be.
Kind of. Because they are black, the blinds hold onto the heat rather than dispersing it as a lighter blind would. However, they also block the sunlight from entering the room, which would also make the room hotter. So, while they do, it’s better to have them than to not have them.
