“It's cordless and you can actually wear it in public! Most red light hats are very strange looking.”
“Excellent customer service. Had a connector come loose. Sent them a photo and they sent a new one asap.”
“I purchased the red light cap a few weeks ago and have used it every day since. It is the 1st thing I do each morning while making coffee.”
