Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is the LiBa-magnify battery powered?The LiBa-magnify comes equipped with a 2600mAh battery integrated within its design. The battery life may vary between 4-6 hours, depending on the brightness level and settings you choose to operate the device on.
-
How many watts have the LiBa-magnify LEDs?Many people believe that the watt power of a hypnagogic light is crucial. However, through rigorous testing and prototyping, we have discovered that LED selection is not solely based on power. An appropriate LED for this purpose can switch on and off rapidly while maintaining the correct colour temperature. High-power LEDs are often too sluggish, resulting in an imprecise flicker frequency. The original LiBa-slim model had a 12W LED power output. The LiBa-magnify, the second-generation LiBa light, has a 3W LED power output. Despite having only a quarter of the power, we have created a significantly improved product by selecting the right LEDs and utilizing proper lens technology. The LiBa-magnify utilizes its available power incredibly efficiently and is just as effective as other leading brands on the market.
-
How many session programs has the LiBa-magnify?The LiBa-magnify provides five frequency tables, which sets it apart from other devices in the market that work on fixed-session programs. The LiBa-magnify algorithm uses these frequency tables to generate a new session program each time the device is used. Therefore, there are practically infinite session programs stored within the device, and no two will be the same.
-
Do I need a tripod for the LiBa-magnify?To fully relax during a session with the LiBa-magnify, it's important to securely fix the device in position. Luckily, the LiBa-magnify is equipped with a 1/4" camera fitting, which can be attached to nearly all camera tripods available. You can choose the tripod system that works best for you.

How does the light feel like?During a session with the LiBa-magnify, it is common to experience a variety of physical and mental reactions. One of the most notable physical reactions is a feeling of weightlessness, which can be a result of deep relaxation. Additionally, some people may experience a tickling sensation in their legs and lower torso, as well as a slight numb feeling over the forehead. The most obvious effects of the LiBa-magnify are the beautiful colours and patterns that emerge behind your eyelids. It's worth noting that the lamp solely emits white light, and the patterns and colours are entirely created in your brain. As our brains are perfectly capable of translating lose visual information into faces, landscapes, and other real-world objects, the patterns often merge into dreamlike imagery and visions. Although the visual sensations are perceived differently from person to person, they are often described as friendly and beautiful. These sensations can create a truly immersive experience, allowing you to escape into your own personal world of relaxation and meditation. We believe that the LiBa-magnify offers a unique and unparalleled experience that can help you achieve a deep state of relaxation and tranquility.
-
Can multiple people enjoy the LiBa-magnify simultaneously?The LiBa-magnify is designed to provide an immersive and personalized experience to the user, which is why it bundles the light to a narrow light cone. This helps to focus the light on the user's closed eyes, creating a more intense and concentrated visual stimulation. While it is possible for two users to use the light simultaneously, it is recommended to use the light individually for the best experience. Using the light individually allows for a more customized session tailored to each user's specific needs and preferences. This can help to enhance the overall experience and increase the effectiveness of the visual entrainment process. When two people use the light at the same time, there is a possibility that the light might not be focused on both individuals equally, which could lead to a less than optimal experience for both users. In an event setting, such as a group meditation or relaxation session, we always provide one device per person. This ensures that each individual can fully immerse themselves in the experience without any distractions or interruptions from others. We believe that providing one device per person is the best way to ensure that everyone gets the most out of their visual entrainment session.

How does visual brain entrainment work?Visual entrainment works by using a rhythmic visual stimulus, such as flashing lights, to stimulate specific brainwave frequencies. When the eyes are exposed to a rhythmic visual stimulus, the brain synchronizes to the frequency of the stimulus, which can help to regulate brainwave activity. Different frequencies of visual stimulation can have different effects on brainwave activity. For example, a frequency of around 10 Hz is associated with alpha waves, which are associated with a relaxed, meditative state, while a frequency of around 40 Hz is associated with gamma waves, which are associated with focused attention and cognitive processing. The individual undergoing visual entrainment will typically sit in a quiet, dark room and watch the flashing lights for a predetermined amount of time, which can range from several minutes to an hour or more. Visual entrainment can potentially be used to regulate brainwave activity and promote relaxation, focus, and other desired states of mind. However, the research on visual entrainment is still in its early stages, and more studies are needed to fully understand its effects and potential therapeutic applications.
-
Is visual entrainment addictive?There is no evidence to suggest that visual entrainment is addictive. Visual entrainment is a technique that uses flashing lights to stimulate the brain and induce various states of consciousness, such as relaxation or increased focus. While some people may find the experience enjoyable and choose to use it regularly, it is not considered an addictive behaviour. However, as with any practice that alters brain function, it is important to use visual entrainment responsibly and in accordance with professional guidance, particularly for individuals with a history of epilepsy or other neurological conditions.
