I have SAD and I use a light box. I measured it with my gauss meter and it
is surprisingly low on emissions (in the 50-60Hz range). At the distance I
need to sit from it (18") the amount is just room ambient reading. Maybe
it's shielded. It has full spectrum bulbs and is Northern Lights brand. I
also take Vitamin D - 2000IU a day and it definitely helps but even with all
that I find the dark days somewhat oppressive.

PUK replies - the guass meter will not reveal the whole picture, many of
these light boxes are giving out a whole cacophany of RF due to the
flourescent light circuitry. You can get LED light boxes somewhere. Try an AM
radio in the same room as you and the light box ?
