Alven FAQ
About
Alven delivers the same Biocentric lighting performance as our customized solutions, just in a free-standing form. So instead of installing an entire Biocentric lighting system in a room, you can assemble and plug in Alven on your own and immediately receive the benefits of Biocentric lighting.
Biocentric lighting provides many benefits for individuals, freelancers and large organizations in various industries. Alven can also be a multi-user system by creating accounts and downloading the BrainLit app.
Alven on wheels has the same functionality and appearance as Alven, with added wheels on the foot. The wheels make it easier to move Alven, which is suitable for environments where the interiors change often, or when several users want to use the light.
Use
Download our Quick Guide for installation instructions.
BrainLit Alven is easy to use. Download our User Manual for all the information you need, or watch the How to Use video.
You should position the Alven so that the light falls comfortably into your eyes. To avoid discomfort, do not look directly into the light. We recommend that you use the AutoLit recipe as a standard. For more examples, please see our Alven Placement Guide.
App
Once you have downloaded the BrainLit app, you will be asked to create an account.
Please follow the instructions in the BrainLit app to reset your username or password.
You do not have to create an account to use Alven, but you will lose many benefits if you do not use the BrainLit app and create an account. Among other benefits, the app and account allow you to:
- Control the light from the app via bluetooth
- Control the light from the app via Wi-Fi remotely, even without bluetooth coverage
- Get future software updates for the functionality of your Alven including light recipe updates
