Casper Makes Fancy Nightlights Now
Casper, one of the leading online mattress sellers, is expanding beyond bedding with its first connected gadget. Called the Glow, the smartphone-controlled bedside light announced today joins the company’s lineup of mattresses, pillows, bed frames, and sheets. The device can operate on battery power and so is portable, which lets you use it as a flashlight of sorts when getting up in the middle of the night. It also charges using a wireless base station that sits plugged into your bedside table. The product is launching today through Casper’s website at $89 for one unit and $169 for a pair.
I think this is kinda cool, and the use of accelerometers to change the level of brightness/start a new “session" is clever - but the price feels a smidge high.
Set it at $60? I’d consider it.
