Try getting the Uvex S1933X glasses. They work for everything in your view (obviously) without messing around with software, and probably works better too.
I have them, and they're amazing. I have pretty cool LED lighting in my apartment and can make my whole living room any color I want at night. If I set in to pure blue and put on the glasses, it's like being in pitch blackness (except a couple of items glow brightly).
It's not like looking at things with an orange tint at all, even though the glasses are obviously orange.
That being said - the benefits I get by using them is amazing. It's weird how much of a difference it can make, I get tired quickly after putting them on in the evening. If I forget to put them on I usually end up staying up too late, getting too little sleep and often ruining the next day. Personally I find it way more effective than flux.
By the way - blue light isn't just a negative thing, but also a huge positive. In the morning I use a Philips goLITE BLU HF3332, and it really improves both my energy and mood quickly after just a few minutes of usage.
Those two simple items, a blue light and a pair of blue-blocking glasses, have improved my life significantly. Try it out (especially the glasses, it's just $9).

- aroch 11y agoSounds like GP is using Phillips Hue or similar bulbs, which can be programmed (via a phone or computer) to automatically change colors by individual light or groups (i.e. the lights in your bedroom change to warm hues at night and cool hues prior to wakeup)
- kristofferR 11y agoIt's summer in Norway here so it doesn't really get dark before my bedtime tonight, but here are some really short videos from a party a couple of months ago: https://goo.gl/photos/PKyzv8HkCyVJSdzv7 https://goo.gl/photos/PKyzv8HkCyVJSdzv7 Normally I have it set to a static color or a very slow and smooth fade, not the crazyness seen in the vids. Here's blue, which is totally dark with the Uvex glasses: https://goo.gl/photos/SCrU1PhbDmCuPi22A https://goo.gl/photos/SCrU1PhbDmCuPi22A
- mistermann 11y agoI love that blue! So what's the cost for that type of a setup?
- kristofferR 11y agoProbably below 40$ for the whole shebang. It's this, just with an additional 5 m strip and a power adapter: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/10M-3528-RGB-LED-Strip-Waterproof-IP65-DC12V-60LEDs-M-SMD-Strips-Lighting-with-44-Keys/32311668753.html http://www.aliexpress.com/item/10M-3528-RGB-LED-Strip-Waterp...
- mistermann 11y agoWow, that's cheap. So the blueness in the entire room is emanating from the bright spots along the roof?
- justacat 11y agoI know there’s a variety of led lighting options out there, do you have any recommendations based on your experience?
- kristofferR 11y agoMy living room is circular, and came with an edge close to the roof that was perfect for placing a LED strip on top of. So I just bought 15 meters (5x3) and an IR remote. Something similar to this: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-shipping-5M-5050-Flexible-RBG-LED-Strip-60LEDs-M-White-Green-Blue-Yellow-Warm-White/32246563913.html http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Free-shipping-5M-5050-Flexibl... Works great and costs basically nothing.
