So I have my new Sirius...
...and have some observations and probably quite silly questions :rolleyes:
1. What exact sounds come from the machine? Might sound a bit odd, but I am certain that there is a pusling sound and possibly a solid tone over the top. However, sometimes I can also hear another tone (always on the right side) and I am interested to know whether it's actually 'there' or my brain generating it.
When I stop using the unit, I can always hear a low tone on the right and what actually sounds like very heavy rain from a distance on the left!
2. My frames claim they offer UV protection - is this actually accurate?
3. How long can the unit run off one set of batteries? Also, does it have any kind of auto shut-off? I use it just before going to bed (in bed) and worried that if I fell asleep I'd end up waking to find I'd wrecked the batteries :D
I had loads more but I've forgotten them all LOL

I'm not sure since I can't hear what you hear in your head! ;)
Certainly the tones will create auditory effects that appear to be coming from the machine but are not. They'll be different for each person and for different programs.

I don't think anyone would use these for sunglasses! :cool:

It should run for many hours on a set of batteries, and I believe it has an auto-off mode, but I'll check to be sure.

When you remember, ask away! ;)

Re: So I have my new Sirius...
Just to follow up...
The Sirius DOES NOT have an auto-off function so you should turn off the unit when you're finished using it to save the batteries.
The Proteus and Procyon do have an auto-off function.
