Precision Engineering
The Chroma Sky Portal Mini is a travel-ready circadian light designed to optimize your biology anywhere life takes you. It delivers high-output, opsin-targeted light in a compact, ultra-portable form, pairing all-day circadian alignment with the freedom to throw it in a backpack and go.
Its custom White channel is built for stimulation without strain, removing the 430–460nm blue hazard while boosting the beneficial violet and sky blue wavelengths that activate OPN3, OPN4, and OPN5. The Deep Amber channel delivers a low-melanopic, warm 1300K glow with boosted 660nm Deep Red helps you wind down at night without disrupting melatonin production. Adjustable ratios let you blend the channels for the exact effect your biology is looking for.
A true flicker-free design ensures smooth, constant output at any brightness, protecting visual comfort and nervous system stability. The integrated 8,000mAh battery powers over 2 hours of full-intensity light and doubles as a portable power bank for your other devices.
Whether you’re working in a dim hotel room, catching a red-eye flight, or setting up a mobile workspace in a café, the Sky Portal Mini ensures your light environment is always as refined and biologically aligned as your lifestyle demands.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use my Sky Portal Mini?
For daytime use, set the Sky Portal Mini to maximum brightness and dial it all the way to daytime white while the sun is still up. This invigorating light is engineered to stimulate OPN3, OPN4, and OPN5 - non-visual photoreceptors that help boost alertness, focus, and mood.
As the sun begins to set, gradually shift the settings toward a deeper amber tone, ending with pure deep amber and boosted 660nm deep red. This transition mimics the sun’s natural progression, helping your body wind down, increase melatonin production, and prepare for restorative sleep.
After dark, DO NOT use the highly stimulating white channel, instead set the device to 100% Deep Amber and dim to a level that is comfortable.
It also doubles as a portable power bank to keep your other devices charged on the go.
How long will it take to see results?
Many people feel the effects of the Sky Portal Mini immediately - especially in terms of energy, alertness, and mood. OPN4 (melanopsin) stimulation can begin shifting your circadian rhythm within the first few sessions, helping you feel more awake during the day and more naturally ready for sleep at night.
For those using it to combat seasonal dips in mood or focus, consistent daily use for 1–2 weeks is often enough to notice a significant lift. Longer-term benefits, like improved sleep quality and steadier daytime energy, build as your body adapts to a healthier light environment. The key is consistency - your biology responds best when it receives the right light cues every day.
Can I use the Sky Portal Mini at night?
Yes, but ONLY use the device set to 100% Deep Amber as the white channel is highly stimulating and will disrupt sleep if used after dark.
Why would I choose the Sky Portal Mini over the Sky Portal 2.1?
The Sky Portal Mini is made for travel, flexibility, and tight spaces. It gives you the same powerful circadian-supporting light as the full-size Sky Portal 2.1, but in a compact, portable form you can take anywhere. Use it in hotel rooms, at your desk, in your kitchen—anywhere you need better light but can’t set up a full rig. If you want full-room immersion at home, go with the 2.1, but if you need something to keep you aligned on the go, the Mini is the clear choice.
Why does Opsin simulating light promote a natural circadian rhythm?
Cyan to Violet wavelengths of light stimulate opsin containing cells, which act as the main wakefulness/sleepiness controllers. These are the key wavelengths and photoreceptor pathways that when stimulated, promote alertness and circadian rhythm regularity.(Study)
The Sky Portal uniquely promotes circadian and mental health through opsin stimulation balanced with deep red light.
Is this just a high powered SAD lamp?
The Sky Portal Mini is far more than a S.A.D. light. It is a portal connecting the interior of a building to a natural outdoor setting.
The idea that S.A.D. is a condition that only affects a small segment of the population is misleading. Nearly all people feel and perform worse in poor light environments where their circadian rhythm is disrupted, we only give it a special name when these normal reactions cross a somewhat arbitrary threshold. Better light leads to a better life. We've custom tuned the white LEDs in this device to have no cyan gap and offer excellent opsin stimulation, we then balanced that stimulating white with a powerful and relaxing Deep Amber channel.

How long will it take to get my order?
It depends on where you are. Orders processed here will take 5-7 business days to arrive. Overseas deliveries can take anywhere from 7-16 days. Delivery details will be provided in your confirmation email.
Can I use my Sky Portal worldwide?
Yes! The Sky Portal Mini is compatible with both 110/120V and 220/240V (adapter not included).
Can I take the Sky Portal Mini on a plane?
Yes. The Sky Portal Mini is safe to bring on a plane, but make sure to pack it in your carry-on, not your checked luggage. Since it contains a built-in battery (and doubles as a power bank), it needs to stay with you during the flight. Just toss it in your bag and enjoy better light wherever you land.
Side note: It is also fantastic for jet lag so you'll want access to it at all times either way.
Is there support if I have questions?
Yes. Our team is always here for you. Whether it's setup help, usage tips, or deeper questions about red light therapy, we’re ready to support your recovery goals.
Simply contact us at hello@getchroma.co and we will respond within 24 hours.
