Moonlight Pillow Promises Subtle, Legal Tripping
A head-friendly gadget that doubles as mood lighting
All set with that ultra-minimalist (some might say boring) living room setup? Add some visual spice to the space and pay for the Moonlight Cushion. Illuminated by low-energy LEDs, and featuring–hopefully fake–fur that's as soft as a baby's bottom, the Moonlight Cushion is a head-friendly gadget designed to provide "mood lighting". Why settle for a constant monochromatic glow?
Colors cycle like those multi-hued nebulas you see in popular sci-fi franchises, and simple taps to the middle of the pillow controlling the lighting. Retailer thumbsUp also characterizes the Moonlight as the perfect nightlight for kids, making it perfect for those lonely nights. The whole setup requires only 3 triple-A batteries hidden away in a zip-up compartment; at 350 grams, the Moonlight shouldn't be heavier than your typical couch pillow.
The price is a reasonable $37. Unfortunately thumbsUp requires a minimum purchase of 6 pieces. Though it might be worth paying over $200 for set, if only to see your guests losing themselves in that psychedelic coloring.

First?
I'm not sure a psychedelic pillow is in my list of things to buy this year.
psychedelic? late 1960's? No thank you! I might suffer a relapse
I was expecting an explanation on how this was going to make me "trip".
I am not pleased.
Sounds more like an ad than an article.

how about mood pillow?
shows different color depending on how deep you're asleep?
$37 is not a bad deal
@icepick314: so if a pillow glows, but you are asleep and cannot see it then did it really emit any light?
An epileptic fit is not "TRIPPING"...
That's a really bad photoshop job on those pictures.
I must say when I was younger, I would've loved these, and so would've most of my friends lol.
lonely nights??? these pillows will scare me!

I'm sure the ninjas that infest my apartment would love that.
Darn ninjas, always trying to get me.

Are you sure you're not a pirate?
If they're lit then they'd be harder to trip on than normal pillows, which can hide on the floor if you don't want to turn the light on for whatever reason (if you leave them on the floor next to your bed for some reason)
If it's got a light in it, surely it'd be harder to trip on than a normal pillow? If you're getting up in the night, a lit obstacle course to the loo would be easier than trying to remember where things fell.
3.5 Bunnies died to make each of those pillows.
"Illuminated by low-energy LEDs"
I have never been a fan of LEDs in a home. They are extremely unpleasant and unnatural to look at. The light they give off is very.... synthetic, for lack of a better word.
Looks like a monster from the 1st Star Trek!
Does it come with a matching bong?
I don't think that I'd be able to even get to sleep using it, i.e. the light would keep me up.
Does it come with a complimentary hit of LSD? Or do you have to furnish your own??
Hopefully fake fur? I can't recall any furry animals that are mostly see through and are capable of emitting light...so yeah...I'm going to go with synthetic on this one.

Sounds like a awesome movie night.
