I’m a sleep tech writer and I’ve rounded up five deals in today’s Presidents’ Day sales to help you get better sleep. Like the Philips Sleep Headphones for $216 at Kokoon (was $270.) That’s a great discount on the world’s thinnest ear buds designed for sleep comfort.

Sleeping on the best mattress for your sleep style and body type is the foundation to comfortable sleep, night after night. However, investing in the latest gadgets can help elevate your sleep further.

From wearable tech that helps you understand your sleep better, to smart alarm clocks that help you wake up easier, I've spent the last six months researching, testing and reviewing the best sleep tech available to buy now. These are the gadgets I'd snap up in today’s Presidents' Day sleep sales.

3. Philips Sleep Headphones with Kokoon: was $270 $183.60 at Kokoon
While some people require total silence to sleep, others prefer to drift off to some soothing sounds. Be it a sleep meditation soundtrack, binaural beats or a relaxing symphony (research shows listening to music at night can improve the quality of your sleep). These Philips Sleep Headphones with Kokoon feature thin earbuds designed to sit comfortably in your ears all night long, and come with five tip sizes. The design hooks over your ears and includes a compact control panel. They have an audio fade-out feature and advanced noise masking technology, which aims to help you fall asleep fast and sleep through the night. You can bag a generous saving now. There's 20% off and you can use the code REST at checkout for an extra 10% off (bringing the price to $194.40) or you can sign up to Philips for an extra 15% off your first order (which means you'll pay $183.60). That means you could save as much as $86.
