Summary: Nice Battery Pack makes this Highly Portable
Review: If you love to read in bed, then you know how difficult it is to read when you not facing away from the lamp/light. I'm a serious reader and I want to see the page when I'm in bed. I had purchased other book lights with batteries attached to the actual light unit and found that you could really only use them if you were sitting up in bed. I like to be snuggled down in the covers reading to my heart's content.

This has been the best solution I've found. So far after a few months, I've been very impressed with this light. You can also read in bed without disturbing your bed partner. When you turn off your bedside lamp, you can still see what you are reading.

The light clips to any back of a hard or soft cover book. It is super lightweight. The cord is also really long and you have the option of an outlet or battery pack which uses four "C" cell batteries. Of all the book lights out there, this one seems to be the most versatile. You can use it in bed, in a car, on a plane or even in a tent.

This item also features a "thermal fuse" that will automatically turn off the lamp if it reaches between 120 -130 degrees. This is a useful feature if you fall asleep while reading and if blankets or sheets cover the light and it overheats, it will turn off automatically.

This light was a winner of three international design awards and is the only book light that is ETL approved. It has a heavy gauge wire and a failsafe rotary switch to give you years of use. Of course they recommend that you turn off the light before going to sleep, but it made me feel a bit safer since I've been known to fall asleep when reading at night.

Replacement bulbs are available in 2-bulb packs and if you can't find them, you can use their mail order option. There is also an option of ordering a compact pouch to keep the light safe while traveling.

What I really like about this light is how the light really can be adjusted to any angle. Need light focuses on a certain part of the page? No problem. Move the arm back and forth or rotate the light left or right to position the brightest light possible on the page you are reading.

Nifty Packaging, you can store your light on the shelf with your favorite books!

If you find your light dimming, change the bulb. They
do darken and look silver after a bit of use. This
seems normal. ....
