I bought 2 Libre Pro's in Dec., 2010. They are both going strong - if battery time has lessened, it isn't obvious. My husband read his for hours every day from the time of purchase - about mid-Dec, 2010 until he died last Oct. (22 mos.). I just checked my list of books he read and it numbers 602. There were probably 50 books before I started keeping a list for him, and probably another 50-60 that were ordered from the library. So I figure somewhere between 700-750 books.
I have also purchased a Nook Glow for myself and am extremely pleased with glowlight. So much better than any book-light I ever tried. But I carry the Libre when I'm out and about as I feel it has already paid for itself and if it is ever broken or lost, I can't complain.
