I saw it in your thread.
I just do not like CR2032.
I know I can buy a bunch and consider it as one time usage stuff but I hate to generate so many electric garbage when I try to use eink to save some tree.
If I want to replace the battery the problem will be cost then.
So the light must can works with rechargeable battery.

The two-headed version of Mighty Bright's XtraFlex 2 is especially good for the DX. You can spread the two lights apart to get good coverage. I got mine at Beds, Bath and Beyond.

It looks like the Mighty Brite booklight is for the 6" screen. Anyone find a good booklight for the Kindle DX 9.7"?

Book light for 9.7" Kindle DX?

Three low-cost AAA (you can buy rechargeable) batteries, long lasting, strong LEDs, quite a uniform lighting.

What else can I say? For me, it just works!

But is there a book light that's the right size for the 9.7" Kindle DX? This one seems to fit the 6" screen.

(I'm new to the forums and to the Kindle, so I've been grateful for all the advice posted here.)

Yes, probably a good one for the larger DX. Thanks for pointing it out.
