Your post reminds me that I bought one such usb led light 5 years ago. Too bad it doesn't work on iLiad (no light). And it shakes as I move iLiad. Besides, I am afraid that its weight will damage the USB socket.

I've got something very similar, except mine isn't USB based. It has it's own internal battery, so isn't drawing power from the iLiad. It works fairly well, but I don't need to read in the dark very often so I don't use it a lot.

What do you think?
I hope you do know that you are draining the battery even faster.

How many hours battery time will be lost if you use it?

Seeing as you get 12-15 hours without the light, I'd say too much time.

The USB LED light that I bought 5 years ago still works on iLiad. It is quite helpful when I am sitting in car at night. I guess the power drainage will be three times faster. Still I think it worthwhile.
