Please. Could you explain how on the earth it is difficult to position the light so it is not above the screen to avoid the blasted glare? (I am genuinely curious!)
Maybe Kindle version is very different from the one I provided the link for?

My lamp has a long and very flexible neck so it is very easy to position it just on the side of the screen and under the right angle so I get even coverage. I must confess I use it on its maximum light setting only. As result, I can position it far enough from the screen and I have zero glare. Some people might remember me when I was choosing my first light almost 4 years ago. We didn't have super bright LEDs back then. I am very choosy and over sensitive to the glare. The only light that had bright enough light and didn't have any glare was Verilux. It was heavy, but I preferred heavy one to LED based lamps with glare. Mighty Bright XtraFlex2 LED Light? Weight little, very bright. Hold charge for a long time.


Hope it helps
