there will be situations in which an externally lit screen is preferred. Taking those situations and adherents, the question arises as to which external reading light is the softest to the eye, for which I will clarify my own position further. I am only able to sit in an upright reading/working position for limited periods of time, about 1½ hours maximum. The remaining times I need to recline, where I am propped by my carers, and for periods too I need to lie on my back. For all these positions I have a bewildering amount of gadgets. When on my back the eReader is stored in a self-standing adjustable angle case. This houses Kindle Keyboard (a lovely reader!) and Kindle Paperwhite, the latter being the easiest with a view to lighting. My favourite light (from a lighting point so far) is Octovo Solis, but not clipped to the Kindle when lying on my back as it shines straight into my eyes, so I prop it on my chest with crumpled muslin and then hope for the best.
To help solve this problem, a "Wedo LED Clip-On Reading Light for Kindle Books Pads Clipboards" has been added to my family of gizmos. I attach it to a mini clipboard, tuck on onb my chest and the angle the light any way I want. Pretty good, except the light quality, isn't nearly as good as the Octovo
So in the Glowing —non-Glowing thread, the strand of the question of readers' experiences of external reading lights would would be very welcome!
