I have the same thing. It's a nice white light from it, which means it helps the contrast on the Cybook, meaning it looks very clear.

I do have to move the lamps slightly from time to time to make sure that they are completely obscured by their hoods, that they aren't shining directly on the Cybook and that they cover everything. There's a sweet spot where they do just that.

I'm really happy with it. Something else which helps is it seems to dim slowly over time, rather than work fine and then cut out. It means you can tell when the batteries need replacing, but you don't need to do it then and there. Batteries last weeks too.
