Booklight Number 5 or 6 or so

Okay, another round of booklight decision-making for me.

I have this one, a Great Point Flex-Neck, and while it's just about perfect for paper books, isn't bright enough, and doesn't have large enough coverage for the Sony reader when in full darkness (I use it, but it's a struggle). It has 2 LEDs:


Someone said this was their favorite so far, Energizer Trim Flex, but it's not obvious that it's any brighter than the Flex-Neck, or has good coverage:


Some people have this, Great Point 3 LED Book Light, and it looks promising - any comments on it? Too bright? Good coverage?:


Then there's this, Great Point ReLight, with 4 LEDs, rechargeable (great!), but it may be too heavy/bulky, and the curved lens makes me think it may cast light everywhere:


I don't want to try more lights without a little assurance - my wife already thinks I've got a ridiculous number of book/flashlights. I'm not interested in head or ear-mount lamps - those just don't work for me.

Thanks for any input!
