Thanks. I thought for a moment that I was supposed to get a light of some description as part of the unit.

The way it works is quite good, and smart if you think about it.
The biggest whinge we have is over the glare....And what is glare, but unwanted light.
So, what this clever little device does is something "e-light". It project a thin film of darkness ( think if a polaroid lens, without the glass, simply done by using the e-light).
Then with the film of darkness, blocking your glare, voila....a clearly visible screen.
