Classic B&N Book Light

jhempel24 · 11-06-2010, 06:54 AM

Well I ended up getting one of the B&N branded book lights for the $15 they charge.

I had the Owl Light, didn't like it...the Might Brite...didn't like it, they just didn't seem to light the page evenly at all.

This light is actually really good, and the led is pretty tiny in comparison! I can read at night again finally! LOL.

I originally bought the BN one, but found that it didn't light the whole page. Then I found one at Target that was about $5 more but infinitely better. It's got 3 LED lights and clips over the top of the Nook, similar to the Kindle's Kandle. It has a swivel hinge so you can angle it the way you like. It also uses AAA batteries, which are much more economical, especially if you use the rechargeable type. It's just called "EBook Lite" and it's in an orange package.

Here is a pretty good summary of this light.

From the looks of it, I'm going to stick with my Nook light...I have no reason to change, it works perfectly. I see some major flaws in the Kandle light, like hot spots and I think the brightness from the 3 leds would be uncomfortable for me after a while.
