Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I got this light before the LED lights started coming out in the retail channel. Those lights tend to almost be too bright, but they have the advantage of running for ages on tiny batteries. Unfortunately, this light uses 4 AA batteries which makes it fairly hefty. It alternatively can operate on an AC adapter. This makes it lighter, but it's still bulky because of the battery compartment.
The Good:
The light is nicely bright with a natural quality that's easy on the eyes.
It has a ratcheting arm so you can put it where you want and it stays there (better than most of the flexible arm ones)
Includes an AC adapter slot (though no AC adapter)
Can help weigh down lighter books to keep the pages from turning
Nice large clamp for attaching to books.
Lamp shade which allows you to throw the light where you want without blinding your vision.
Decent quality plastic - Made in China
The Bad:
No brightness adjustment.
Heavy (can be a benefit in some cases) and makes holding up a book all the more tiring.
Bulky - Makes it really hard for a book to sit properly in your hand.
The ratcheting mades a loud click which can wake your wife in bed. :-)
The clip has very limited strength and seems to slip easily.
Eats up batteries fairly quickly - I use rechargeables in it now.
I'm giving it an even 2 because it's a pain to use, really. Hopefully I can find a light weight LED clip-on which has a brightness adjustment with a quiet arm that stays in place and most importantly - natural lighting. If so, I'll review it on here - but most LEDs wash out the page making it hard to read. The nice quality lamp is the only reason this one doesn't get 1.5 stars!
