A handle is connected to a rectangular acrylic lens, and with the push of a button, LED light shines through the acrylic to illuminate the page.

    3 out of 5 stars A limited-use product   January 7, 2008
     17 out of 19 found this review helpful

    The product is designed to fit over a mass-market paperback book, and is really only effective for that size book. It provides adequate light, better than any other book lights I have tried, but it really doesn't work at all for books other than mass-market paperback. The larger size lightwedge would probably have been a better choice, but has the disadvantage of being larger and heavier. Since I only use book lights when traveling, size and weight are an issue.

    Wavy lines when the light was turned on, made reading difficult. I think the manufacturer should have been able to figure out how to eliminate this distraction.


    4 out of 5 stars Love at First Light   January 10, 2008
     8 out of 10 found this review helpful

    I love this light and find it fits in my small paperbacks just fine. I am only aware of two sizes: hardback and paperback. Maybe there is a size just for mass market paperbacks. My only issue is that the new models do not have an adjustable light. That was great because when the new batteries are installed the light is a bit too bright for me. I read to get drowsy and fall asleep. Yes, the batteries are a bit hard to install and you must be careful not to break the battery cover, as I did with my very fist light. Yes, it scratches. Yes, the batteries won't last a long time if you leave the light on all night after you've fallen asleep. BUT, you won't set the house on fire. No matter its failings, this is the best book light I have ever, ever used. Best on the market. I'm pretty fussy, and this book lights gets out of the way so you can enjoy your book and those around you can enjoy whatever it is they want to do in the dark.


    4 out of 5 stars spots   December 23, 2007

    There were a few tiny spots that seem to be inside the lightwedge when I received it. Have only had it for a few weeks and keep it in a soft cover, but more spots seem to appear. Also, as mentioned in a prior review, there are waving lines that can be annoying.

    Great book light. I wished I had gotten the regular size though. When it says paperback, it means romance size book.
