Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of LightWedge NightVision LED Booklight
Customer Review: Lightwedge Nightvision is a great book light
Summary: 4 Stars
I have used my Lightwedge Nightvision book light for over a year now. I am a late night person and really like to read in bed - but any light disturbs my husband who goes to sleep earlier than I do. The Lightwedge is the first book light that has not bothered him AT ALL.
I have not used it every night, but probably have used it at least once a week for the last year. Other reviewers mentioned how easy it was to scratch so I've been extra careful with mine - including getting and using the soft case. It was fine until recently, when it seems to have gotten a lot of scratches in a short time. Not sure of the cause - but I can still read well with it and the scratches, for now, are minor distractions.
I recently tried it with my husband's Kindle - I have the full size Lightwedge and it covers virtually the whole Kindle 2. I have to hold it off to the side slightly so that I can access the 'turn page' button, but other than that it works quite well. I'm thinking the paperback size Lightwedge might do a better job and only cover the screen and not the entire Kindle.
I also changed the batteries for the first time in a year. I knew it had been getting harder to see the page, even in the brighter of the two modes, but I loathe changing batteries before they are completely dead. However, once I switched to new batteries, the change was so remarkable I knew it was worth it. Perhaps I'll be able to squeak the rest of the life of those batteries out of some other light or remote in my household.
I am upset to see that this item is 'no longer available' on Amazon, as I looked it up tonight 'just in case' those scratches went from a minor to a major irritation - plus I wanted to see if the paperback version came in the Nightvision red light. If I can't find the Nightvision in either size, I'll still buy the regular white one with confidence, though, as it's a great product.
