Not so sleek but very functional.
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) This is a tough one to call. I find this book light much easier to use than the LED types mounted on a flexible arm which can sometimes be too bright or end up not being able to be directed at the screen at a proper angle. This sits flat on the Sony Reader without pushing into the reader's screen because of the ridged light plate. However, because this is a light wedge, the left side of the light ...

Returning Mine Today
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) This light was a great idea, and I really wanted to love it, but I just can't. I will be returning it today. At first glance, the light appears to be a nice heavy duty well-designed product. The thick frosted glass was obviously well thought out and probably the best option for reducing glare. However, after using my light for just one week to read 2 books, I just can't get used to what I now c...

Excellent integration of functionality and convenience
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) This is a great accessory for the Sony e-book reader. It does not get in the way or create shadows/glare that a book light normally does, as a matter of fact it makes the screen look even more like paper and give it a nice glow.

Perfect for the eReader!
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) I am really not sure what the deal is with those saying this thing does not lay back flat against the cover when you are not using it. I can only imagine they have inserted the reader incorrectly or something else is not quite right. My light page stays flat out of my way when not in use. Having gone through dozens of book lights of various styles and settling on a Wedge for my regular books, I wa...

Perfect
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) This is the perfect companion to the sony reader. It uses its own batteries and puts out just the right amount of light. Great for reading in bed.

Not Quite What I Was Expecting
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) I was thrilled to find what I thought was an elegant lighting solution for the Sony reader, but found it had two issues that resulted in a return:1. The lighting was not very bright for me, and seemed to give the reading surface sort of a non-uniform, purple-ish appearance. I tried both brightness levels, but the effect was not appealing to me. This may be due to the thickness of th...

Functional but flawed
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) I received this as a gift, but I was horrified when I looked at the cost. At 22% of the original cost of the book, it is way over-priced. Pros:-It actually does work. -Batteries last a long time. I've read two books using this most of the time. Cons:-Haze - like some other reviewers I noticed that the reader added something of a haze between the reader (person) an...

It's just okay..
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) Although I can't change the "star rating" I wanted it to be 2 stars, not 3. I debated returning the ebook light but for some reason I kept it. It is a wonderful concept and does work but does not make reading comfortable. The shield is made of some sort of acrylic which would be okay but it is not clear. IT'S FROSTED. I don't understand why it would be frosted but for that reason it makes the...

Well-designed except for the light
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) I actually like this cover, but the light has turned out to be my least-favorite part of it. The cover is very nice quality, the Reader just looks great while sitting in it. And the flip-design of the light is convenient and especially nice for me because I *cough* lost my previous light.However, as others have mentioned the "light shield" has a frosty look to it that blurs text slight...

Ended a 35 year old argument between my wife and I
This review is from: Cover with Custom Light Shield +2 Aaa Batteries (Electronics) This reading light has been a lifesaver for me (almost literally). I love to read in bed and my wife is not a reader. Over the years we have had tons of arguments about me turning off my reading light. Even the little clip on book lights reflected too much in the room for her to be able to sleep well. This light has solved my problem.It lights the reader well enough for me to easily re...
