Ge Led Book Light Blue Color

So, we have a stationary bike with a monitor for various things that is impossible to read. Why the thing didn't come with a back light is beyond me. Anyway, I mounted the base of this light with three screws to the bike monitor. Raising and lowering the light itself helps get the view right for different peoples' height and their angle of view. The LED extends 'out' away from the upper plastic so the light is visible from all sides and is very bright. You won't have a problem with reading anything but it might bother the neighbors if you have the shade up. It takes 2 AAA batteries (not included) that are easily accessed through the blue cover you see in the photo. I have now had this item in use for about 8 months and it is still performing flawlessly even with my young grandkids snapping it open and closed while playing on the stationary bike.Bottom Line: I previously gave it a four because I'm not using it for a book light but, because it is still going strong, it is a fair price, and it does work very well for my stationary bike I have upgraded it to 5 stars. I believe I have seen this item at the local big box store but ordering it here was about as seamless a purchase as anyone could hope for.

I like this light because it's unique compared to other book lights I've used. It's very bright and it works just fine for what it was intended. The only thing I didn't like is how hard it is to open up and close until it gets worn down a little bit. I'm afraid I'm going to break it every time I open it.

Very cheaply made. The brightness of the light is good and able to be used but other than that it is very cheap. You cannot adjust the angle very well and there is no covering around the light so it blinds everyone sitting next to you. The light also does not reach all of the areas that you want to be able to read.

It doesn't put out enough light especially on magazines and large books. It's seems to be okay for paper backs. I do like the way it turns off when you fold down the upper lever and turns on when you raise it. It's small and good for travel. Be careful when attaching to pages with the plastic lever, it doesn't take a lot of pages.For the price it's okay.

Had to tape the cover to keep it on after putting batteries in. Otherwise o.k.

This is a book light that has one LED light powered by 2 AAA batteries. The book light clips to the back or front cover or several pages and hinges closer or further from the page. A lot of book lights take "pill" batteries that are fairly expensive and not as readily available as AAAs. Though some might like a telescopic head on their light, so as to better position the light source, I've found that the hinge action of this light is functional enough. The light dims a little as the batteries weaken, but I use rechargable AAAs and always have a new set on hand. Whatever batteries you use, they last a tremendously long time running only one LED light. The plastic casing and slide for the battery compartment are fairly cheaply made, but not any more so than I would have expected. I've purchased these for friends and myself and have had no negative comments. If I ever damage mine (which I've been using for about three years) I'll be buying another. You can also get these in a multi-color pack, but when I bought this one blue one, it was still cheaper individually.

My wife and I love these! I'll be curious to see how long they actually last but I have gotten through most of the Harry Potter series and a couple of other books. So far I have had no issues with the light and have found it to be slightly dim on larger paged books, but for the most part it's perfect and does what it was intended to do. The clip that attaches to the pages could stand a little improvement but it's easy enough to find a way to make it work.

Bought this for my wife, who likes to read in bed.The regular batteries means they're cheaper and easier to replace, and you can use rechargeables if you wish.My wife says it's a good color for reading, and it seems to be holding up well so far.
