 Collected Another Kindle Light! May 13, 2010

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R18NUAAR1OM5PU Edit on July 10, 2010:
I have added a very short video comparing a few of my reading lights, but please understand I am not a videographer, so it really isn't that good. But I hope it helps someone though.
I still use the Belkin light the most and no longer look for any other reading lights for my Kindle - it broke my addiction! :)
Original Review:
I admit to collecting reading lights for my Kindle (you can see my review of others here: Mighty Bright MiniFlex Book Light, Black), so it wasn't surprising when I ordered this one after seeing it mention on the Kindle forum here on Amazon.
The light is very bright - even on the lowest setting. It might actually be a bit too bright if you are reading in bed with a significant other, but I don't have that problem at the moment.
I read my Kindle naked - sans cover. This light firmly holds onto the Kindle without or without a cover. It is different than the other Might Bright Lights, as this doesn't clip on per se - it will slide onto the naked Kindle, and will extend to fit over the Kindle with a cover. I have added pictures above to show this in more detail.
For me, the biggest issues are weight of the light and limiting a hotspot on the Kindle screen. I find this light to weigh about the same as the Mighty Bright XtraFlex2 Clip-On Light (Kindle Version) Black [Amazon Frustration-Free Packaging], (maybe a little less) but it seems more balanced because of the wider base - easier for me to use in bed while I am lying on my side. The front edge also will not touch the Kindle screen like the Might Bright will. And I am able to adjust the light so I have no hotspot on the screen.
Some of these things are probably personal preference, so your mileage may vary. If you like the Kandle, this probably isn't for you. If you like the Mighty Bright, this is slightly better in my opinion, but a bit pricier.
Enjoy! :)

Like Periwinkle I have been collecting various lights for my Kingle 2. After reading Perkiwinkle's review, I bought this light. I absolutely love it. It is much lighter than all the other lights for the Kindle 2. It can be adjusted where there is no glare. I have been using it every day for going on a couple weeks. I do a lot of night reading so the weight, amount of light is important to me. I find this to be the perfect lightweight and the amount of light perfect.
Now I have to figure out what to do with those other lights as this is the perfect light for the Kindle 2.
I have a gel cover on my Kindle 2 and the light fits over it very well. Admittedly it is a snug fit, but that what I would want.
I would give this 100 stars if I could.
Excellent Illumination For Kindle DX May 20, 2010

I read at bedtime to prepare myself for a good night sleep. So, I've always been in search of a good book light--even before I owned a Kindle DX. I had been using the M-Edge e-Luminator2 Kindle DX Booklight (Fits 9.7" Display, Latest Generation Kindle DX) in combination with the M-Edge Platform Leather Kindle DX Jacket (Fits 9.7" Display, Latest Generation Kindle DX), Pebbled Navy. But the e-Luminator2 just did not illuminate the full screen of my Kindle DX. I had resorted to adding a second generic clip-on LED light to the bottom of my Kindle. The entire contraption weighed about as much as an average Robert Jordan hard cover novel.
Then I noticed this light had recently been added to the Kindle line of accessories. Based on a few good reviews I bought one. I'm glad I did. The three LEDs provide more than enough illumination to cover the complete reading area of a Kindle DX. Yes, because it is bright, it can create hot spots. However, the Belkin has a wonderfully long arm that can easily be adjusted to a glare free position. Also, the flexible arm holds its shape and position extremely well.
I now can read my Kindle DX at night, without the cover and with only a single light. The entire combination is about as heavy as Robert Jordan paperback.
Handy little gadget June 6, 2010

So i've been surfing around for a light for my kindle for a bit, the only requirements being that it lights up my kindle and wont hurt it/scratch it. As per these preconditions i've been hesitant to buy some of the others that you can get like the Great Point Light Flex Neck Clip-On reading light or the M-Edge e-Luminator2 Booklight because i also like to read with my kindle 'naked'.
So i saw this one and decided to give it a go -
- Does a great job lighting up my kindle, there are no glare spots that cant be coaxed away
- Fits on my kindle like a glove, an im not worried about any damage done because of the anti-slip grip
- It's nice and light so you barley notice it when your holding your kindle
- It squishes up for easy travel
- And kudos to the 'guaranteed frustration free packaging' which i just found amusing
Overall, i am very happy

This light is outstanding; the best I have used. It fits securely over the Kindle and the book cover. No need to remove the cover to use. The flexible arm is really flexible and can be adjusted to any angle. The adjustable depth of the clip makes it possible to use it with or without the cover.
