Not perfect, but still a good thing, September 18, 2010

This review is from: GE 17228 LED Book Lights, Battery Operated Clip-On, Colors May Vary (Tools & Home Improvement)

I purchased two of these; one to go in my e-reader accessories pouch and one for my bedside table. The light is much brighter than it really needs to be, but that’s not a problem except for a super light-sensitive sleeper, as another reviewer mentioned. The lights are inexpensive, small, light and extremely portable, and I was lucky enough to find a pink one. The battery cover is very easy to manipulate and I love that the light takes two AAA batteries.

Here’s how it works: The light is made a bit like an alligator clip. When the clip is opened, the light comes on. There’s a slot on the back lip of the clip, and the idea is to fit the back cover of the book into the slot. The clip opening can be adjusted for optimum lighting.

There are a couple of design issues purchasers should be aware of. It doesn’t work as planned on very thick books. I’m reading Diana Gabaldon’s latest, and it’s thicker than the light’s widest setting. I resolved this by slotting a group of pages in the middle of the book into the light and because it’s so lightweight, that works just fine. For very large books, the bottom of the page is pretty shadowy, but that can be resolved by holding the light over the page. My e-reader, an Aluratek Libre, is a hair too thick to hold the light securely, but the size is perfect for the Libre’s smallish screen.

Overall I’m happy with my GE Booklights. Thy’re not perfect, but I’m thrilled that I can read at night without bothering anyone.

Great little book light. It’s got a brightness that might disturb your bed partner who can’t sleep unless there is total darkness. I “husband tested” mine and it works fine for us.

I love these booklights! They are great! I bought one around Christmas for my daughter from Walmart and finally found them again here on Amazon. They are great because they use 3AAA batteries – no funky expensive flat watch-type batteries. They last quite a while and they work perfectly! My girls love them!

Great professional looking notebook, May 28, 2004

Great construction!
If you need to look professional and are tired of steno pads, yellow pads etc. this is it.
Also it’s great to use for a legal reference notebook, all of the pages are numbered and if you ripped one out you’d noticed.

I used Boorum and Pease books for over a year without a problem. I purchased a wilson jones book and the pages are falling out. I never had this problem with Boorum and Pease.
