> 24 hourIm really happy with my Kandle. I was pleasantly surprised with the size and the power of the light system. It lights up the screen of the Kindle perfectly and enables me to read anywhere with all the light that I need. Havent used it long enough to know how long the battery life is, but so far so good. The only complaints that I have are the price, I do feel that it is a bit overpriced, and Im also not sure how sturdy it is, it doesnt appear to be very sturdy, it could me made out of a tougher material especially for the price that it is. I was very happy with the delivery, I received it the day after I odered it. Iwas only expecting a 2 day delivery and got it sooner thatn that, was also well packaged.

> 24 hourI tend to toss things into my purse so a book light with a long neck was definitely out of the question. The kandle II folds into a sturdy little block and they also include a pouch to store it in. If I am going to travel with a book light, I feel this would stand up to the jostling in my purse pretty well. So far so good! I have the latest version of the plain kindle and the amazon-produced leather kindle cover without the light. The kandle II clips on to the kindle just fine whether it is in or out of the cover. The only improvement I would want is for the clip to be adjusted so that it doesnt slide down further down onto the kindle screen. However, it is a small complaint. As long as you are careful not to knock it around, the kandle should stay in place just fine and for the low price, I am willing to put up with this very minor inconvenience. I love that there are two brightness settings and I find the low setting to be fine most of the time. Another great feature is the fact that it will turn off automatically if you fold the light closed which is fantastic. Its the small details like this which really sold me on this booklight. I definitely feel the quality is worth the price and I would advise anyone to get one.

> 24 hourI have a keyboard model Kindle that I use alot. However. it has always been difficult to read at night or on a plane. I purchased a leather case with a built in light but it only covered the top half of my page and not that well. Then I purchased a clip on small halogen light that was guarenteed to cover the page. Wrong! I was going to just forget about a light when I saw the Kandle. I decided to give it one last try, and purchased one to take on my lastest holiday. I was very excited when I found it had an adjustable head to ensure ligt covers the entire page, and it has to setting for brightness! It works great for night time reading or reading on a plane. I am very pleased and satisfied with this purchase and would highly recommend this ligt to anyone using a Kindle!

> 24 hourJust recieved my kandle ozeri II for my latest kindle. Love the design, specially the wide spread area. I love the two light settings and the light angle can also be changed. Way better than any other competing product on the market as of now. It is light enough not to tip the kindle over when holding it with one hand, which is what I do. Pros: Light, excellent ergonomics, great lighting options. Cons (if at all): if I push it all the way in the top part of kindle then I notice that it can encroach slightly on the very top line. Although, one does not need to push it all the way. It still holds very well.

> 24 hourKandle II by Ozeri is the best book light Ive owned, after using three other e-book lights with my Amazon Kindle. I like it to the point that I have already bought three more as gifts for family and friends. It is very compact, lightweight, clips securely to the top edge of the Kindle, and illuminates the whole screen evenly. The newest version has two functional improvements; there is now a self-locking battery cover and the light goes off - and stays off - automatically when the device is closed. This demonstrates Ozeris commitment to manufacture fine products. Furthermore, their customer service is outstanding. When my original Kandle began malfunctioning, I contacted them for a replacement as the device was still under warranty. I received a response from them within hours. They apologized for the problems I was experiencing with their product and a new Kandle II was at my door the same week, free of charge (I did not have to waste time returning the original device). In summary, the Kandle II e-book light is extremely functional, esthetically very pleasing, and I highly recommend the Kandle II by Ozeri to anyone looking for a light to use with their Amazon Kindle.

> 24 hourJust got this nice little light, and it has solved my problem of waking my spouse at night. Improvement I note: the unit turns off when folding the light closed, so no longer possible to run the batteries down by closing with the light on, or pressing the on/off button when closed. Also, with the light mounted at the top, the light level is a bit dim by the time it gets to the bottom of the screen, but unlike one other review I read, it can be mounted on the side if youre careful; this results in a more even illumination across the screen on my Kindle Touch, and does not shine the light or its reflections into my wifes eyes. She loves it, and so do I. Great little product, worth the money. Five stars!

> 24 hourI scoured Amazon and the other reviews for a Kindle light, and was excited to discover something perfectly matched for my Kindle! I wanted something small and bright, so I could read in bed without disturbing the spouse. Some of the reviews mention that it is too dim for night reading, but this looked to perfect so I ordered it anyway. Upon receiving my Kandle II, I was impressed by the quality of the design and feel. It complements the Kindle perfectly. However, that night, when I turned it on, it shined brightly for 2 minutes and then faded away to an unreadable dim level. I tried for 2 weeks to make it work (even replacing the batteries), but no success. My Kandle would start out bright and fade out in a matter of minutes. Flustered, I emailed their customer support, and was pleasantly surprised to have someone reply back to me within an hour! I explained the problem to Bryan from Ozeri, and he mailed me a replacement Kandle a day later, no questions asked! The replacement unit is amazingly bright, and illuminates the entire Kindle screen for hours on end. This little light, while expensive, totally rocks! If yours has a problem, email Ozeri and they will take care of it!

> 24 hourI purchased this product to use while reading in bed with my Kindle Touch. Simply said, it does exactly what I needed. The only reason for not giving it 5 stars is the unevenness of the page coverage. The bottom of the page is slightly dimmer than the top. This is a very minor complaint however, and doesnt affect the ability to read. I also like the compactness of the Kandle. Seems a much better solution than the products that use unwieldly gooseneck lamps.

> 24 hourI really dont understand why this could not have a rechargeable battery. Other than needing expensive CR2032 batteries this light is great. I just received it yesterday so Im not sure what the battery life will be. Hopefully the battery life will be very long considering its only powering 3 small LEDs. FYI - even on the lowest light setting itll still light up a room, I may try and tape something to dim it down even more so I can read in bed without disturbing my wife.

> 24 hourI love this book light. Its small but powerful. It even fits in the outer pocket of my Kindle case by Belkin (tho, its for the 2nd generation Kindle not the latest, which I have so theres a little extra room.) I dont understand people who say its not bright enough. Ive not found that to be a problem at all. The one thing I dont like about this book light is the placement of the power switch. Its located in the exact place you need to place your thumb to squeeze open the clip. That means every time you put it on or take it off the Kindle, youre either turning it on or turning it off unintentionally. Thats kind of a pain but not a deal-killer. I do think the price is a bit steep as well, but that obviously didnt keep me from buying it.
