> 3 dayI needed a light for my Kindle touch that would actually fit ON the Kindle. I also needed to be not too bright, because I wanted to read while I was nursing the baby in the middle of the night, and I didnt want it to wake him up. This light clips on via clamp, so it fits on my Kindle or on the case, and it has two brightness settings, so I can choose how much light I want/need. I find this incredibly useful. This is the third light I bought for the Kindle. The first one didnt work, and the second one didnt fit. This one was a bit more expensive than the other two, but since it works it was well worth it. I wish I would have just bought this one in the first place. I highly recommend it.

> 3 dayI bought this to use with my 2nd generation Kindle. I think it is a lot nicer than those goose neck reading lights. The Kandle snaps securely on the device and doesnt seem invasive like the other light I have. I know that sounds odd, but Im sure theres someone who knows what Im talking about :-) The Kandle conforms to the shape of the Kindle, its relatively flat, the adjustable lamp stays in place and shines down the page. It isnt as bright towards the bottom, but thats to be expected. The Kandle burns through batteries so pick up a package of batteries if you get this.

> 3 dayThis has to be the best light for Kindles on the market . It has a great feel to it as well as 2 light levels which makes it great for reading in bed . It comes with Lithium batteries pre installed and ready to go . It makes a world of difference on Kindle Key board . My son saw it the day after i got it and was up set I did not buy him one with mine . So I plan on buying another one very soon . It is a well made kindle light and has a nice smooth rubber like feeling to it . This is much better then the kindle lights with the flexible necks that are big and bulky . Buy one and you will be very happy......

> 3 dayI have a lot of hard cover books so I tried the kandle II on a couple of them and was surprised that it worked so well. It did not slip off the book and lit up both pages. The light was placed on the front side cover for about 180 pages and then I placed it on the back cover for the remaining 160 pages. I then tried the light on my new Kindle and it lit up the whole screen without any shadows. These tests were done in a dark walk in closet and the results were excellent. Easy on the eyes. Excellent construction and light weight. I have tried other clip on lights in the past with no good results but this one beats them all. I also attached it to the side of my laptop to light up the key board so that when I am riding in the car at night I do not need to keep the over head light on to see the key board. I will have to buy 3 more for the rest of my family as find this very handy.

> 3 dayIm so happy with this light that I recently purchased a second one. I have a Kindle 3 and this light works beautifully with it. Is it brighter closer to the bulbs than the bottom of the page? Of course it is, but not by much. This light gives off plenty of illumination to read anywhere on the page. Im over 50 and struggle to see well in poor light, but I can read just fine with this. If you do happen to have trouble, simply re-orient your Kindle page to landscape and clip your light to the long side of the Kindle and youll be fine. Ive also used this light for reading a regular book in a car at night and it works well for that too.

> 3 dayI read a lot at night while my spouse sleeps next to me. She often tells me to the light off. I had a previous light I used on my kindle but it had a long arm and flopped around a lot. This light is small and compact and clips right onto my kindle touch with its case on it. The light head is very bright and stable and can be positioned perfectly to make the e-ink display properly viewable without creating a significant glare. This is by far the best light I have used with my kindle. I highly recommend this to any kindle user who wants to read in low light, or does not want to disturb anybody else in a dark environment.

> 3 dayI was really surprised after receiving the Kandle II on their attention to quality and detail. The packaging was really well done. They provide a little tool, an extra set of batteries, and a nice carrying case for the device. I was concerned when I saw it online that any light attached to my Kindle would cause a significant weight burden and make holding my device less comfortable. I dont know what materials this Kandle is made out of, but it is LIGHT. I have no issues attaching it and reading on my Kindle. The other thing is that it provides nice little felt like protection on the grip so there are no scratches onto the Kindle. The 2 light settings are interesting. I read with either one depending on my eyes sensitivity to light. There is a light drop off which is to be expected, but I am able to read perfectly fine. I really like the device and strongly recommend it to anyone who wants to read when its dark. Also the graphite color matches my Kindle.

> 3 dayI bought this recently so I could stop bugging my husband with a lamp when I read after he goes to sleep. Its really great! It does clip on, which I didnt notice before I got it. Since the clip is so wide, I dont worry about it damaging my kindle like I did when I was using a regular book light. The light reaches all the way to the bottom of the page. The only thing I wish was different on it is that I wish it had a slightly dimmer setting. I think my eyes get sensitive at night, and it would be even less of a bother for sleeping partners that way. (I kind of assume a lot of people get them for that reason.)

> 3 dayThis is a great light. Its small, bright, sleek and fits right onto my Kindle Touch. I leave it there all the time, so Im never hunting around for it. It seems pricey, but I think the design is definitely worth it. After about 45 days I started to have problems with it NOT turning off; batteries dying...no good! Amazon was only offering a partial refund and ME paying return shipping. No thank you, not for a $25 book light! I contacted Ozeri directly. Theres where the value comes in: I explained my problem and disappointment. I got a reply in less than 24 hours, sent them my order# from Amazon and within 24 hours after that I had a new light in my mailbox. That is service and that makes for loyal customers! Love my light and Love Ozeri...

> 3 daythe brightness is crap! even on high. low setting is useless. too dim to read in the dark using just this light. i love the design - especially that it folds flush for travel and the graphite is a perfect match for my kindle 3 but it eats through the CR2032 (button cell) batteries and you need a mini screwdriver (supplied) to open up the battery door. very disappointed. perhaps if you dont like/need a lot of light to read by - because plenty of reviewers rave about this product - then try. but i dont like to have to strain my eyes. will have to try another type, perhaps the M edge light that uses AAA batteries (which are more easily available when travelling).
