MrsMe Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 LED Booklights that lays on the page to light up the entire page? Do you like it? Or any other book light recommendations? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudoMom Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I have a Lightwedge and I do not like it at all. My boys have all tried it, and they do not like it, either. I know some people love them. I find it cumbersome and irritatingly difficult to have to move the light to turn the page. I'd much rather just use a clip on light.

I know some people love them. I find it cumbersome and irritatingly difficult to have to move the light to turn the page. I'd much rather just use a clip on light. Yep. I hate having to constantly move it. Because I'm too cheap to invest in a new one, I do still use mine: I lay it on my chest to light up my book as I lay on my back to read, or I tuck it under my bottom-most hand when I lay on my side :D Go with a nice MightyBright instead. In fact, if you have a Costco membership, they are currently selling a two-pack for just a dollar or so more than the single ones you can buy at Amazon. (Of course I discovered this AFTER I bought DD6 one from Amazon :glare:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Momma2Many66 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm going to be the dissenter and say that I have one and I LOVE IT !! I have gotten them for each member of my family, we are all HUGE night readers. My kids each love having their own and lug them around everywhere ! They have made fantastic stocking stuffers over the years :001_smile: The one I use is over 5 years old and still going strong. It has gotten some scratches on it from wear and tear, but my husband fixed the scratches by applying some type of car wax or something, now the scratches are practically invisible. I love the way I can lay it on the page and it lights up the whole page so well. This allows me to read at night and not disturb my husband in bed beside me. If I may make a recommendation though, get the solid colored ones, the translucent colored lightwedges make too much light from the handle portion and it pulls your eye away from the page. It can be very distracting. So I solved the problem by purchasing solid colored handles instead on the lightwedge. Read the reviews for the lightwedge on Amazon and you can get a good idea if it will be a fit for your family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrsMe Posted December 13, 2011 Author Share Posted December 13, 2011 The amazon reviews seemed to prefer the hardcover book one as opposed to the lightweight paperback LEDs. Mama2Many66, the solid color handle is good information, thanks. Do you have a lightweight? I'm guessing they didn't have those then. We've done the Mighty Lights, but they just don't last. I thought dd would be more apt to turn off the lightwedge. She used the other to leave on all the time and clipped it to her headboard.
