Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Mighty Bright XtraFlex2 Light (Silver)Customer Review: Great light Summary: 4 Stars
I really like this light. I bought it for use with my new Kindle because where I live tends to have a few power outages every year, and when the power goes out during dark hours reading is pretty much all there is to do! As much fun as I thought getting the bright purple or blue would be, I decided on the silver because I thought it would be less distracting in actual use. I thought it would blend into the surroundings more and I was right about that.
I absolutely love that it has two lights so you can choose which best fits your needs at the moment, saving on battery drain when you can. In dim lighting conditions one bulb is plenty. In full dark then using two works best.
The neck is long enough that it allows for extra flexibility in positioning to avoid glare on the Kindle screen and I'm not having any problems with it being too floppy to stay where I put it. I'd imagine that might change over time with use, but I'd also imagine that is true of all lights using that type of flexible neck.
The clip is wide enough so that it doesn't cause too much pressure on a very small spot and it seems just right in the amount of tension is has, not too much and not too little. It works best by clipping on to my Kindle cover, but I can actually use it on just the Kindle plastic casing too.
One of the best parts is that it uses normal AAA batteries for easy replacement. I hate products that use odd battery sizes so that you have to search for a store that sells that particular size.
I did take off one star for the design of the power button. While it's a nice design with just pushing it, because it's slightly raised above the level of the bulb housing I can see why others report they have problems with it being accidentally turned on when being carried in a purse or briefcase. For me that's not an issue because I will either just be using it at home or on vacations. At home it just sits on a shelf and for trips I can remove the batteries before putting it in my luggage.
Description of Mighty Bright XtraFlex2 Light (Silver)The Mighty Bright 40512 XtraFlex2 Book Light excels equally as a book, craft or utility light. It features two LEDs which makes it the brightest with a single gooseneck design. Bright, yes, but the non-glaring glow makes for a comfortable reading and work light. This booklight lets you set the intensity by pressing the button once or twice and you can clip and twist it to set the perfect angle, the gooseneck obeys your every whim.
