LED Pagelight: Make Your Book Feel Like a Computer Screen

2008_06_20 page light.jpg We have all seen those clip on reading lights for reading books in the dark. There are even reading lights built into book covers. The LED pagelight though is the first one we have seen that can light up an entire page evenly.

Four AAA batteries and side firing LED's give you 40 hours of reading time, a dimmable light source and a bookmark that you will never lose....all in one slim package. Avaialble here for $25.

That is freaking brilliant. I might have to go get one of these...

I have one. I hate it. It scratches if you look at it funny, and the LEDs project a fan-shaped interference pattern across the light. It's difficult to juggle when it's time to turn a page, and it doesn't really play nice with thick paperbacks.

It's a lousy design, IMO.
