Product Description The perfect accessory for any eBook, the Kandle by Ozeri is designed for the Amazon Kindle 1, 2, and DX, Sony Reader Digital Books, and other eBook Readers. Newly updated in July 2010 with improved lightening, the Kandle by Ozeri features a new patent pending design that attaches to eBooks and printed books without blocking the screen or page. It also boasts double pivoting arms that allow for easy positioning and adjustment to tailor the screen illumination. The Main Pivoting Arm rotates 90 degrees from its closed position, and the Upper Pivoting Arm rotates another 70 degrees for complete customization. Unlike other eBook lights, the Kandle by Ozeri is powered by two lifetime x2 LEDs that are optimized to distribute light evenly without creating glare or eyestrain. Petite and light, the Kandle by Ozeri is ultra portable and folds into a closed position where the LEDs are fully protected from scratches or breakage. Ships with 2 CR2032 batteries installed, a bonus set of extra batteries, and a protective pouch included.

The best and most practical booklight so far!January 6, 2010 Christine Chang(Chicago) 1098 out of 1125 found this review helpful

My wife? Cuddly as a panda cub. She sweetly bought me a Kindle DX for my birthday, but as my late-night reading habit brought unwelcome lamplight to our bed, her temper became violent, mafia violent. "I can't sleep! I'm going to smash your new toy!" she growled one morning with the force of crossed gods and dying suns. A chill swept over the planet. Birds stopped singing. Children paused in playgrounds.
Enter the Kandle. Now I can read in bed (my favorite place in the house) with barely any light spilling over onto my wife's eyelids. The bedside lamp stays dark. No more threats against the Kindle or me.
Suggestion: Clip the Kandle to the side of the DX to illuminate its larger screen. (The bottom of the page is a tad dark if the Kandle is placed along the top of the DX.)
great book light...nice and portable!December 31, 2009 JK 62 out of 69 found this review helpful
Got this book light for my Kindle reader. Folds down into a nice compact design making it easy for carrying. My other book light was always getitng tangled up and kept on turning on by itself in my bag causing the batteries to run out. This one attaches securely to my kindle and doesnt move around like the other one I have. This one also matches the Kindle color.
a kandle for every kindleJanuary 21, 2010 gristerz(San Francisco, CA) 42 out of 46 found this review helpful
I spent a lot of time researching booklights for my kindle (6" global) and checked the Lightwedge and some Mighty Bright designs (which got superb reviews) at a local Barnes & Nobles store before purchasing this product. The size, design, and features of the kandle pretty much match everything I want in a kindle booklight:
*Lightweight and compact (if you have a lot of electronic gadgets, cables, and chargers to always pack, this makes a huge difference)
*Flat and rectangular clip-on (easy to fit in a jacket pocket or flat zip-case, unlike traditional, bulky desk lamp designs)
*Cordless (no long neck to stuff or tangle in my bags)
*Adjustable lighting angles (There are many ways to illuminate the entire reading area to achieve the desired lighting intensity and also minimize impact on people next to you, whether you're in bed or on the plane)
The kandle is very versatile and portable and will work great with clipboards, magazines, and laptop screens as well.
Well worth the investment!
