Customer Reviews

Lightwedge Paperback1
I bought the paperback size LightWedge because I have the hardcover size already and love it. The light distribution on the paperback size unit I received was not the same as the hardcover size. On the paperback size unit the light made "ripples" across the surface, like a drop of water does, making night reading impossible. There were light rings alternating with dark rings across the entire reading surface eminating from the lightsource. I'm not sure if I received a defective unit, but I returned it and will go to a local bookstore and "test" another one before purchasing again.

A limited-use product3
The product is designed to fit over a mass-market paperback book, and is really only effective for that size book. It provides adequate light, better than any other book lights I have tried, but it really doesn't work at all for books other than mass-market paperback. The larger size lightwedge would probably have been a better choice, but has the disadvantage of being larger and heavier. Since I only use book lights when traveling, size and weight are an issue.

Wish it helped2
Wavy lines when the light was turned on, made reading difficult. I think the manufacturer should have been able to figure out how to eliminate this distraction.
