Recommend a Book Light?
 
My current light has just bitten the dust. Can anyone recommend a good one. Include brand and model is possible. I use it to read in bead.

i use the mighty bright triple led book light. model # MBL3

I only use it when the power goes out and I need something to read with. It works preety good and was only $20. Borders carries it. Hope that helped

I found a comment elsewhere stating the 3 led book light was too bright to use when you have a wife in bed trying sleep. How about yours, too bright for others in bed? BTW, I think MBL3 is no longer used as a model number and the mighty bright I saw has a telescoping feature.

yeah Its very bright. Would not be good if you're by others. It's even brighter than my flashlights :lol:

I've been using the Planetbike Sport Spot which has a head strap. It's fairly bright and uses 3 AAAs. I can read in bed without disturbing my wife.

I ordered the Mighty Bright Triple led and will try it tonight for the first time.

My Mighty Bright arrived yesterday and I tried it last night. I find it adequate and I guess I'll keep it. I doesn't quite cover both pages of a pocket book (which surprised me) so it requires a slight adjustment of the light when going to the right-hand page of the book. I also find the build quality to be, well, cheap.

So, if this were Siskel & Ebert, I'd give it a marginal thumbs up.
