I absolutely LOVE this Kindle reading light. I had previously purchased a different reading light and it damaged the skin that I put over my kindle. I was not a happy camper considering I paid $20 for the skin. There is no problem with that here!
Many people have complained about this light not fitting the Kindle 3 but they do include a plastic piece that can be used with the light to help it fit. Since I am using it over both my Kindle and the cover I have for it, I do not have that problem. It's very sturdy and I have no problem with it sliding or slipping in the least.
I also appreciate that it has 2 brightness settings. It's perfect for reading in bed before sleep or anywhere there is dim lighting.
The moveable neck is also a great feature, it allows me to move the light to exactly where I need it depending on where I have the Kindle placed.
I hope this helps those of you deciding which light to pick. I don't regret this purchase at all!

This is my second Belkin Clip-on Light and I love them! The reason I bought a second is because I wore mine out. I read every night and in darkened areas without fail and I have bent the flex neck on my first clip-on light every which way since I've gotten it and it's endured it beautifully. Make no mistake, it still works fine but I like to have a back-up. One of my biggest fears is not having my Belkin Light, I can't sleep without reading at night and Belkins Clip-On Light has yet to fail me in the 2 years that I've owned them.

What I like about my Belkin Clip-On Light for Kindle:

-It fits my Kindle 2 & 3 with or without the Leather Cover. The Light comes with an insert for the Kindle 3 to ensure a proper fit.
-I can bend the Flex Neck any way I want i.e. facing away from my husband yet still on my Kindle at night, therefore not disturbing him but still allowing me to see without difficulty
-I can use it on print books
-I get HOURS of reading time with 3 triple A batteries
-I have a choice of 2 different light settings
-It's incredibly easy to store: The light attached to the flex neck fits into the clip-protecting the light and making it easy to travel with and to store when not in use.

I have no dislikes

I higly recommend this light for your 'in the dark' reading needs. I never leave home without it and if you like to read at night or in areas where the light is not sufficient, then this is the light for you!
