5.0 out of 5 stars Great little light for the size!, February 8, 2010

I love this little light! I was hesitant to try it since I couldn't find any reviews about it, but I am very pleased with it's light output.

PROS:

*It's bright enough to read by. I compared it to another little USB light I bought on Amazon (the Ultra USB Notebook Light) which has only one bulb. That one give you a good little spotlight, but just in a focused spot, which might be good for lighting your keyboard. This light gives a good flood of light over the whole work area, and as I said, is strong enough to read by.

*The light is white and not blue like LEDs can be sometimes.

*I loved that you have the choice of powering it through the USB, or putting 3 AAA batteries in it to power it that way. I suspect you could also use a wall AC adapter, but I haven't tried that yet. I also don't yet know how long the batteries last.

CONS:

*The only problem with it is, even with batteries in it, it has a tendency to want to tip forward. To me that's not too big of a deal since I could readjust it's center of gravity (move the head around) and it would stop trying to tip. I suppose you could add a weight to the back to help this too.

Overall, I recommend this light if you want an inexpensive light that's pretty small, plugs into USB port, and has multiple uses thanks to the batteries so you can take it places (like camping).

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, but get some small fishing weights, December 27, 2010

I was surprised at the construction quality and brightness of the LEDs. But, as many reviews stated, the base is too light when you bend the gooseneck out (the gooseneck is very sturdy). Well, I peered inside with a flashlight and didn't see any exposed electrical fittings, so I poured small fishing shot into the hole where the battery cover tabs closed, Voila! Weighted the base perfectly. This is a really good price for a super little light.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Little Lamp, March 31, 2011

I use this to light up my keyboard at night so I don't have to hunt for 'F' and 'J' (my fingers can't feel the bumps very well). It works great but, I agree with the base being too light.

I found that throwing a bunch of pennies inside the batter case works great - so long as you don't have batteries in there.

The USB cord is only about 3 feet but, it works great if you use an open front computer desk.

The construction is very hardy for an inexpensive little light and, it doesn't blind you in a completely dark room.
