2.0 out of 5 stars Bright light - poor construction, April 13, 2010

I LOVE the brightness of this light. Easily illuminates the entire page with the 3 bright LEDs so my eyes don't feel strained. The telescoping head makes positioning easy and the light stays where you aim it. This is a great book light for both hard cover and paperback books, when it works. I take this light everywhere, as a matter of fact this is my second light - I bought the same book light again when the first one died.

And that's the problem and why only 2 stars - because now this one is toast too, after only a year. The weak place is in the telescoping neck which moves in and out and is where the wires travel to get to the bulbs. I fixed the short in the current one once but now the wire is too frayed or disconnected or something for me to repair. Phooie! Also, the connector for the optional plugin attachment fits poorly into the book light and the LED lights blink every time I move or turn the page when it's plugged in. Double phooie! Now, I will admit, I use it almost every night and take it on all my trips and travels - however, isn't that what a book light is meant to do - be used?

I'm going to have to replace my current MightyBright with another MightyBright just like it if I can't find a bright clip on LED book light that doesn't have problems doing what it was built and sold to do -- and so far, I haven't found anything better out there.

Totally loved it, the best light ever but has a major problem which is the wiring that goes to the bulbs, after some use -mine lasted only 4 months- it goes completely dead. Very dissapointing

I have gone through about 5 book lights for my Kindle. This one is the best ever. I wanted something rechargeable so I wouldn't have to keep a mega stock of batteries. The cord on this one might seem to be an inconvenience to some, but I really don't mind. And if I'm on the go, I can always stick the batteries in.

The LED on this light is the best. I hate weak lights that leave me straining to see the bottom of the page. The Mighty Bright provides a nice even illumination that lets me concentrate on reading, not on attempting to see the words.

My only complaint about the Mighty Bright is the rather fragile design of the telescoping neck. There must be a better way to provide an extend-and-pivot mechanism. I'm always careful, but someday I'm pretty sure I'll be accidentally breaking the scrawny neck of this little beastie.
