Kandle by Ozeri II Book Light -- LED Reading Light Designed for Books and eReaders.

The Kandle II works wonderfully with my Kindle touch and is just what I was looking for. Please note that reviews stating that the light remains on when the unit is closed are NOT accurate for the Kandle II. Perhaps that is true with the Kandle, however the Kandle II very definitely shuts off when it is closed. In fact, the next time it is opened, the on/off switch must be re-activated for the light to come on. I love the fact that I can clip this light to any edge of my Kindle. This is particularly useful when I read in bed on my side. I would recommend this product to anyone.

the brightness is crap! even on high. low setting is useless. too dim to read in the dark using just this light. i love the design - especially that it folds flush for travel and the graphite is a perfect match for my kindle 3 but it eats through the CR2032 (button cell) batteries and you need a mini screwdriver (supplied) to open up the battery door. very disappointed. perhaps if you dont like/need a lot of light to read by - because plenty of reviewers rave about this product - then try. but i dont like to have to strain my eyes. will have to try another type, perhaps the M edge light that uses AAA batteries (which are more easily available when travelling).

Received the Kandle II today, and Im really impressed! My Kindle Touch was a gift for Christmas last year, and Ive been searching for a light ever since (I have a drawerful of various designs to prove it!). I havent been happy with any of them, and was seriously considering upgrading to the Paper White. Came across this little gem quite by accident and was immediately interested. It was small, no flimsy arm to get in the way or adjust, just clean lines and, I hoped, a good light without glare that would reach to the bottom of the screen. Then I started reading the reviews. I always read beginning with the newest, and Im glad I did. Apparently, when this light was first offered (I read reviews back to 2011), it had several problems, and there were many complaints. However, the reviews from early 2012 were all very favorable. Apparently this company was actually reading these negative reviews and acted on them to improve their product. The light gives a good even light all the way to the bottom of the screen, there is no glare whatsoever, and it clips nicely to the Kindle (with a Kindle cover). I cant speak to battery life, Ive only had it one day; however, this light is so amazing Im not really conerned about it, Ill just make sure I always have batteries on hand. Bottom line, Ill be keeping my Touch for a good long time because of this light. I highly recommend it to all Kindle owners.

Not much more to say that others havent said. Its smaller then you might think when compared to the photos on this site, and thats a positive in my view. I have it clipped on the top of my basic model Kindle. It provides more then enough light using just the low-level light setting. You can easily switch back and forth from high to low if necessary. You can read in total darkness without waking your spouse. It bevels up/down to eliminate any glare issues. And the coolest part for me is this; it makes reading more fun. From suspenseful to scary books, it helps create a nice reading atmosphere. For $20 buy it, I seriously doubt youll have any regrets.

This is a terrific product. It lights up the whole screen, its so easily adjustable and theres virtually no glare. And theres no light on a pole that you have to move out of the way. I also discovered that it makes a handy little flashlight if youre looking for the bathroom in a strange house. Im very pleased with this purchase and I love the extra batteries and the little carrying case too! It seems to be very sturdy and the price was more than reasonable. Its a great value for the money. I took off one star (would have only taken a half if I could) because it could use a little more tension on the clamp. It didnt fall off for me, but it did move around and slide down onto the very top of the reading surface a few times. There was no real inconvenience here, just a little anxiety that it would fall off if I moved too fast. Update: After going back and reading some other reviews, Id like to clarify a few things. I paid $19.95 for this light, not the $39.99 price listed, so I found it to be a good bargain. Id also like to point out that some of the cons mentioned in other reviews have been fixed on the one I have. A screwdriver is no longer required (or provided) for changing the batteries and the the light shuts off automatically now when the unit is closed. This tells me that the manufacturer is paying attention and sincerely dedicated to producing a quality product. For that reason, Ive updated this to five stars.

I really like the design of this booklight. I had one of the bendy booklights before and it made the kindle harder to hold with one hand and I was constantly readjusting the position. This one provides more light and feels more stable. I would give it five stars except the batteries that came with the light didnt even last me an entire book. The light did come with replacement batteries which I have now used. Im worried that they will burn out when Im on vacation or something so Im going to order more. Im a little frusterated that Im already ordering batteries when Ive only had this item for a week and a half and havent even made it through an entire novel with it.

I purchased this product to use while reading in bed with my Kindle Touch. Simply said, it does exactly what I needed. The only reason for not giving it 5 stars is the unevenness of the page coverage. The bottom of the page is slightly dimmer than the top. This is a very minor complaint however, and doesnt affect the ability to read. I also like the compactness of the Kandle. Seems a much better solution than the products that use unwieldly gooseneck lamps.

Just recieved my kandle ozeri II for my latest kindle. Love the design, specially the wide spread area. I love the two light settings and the light angle can also be changed. Way better than any other competing product on the market as of now. It is light enough not to tip the kindle over when holding it with one hand, which is what I do. Pros: Light, excellent ergonomics, great lighting options. Cons (if at all): if I push it all the way in the top part of kindle then I notice that it can encroach slightly on the very top line. Although, one does not need to push it all the way. It still holds very well.

I tend to obsess about finding the perfect solution for things, and this happened also with my search for a light for my new kindle touch, that I absolutely love. I ended up trying 7 different lights, and will post this comparison as a review for all of them. Hopefully others can benefit from my experience... - Might Bright XtraFlex2: It is, indeed, mighty bright, but more in scope than in intensity. It casts light on a HUGE area, enough to disturb my partner in bed... On the kindle itself, it is only slightly brighter than other lights. Not enough to justify its size in my opinion. Which brings us to its other flaw - it is BIG. The clip is too large to clip straight onto the top of the kindle. I had to clip it diagonally. It seemed to work and be stable that way, but it is a big beast, and would not be convenient for travel, for me. Given that the illumination onto the kindle itself was only slightly brighter than other lights, I didnt think it was a good solution. - Verso clip-on: Good travel size, very very blue light, not very bright, and it actually POPPED OFF my kindle when I tried to adjust the head of the light to shine in a slightly different direction. And while its fairly small, it does not fold in any particular way, so its not very compact. - Verso Arc: Nice form factor, but I found the bright but somewhat uneven, and worst of all (which is why I returned it), if I held it in bed in a particular angle that I happen to like, the light reflected off the top of the screen in a really annoying way. Also, the light was VERY much on the blue end of the spectrum (cold). - Octovo: Also a compact light, but I found it very weak. - Belkin Clip-On: As *light*, this was the best light of all. It is the only one that was truly warm (more like daylight), rather than blue. I loved the *light*. BUT, it is NOT adapted for the kindle touch!!! The adapter they send is for the kindle *keyboard* (as off Dec 2011). It just keeps falling off the kindle touch. With tried it with my partners keyboard, and it fit perfectly. So watch out for that. Furthermore, it IS bulky. I could live with the bulk because I loved the light itself so much, but if it keeps falling off, that makes it useless. If they ever come out with a version for the touch, I might buy it just to have by the bed, and use another light for travel (see below). - Kandle (regular): Form factor wise, it is the nicest and most elegant. Fits on the Kindle like a glove, and even fits into my Belkin sleeve for the kindle. Yes, the light on the screen is a bit uneven (weaker at the bottom or on the further side, depending on whether you have it mounted on the side or the top), but not terribly so. BUT it has two major flaws. (1) When you close the lid, the light does not shut down automatically. And once its shut, you dont notice its on. Easy to go through a set of batteries per day in this way... And (2), the on/off button is too easily pressed. I pulled it out of my purse to find the light on, when I know I shut it off. So if youll have it anywhere where it might come in contact with other things, again, watch out for battery issues... - Kandle Flex: This is the one I ended up with. Again, like the other kandle, fits on the kindle like a glove. Its very compact, easy to adjust the direction of the light without disturbing the base (unlike the mighty bright or the verso clip-on), very compact, small form factor, and decent light. Because the direction of the light is adjustable, its easy to get relatively even light throughout. The only negative I have is that the light is not quite as warm as a the belkin (but I am not sure its doable with watch batteries), and is a touch weaker than Id like, again, I think because they use watch batteries. In exchange, you get a very nice, light, compact form factor. So, while not perfect, it is, in my opinion, the clear winner in this lot, and the one I ended up keeping.

I have a lot of hard cover books so I tried the kandle II on a couple of them and was surprised that it worked so well. It did not slip off the book and lit up both pages. The light was placed on the front side cover for about 180 pages and then I placed it on the back cover for the remaining 160 pages. I then tried the light on my new Kindle and it lit up the whole screen without any shadows. These tests were done in a dark walk in closet and the results were excellent. Easy on the eyes. Excellent construction and light weight. I have tried other clip on lights in the past with no good results but this one beats them all. I also attached it to the side of my laptop to light up the key board so that when I am riding in the car at night I do not need to keep the over head light on to see the key board. I will have to buy 3 more for the rest of my family as find this very handy.
