Review on Pieces Reading Family Portable Bookmark Lighting & Ceiling Fans for Novelty Lighting by Matthew Gomatham

Revainrating 4 out of 5

CHEAP DARKROOM READER -- BUT.

You should advertise this for the visually impaired who need direct light for easy reading. The light falling on the page is beautiful. I will keep them and use them occasionally. However, I had to laugh a little at myself for not thinking further before buying it. First, this little thing emits light, and light travels everywhere at the speed of light. So on my bed in the dark it lit up the entire ceiling. When someone is lying next to you, their face will be fully reflected off the side and ceiling. I cannot emphasize, annotate, underline. This thing is for easy reading in the dark. And then you have to flip through the pages, which means the device comes out of the book and flashes the neighbor. This is a very, very, very cheap plastic/plexiglass that I quickly found to be very easy to scratch with cleaning and use. So do not use paper towels for cleaning. He ruins it with just a napkin. Use soft microfiber or cleaning products such as wet wipes, otherwise the scratches will quickly become deep and numerous and spoil the enjoyment of reading. I have no intention of returning a pair and I will use them for reading in the living room or on my desk. .If you don't sleep alone, it's really not good for reading in bed. And if you read yourself to sleep, you'll have dead batteries in the morning.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
