I have a $300 lightweight table for professional use, but I was looking for something slim for travel. First of all, I'm a professional artist, so I learned how to draw in low light and how to use a light table long before college, and graduated a long time ago. In low or natural light, this chart will help you easily see your lines and lightly stroke them before drawing. It is convenient that there are guides (in centimeters). Of course, in artificial light, it's a bit more difficult to see your lines, but you can check that your drawing is correct, like this. This is how I use my $300 light table and this light pad is very good even if you are used to a more complex device. It's as thin as a clipboard and with the addition of a small clip it's perfect for this purpose. You can of course also use some tape to hold the paper in place if you need it. but I found that a regular paperclip works fine. Since it doesn't get hot I can even set it to the lowest setting and take little notes with it when they come to my bedside. It's not portable, but since it has USB I can easily plug it into a portable power source so I can use it on the go. It's a nice little thing and does everything I hoped it would. I hope this helps any artist like me who wanted something small to help them with character designs or comics. You can also transfer the sketch to the final work on something as thick as Bristol, or draw cardboard on paper that doesn't bleed. If you have a lot of problems, there are marker paper which is very thin and alcohol markers like Prisma or Copic, don't ooze through to do your final work when you have sketched in a thick drawing. Some other complaints I've read: I wouldn't advise chasing something printed on a 2-page magazine. Just scan it, run a filter to find the outlines and print it out and you can trace it.
