★★★★☆
TLDR; Good unit; fair price; Make some improvements and you got yourself a home run
I purchased 2 for my children. They seem to like it but I thought I would share my thoughts:
PROS:
1. It does not weight much which is great;
2. LED light is fairly bright;
IMPROVEMENT SUGGESTIONS:
1. Make the clip wider and taller so it is more stable when clipped onto a book;
2. It has an USB plug and jack but the connection to the light is RJ9? Why not use a micro USB connector on the lighting unit so if I lose this cable, I can still recharge using micro USB cable from a phone?
3. The light casts a bluish light; I would have preferred a natural, warmer light that is not so harsh on eyes;
4. There aren't much differences between low and high light settings; I would like to see the low lighting to go lower to maximize battery time;
5. When the charging cord is plugged into the light AND the plug (but not plugged into a wall outlet), the indicator light on the plug stays on which probably will drain the battery from the lighting unit;
TLDR; Good unit; fair price; Make some improvements and you got yourself a home run
