Neck Book Light LED Reading Lamp USB Rechargeable, Hands Free, 4 LED Bulbs, 4 Adjustable Brightness, for Reading in Bed or Reading in Car Lamp (Pink) (Black)

Over the years, I’ve had several little book lights for reading in bed. One clipped to the book with a big plastic paper clip-like clip that you put over the pages. Another had a pressure clip like a binder clip. Both had to be plugged in to an outlet with an adapter and cord to the unit. Neither was satisfactory; I used them for a few nights, then left them in a drawer. Not only did they trail power cords, but to turn the page, you had to unclip it, turn the page, then reclip it. And it made the book awkward, heavy, and off-balance.I was excited when I saw this item, however, for several reasons. One, it doesn’t need a power cord. Two, it doesn’t clip to the book. Three, it’s light and hangs around your neck, making it useful for a lot more than just reading books, although it’s wonderful for reading.Unpacking the unit from its little box, you find two items: the unit itself and a short USB charging cable. See the picture. The unit is capable of twisting itself down into quite a small little space. That illustrates how flexible this lightweight little item is. You hang it around your neck and point the lights wherever you need the light. Then you don’t need to fuss with it any more. It is very handy.It is powered by a healthy USB-rechargeable battery. Since its primary use—at my house anyway—is to read in bed before going to sleep, it’s super-easy to just plug it in when I’m ready to sleep, and it’s ready to go the next time I need it. They say it’ll run for 8 hours on a charge and will recharge in 2 hours. I haven’t tested that yet.Is it comfortable to wear? Yes. I use it to read before sleeping two or three nights a week. It’s just comfy and easy. It occurs to me, however, that its comfort for reading in bed will depend on how you use your pillows. It’s possible that the thicker housing of the battery at the back of the neck could be uncomfortable if the lower back of your neck lies flush against the pillow. Mine doesn’t, so it’s like the thing wasn’t even there except for the light it puts out.It’s not just a simple light, either. Each of the two heads contains two bulbs. There’s a tight-focused spot beam and a wide-focus flood light bulb in each head. Each head has a little button switch. One push turns on one bulb. Two pushes turns on the other bulb. The third push turns on both bulbs at once. The fourth push turns both bulbs off. You can see the little push button switch in one of the pictures. There is a switch in each of the two heads, so you need to turn each one on and off separately, which can seem a bit odd at first. But it gives you total control of where your light goes.It can be used for all sorts of applications where you need good light to do something close in. I don’t knit, crochet, or fix cars, but I do take pictures of books that I’m going to sell here on Amazon and elsewhere. I just sit at my desk and shoot simple pictures, which has always left something to be desired because the lighting was not good. Now I wear my little blue neck light and direct the light onto the item being photographed. It’s a great improvement.If I needed to wander around the house at night, I’d put it on and would be able to go anywhere comfortably. I haven’t needed that yet. I suspect that as time goes by, I will find more and more uses for this handy little gadget.

...and we still love them. We use this to walk our doggie at dusk to night especially during fall and winter time. Using this item always feels like we are having our own street light. We never really enjoyed walking at night time before we got these because I think, really don't even remember, we used to use flash light(?). But ever since we got this neck LED light, we actually enjoy walking at night time because it feels like as fun as day time vision wise. I use one and my wife use one and our doggie has his own little light by his neck(different clip type LED and loop type that goes around his neck).*I am leaving the same review for two different company's product because I believe they got exactly the same specs. We love them both equally. Blue one for me and Pink for my wife :D Happy shopping!This one has three different settings and we always use max brightness.We love flexibility of wires because you can very casually, with no effort, just let one towards doggie and one towards direction walking. Picking up poop can never be easier with these hands free spot light :)Battery wise, we never had any issue because we kinda charge randomly when we feel like charging. Never felt the light got dim or anything just charge when feels like we haven't for a long time. Otherwise we let it just hang by the door.Once you get this, you too will start enjoy walking at night and feels sorry for walkers without light or for their small flash light :D

My eyes are getting weaker as I age and I found myself needing more light, especially to read in bed. This light bends around my neck comfortably. It holds a charge for more than a week too. Well worth the investment!

Before and after photos here: the yellowed page is without the light, and the bright white page is with the light. I love it! Finally, I can read a book in my dimly lit room! It’s lightweight, comfortable, easy to bend into the angle that works best for you, and just lights up the book you’re reading! I love it! It comes with a charger cord. I haven’t had to use it yet. I just received the light, and it arrived fully charged.

Works great, uncomfortable on the neck

Bendable, easy to use for any age. Light strong for reading, looks great and charges easily.

I purchased these for crocheting specifically. When watching movies with my kids I wanted to be able to still work and this serves its purpose. These is a button on the sided to adjust the brightness. There are three brightness levels. I normally only use one side at a time... its provides that much light in my opinion. The battery last for quite a while. It comes with a rechargeable cord. Doesn't take long to charge. I ordered these in pink and it's a nice light pink. They are adjustable so you can twist them around. They really are multi dimensional. Great price for great product.

I got this for my kid so he could read in bed at night. The light is like a headlamp! Even with only one side on, it is so bright. I like the design but wish the color temperature could be adjusted like other book lights.
