Beam N Read LED 3 Hands Free Travel Book Light with 3 Bright LEDs; Batteries Included Last Extra Long 120 Hours
Cheap Beam N Read LED 3 Hands Free Travel Book Light with 3 Bright LEDs; Batteries Included Last Extra Long 120 Hours Review
I have used Beam N Reads for years. I started using the Beam N Read to check on my infant children, change diapers, check on a feeding tube, etc. without needing to turn on the overhead light. When the other children were sleeping I did not want to wake them. Years later, on Halloween it was a big help finding items the kids dropped out of the stroller in the dark shadows. I could keep one hand on the stroller and the other was free to pick stuff up. The kids are older now but one recent night after they were in bed with the lights out, I used a Beam N Read with the red filter attached to apply some ointment to one of the children. When finished I turned the light out and could immediately see in the darkened room. No night blindness that would have occurred if I hadn't put the filter over the bright white light. During the occasional blackout, I can walk around the house with both hands free. I've used it when looking for papers in storage boxes in the unfinished storage space under the house - especially in spaces the overhead light doesn't reach. It's been very useful.

Cheap Lightwave LW-TEC2000-SLV Tec2000 4-LED Flashlight Review
I haven't used any other LED flashlights before, so I cannot give you an aficionado's opinion, but I will say that I love it. It lasts for many times longer that a regular flashlight on 3 AA's, which aren't included for some reason.
The main reason you would buy this flashlight is as a reading light. It is not, in my opinion, powerful enough for many outdoor purposes, but for reading, it's perfect. And the light itself is different from that of a bulb flashlight: In a bulb flashlight, you have an adjustable ring of light, but however you adjust it, there will be parts of the ring of light that comes out that you are always going to want to keep focused on the words you're reading. In this flashlight, a diffuse glow lights up the whole page, and it is so much easier and comfortable. And don't get me wrong when I say it's not as bright as a regular bulb; it not that much of a difference, unless you're outside, partially because the beam is not as focused, so it won't illuminate something very far away. But this can also have a survival aspect to it, as it lasts for so long. One minor downside: the light more of a blueish tinge than I'm used to. Regular flashlights have a yellow tinge. But it's well worth it, in my opinion.
