Best Book Lights for Comfortable Reading

If you need an ultra-powerful lamp for illuminating quite large areas, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better option than this. As you've probably noticed, the Vekkia BH-01 is designed with two gooseneck arms that can light two large pages of notes, two full pages of any-sized books, different craft projects, and many more. Actually, it's capable of illuminating 3x broader areas compared to normal LEDs, and since the lamp has two flexible arms rather than one, it allows you to focus light exactly where you want. Even better, each unit can be controlled independently, allowing you to set different brightness levels.

The lamp has 12 LEDs in total that provide 2 brightness levels with no ability to set color temperature. It emits only 3000K warm light that is considered to be easy on eyes and is especially great for kids who often read in the dark. Additionally, it's fitted with diffusor optical lenses that provide very soft light and don't disturb people around you.

Speaking about the design, the base is wide enough for clipping either on a book or on a bedside drawer (if you want the light to be more stationary). Also, it can stand on its own, but in this case, it won't be very stable and may even topple. The lamp works best when clipped to something. And to protect your books from scratches, it's made with soft foam pads.

The LED Clip by Raniaco is an incredibly smart reading light. It has a versatile design with a clamp that can be opened up to 2.36 inches. Therefore, it can be easily clipped not only to a book but also to your laptop or even the headboard of your bed. Its neck is very flexible and can be bent up and down as well as rotated up to 360 degrees to let you direct the light exactly where you need it. Also, you can use the clamp as a stand. Thanks to the anti-slip silicone pad, it will sit perfectly on your desk or any other flat surface.

The lamp offers 3 brightness levels for different needs - Soft, Bright and Strong. However, the best part is that you can adjust the light just by touching the base. On the lowest setting, it's dim yet bright enough to let you read at night without influencing your partner's sleep. The light is very natural and gentle on eyes. The lamp has a built-in 1000mAh lithium battery and can work up to 24 hours in a dim setting, 12 hours in medium mode, and 6 hours in the brightest mode. The lamp is supplied with a USB charging cord and gets charged in 12 hours. Once the battery is full, the red safety charging indicator light turns off. The lamp looks nice and very stylish. It's offered in classic White and Black colors and suitable both for home and office use.

In case you're a book enthusiast looking for a simple reading lamp, you may like the PERFECTDAY light. It's a frills-free option that comes at a very attractive price tag but can provide bookworms with everything they need for comfortable reading.

To begin with, the lamp seems to be very robust and will surely last you for a good while. It's made from sturdy ABS material and 12 LED eye-friendly lights that have a quite long lifespan. With that, it looks sleek and can light up two standard-sized book pages really well. It's not blueish or too harsh like most other LEDs within its price bracket. It has three power settings (2700K, 3000K, 4000K) and can provide you with warm white light, soft white glow, and daylight glow correspondingly. With that, the light is non-flicker and won't disturb your partner sleeping next to you.

Also, we would like to emphasize that the lamp has a capacious built-in 1000 mAh Li-ion battery that provides a whopping 60 hours of cordless use. As a nice touch, it has a handy indicator light that glows red when the battery is charging and turns green once it's full.

When it comes to flexibility, this lamp is perfect for clipping onto books of any shape and weight. It's not heavy and has a 360-degree head to let you direct the light right where you need it. Overall, this is a nice adaptable lamp that is great for creating the perfect ambiance. It has no extras but does its main job as expected.

The CeSunlight Rechargeable LED Book Light has quite a lot going for it, but the biggest one of its advantages would be its versatility allowing you to use this light not only for illuminating your book in the dark but also as a handy little torch when hiking, walking, jogging or even doing some repairing jobs at night. The LED's are located on two arms of the book light and can operate independently from each other. They have 4 brightness levels that can be switched by clicking repeatedly a push-button on each side: the first click triggers floodlight, the second one switches on spotlight, the third one activates them both, and the fourth one turns the light off.

With tech specs out of the way, let's move to convenience features and design of this book light. The model we have on hands is very flexible and bendy. You can hang it around your neck and enjoy hands-free illumination. Also, you can customize it as a headlamp and wear over your ball cap when you need to work in the dark, for example. It will stay put after you adjust it in the way you need. Additionally, the light can even stand up and double as a small table lamp.

It uses a rechargeable 700m lithium battery that lasts up to 10 hours and needs only 3 hours to get fully charged. So, you won't waste money on buying batteries. At just 3 ounces, the item is lightweight, compact, and well-made. The flexible arms are manufactured from steel alloy and covered with soft silicone.

All in all, if you need a hands-free light to illuminate your book as you're reading, your feet as you're jogging, or your hands as you're walking, the CeSunlight Rechargeable is a sensible choice.

What we have here is a unique product that can make your sleep deeper and more restful. What makes the Hooga Book Light so special is its ability to give off a gentle, amber hue light rather than typical blue or white, among other things. So, if you're quite sensitive to those kinds of lights, the Hooga Book lamp can become a real gamechanger for you.

The amber light is 99.94% free of blue spectrum light, which results in better production of melatonin and reducing eye strain. A lack of blue light also helps your melanopsin receptors to send a signal to the brain so that it knows it's time to prepare for sleep. 

This amber lamp is very calming on eyes and offers three brightness settings (25%, 50% and 100%) for variable brightness levels. The lowest level is perfect when you’re trying to read to fall asleep; the brighter light is great for keeping your attention to continue reading; the highest setting is a good choice for those times when you need to concentrate on something.

Besides being sleep-friendly, the Hooga light is also quite lightweight and portable. It has a clip-on design and weighs only 2.5 oz. Plus, a high-capacity 1200mAh lithium-ion battery lasts an impressively long time and charges very quickly, which makes it an ideal option for travels.
