▲ 25 ▼ Book light recommendations? (discuss.online) submitted 1 year ago by dresden@discuss.online to c/books@lemmy.world 19 comments fedilink hide all child comments I am looking for a nice book light that can also last me a while. I have one by energizer, and while it's not bad, battery time isn't too great for my liking. Any recommendations?

You end up having to hold the book or magazine at a slight angle. That's an issue a book light doesn't have as much. If you do buy it and don't like it, send me a DM and I'll see about buying it from you. I could always use a spare. But it has to be the Nichia warm white version. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] dresden@discuss.online [S] 2 points 11 months ago (1 child) Na, I like flashlights, have a few just laying around, fortunately stopped myself from "collecting" more before the hobby became too expensive. Having one more won't really matter, also don't have any headlamps, so one for the collection, if nothing else 😀 permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] CamelCityCalamity@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago Excellent reasoning!
