Read Into The Night...
with this small but clever light! The nice, dark-smoked-plastic book light will stand securely on a flat surface, or hold tight to a book cover with the 4-1/2" long x 1-3/4" wide paper-clip style base. The tiny-but-bright white LED lamp has an even tinier slide switch, and an 8" long covered wire that you can bend to hold in any position. Runs on (3) included AG13 button cell batteries that work, but are reaching their shelf life, which explains why they're lighting up our life.
