Great Gadgets: Kandle eBook Reader Light
Posted on January 25th, 2010
One of the major selling points for these new e-book reader devices is that they consume very little power and can last for days on end without having to be charged. That’s because they only use power to change what’s on the e-ink display and not to keep it there.
However, this also means that e-book readers typically do not have backlit displays, just like the paper books and magazines that they are meant to replace. This is fine on a nice sunny day, but what about some evening reading? You need an outside light source and that’s where the creatively named Kandle can fit the bill. That’s a great name, don’t you think?
The Kandle is a simple clip-on light that will work not only with the Amazon Kindle, but also with just about any other e-book reader device. It folds down when not in use and it makes use of cool LED lighting when it is in use.
You can find the Kandle currently on sale on Amazon.com for $25. The regular price is $40, so if you want to save $15, you’ll want to act quickly.
