 Inexpensive and effective June 16, 2009

I have the same problem as another reviewer with my HP laptop and its metallic keyboard. It makes it difficult to see those keys in anything less than direct light.
Enter this LED lamp.
The light is small but does the trick. The arm/cord is flexible allowing for any angle you want, and is stiff enough that it stays in place. When you're not using it, coil it up and it takes up very little space.
The best feature is the price!
Small, light, easy to use & inexpensive? You're kidding right? March 19, 2009

This inexpensive accessory is essential for anyone who travels with a notebook computer. Plug it in, adjust the gooseneck (which is a good length) and light up your keyboard.
There are a number of lights like this and they all probably do the same thing. This one was nicely packaged, looks fine and works.

Nice "White" LED Light July 1, 2009

I have been wanting to get a compact USB powered LED light for some time but the products I have seen were all a little to blue for my liking for blue is a color that as one gets older becomes more difficult for your eyes to focus. Hence, I was in search of a nice "white" LED light (see photo) and have found it.
If you are a road warrior sitting on the redeye flight and not wanting to be anti social by turning on your overhead light, then this small LED light is the solution. If you like to work at night and do not want to use that hot overhead or desk light in the summer to light your keyboard or note pad, then this temperature cool solution is a MUST HAVE.
The metal goose neck is nice and stays in place when flexed into position (see photo). I really dislike metal goose necks that sage after positioning and this neck behaves well by saying put after placement. If you have a loose fitting or worn USB port, you may want to lean the light forward some to counter balance the weight of the neck.
When coiled flat, the LED light is easy to pack and takes up very little space in the brief case.
As a side note, this light does not project over a large area for to do so would cause the light intensity to drop rapidly and require a more power hungry LED. I estimate the usable projected light cone to be a solid angle of ~25-30 degrees (see photo).
Additional Comments: I purchased this LED light for $5.00 (Summer 2009) shipping included. At the current asking price of $1.50 plus $2.99 shipping (Jun 2010), I feel this item has an even better "price to value" ratio.
The Perfect Dark Solution- No More Typing Error! July 16, 2009

From time to time I had to do work with my laptop until the wee hours & my wife would get upset most of the time as she would not able to sleep properly as I was using the room main light or even a small table/study light it was still too bright, thus affecting her sleep.
Good thing I found this laptop USB light. It's a perfect solution for my problem. Now I can work on util very late at night without worrying about my wife's sleep. It's a great device for a small pric eto pay. It's very light & easy to carry around or store in my laptop bag.
Regarding the bright single beam...I did a bit of adjustment to the flexible neck at an angle that would give me the best result for my overall keyboard. It's not perfect but I'm not nitpicking. The device serves its purpose well.
