Ease of use: So Easy, Grandma can use

Review:
We've seen a couple of different USB lights over the years, and this one is no exception. This device is basically a long flexible cord with a light on one end, and a USB plug on the other end. Plug it into a USB port, flip the switch and 'let there be light.'

What differentiates this light is two levels to give you full power (8 LEDs) or half-light (4 LEDs).

The main usage of the device is for mobile travelers who need to work on a laptop with some extra light, such as when they are on an airplane.

I've always felt that the light from the screen display would be enough in those situations, but perhaps the light is needed for other things, such as looking at the keyboard for non-touch typists, or to shine on something else, like a stack of papers.

In addition, with a little twisting, you can plug it into a powered laptop and use the light as a book-reading night light.
