You get what you pay for!
This light is very affordable and, though it may not be adequate for some applications, it would really depend on what you need it for. I am a minister in South Texas and as such, officiate a lot of weddings. Here in south Texas, if you want an outside wedding, you should plan it late in the afternoon or early evening to avoid stiffling heat.<br /><br />After having several weddings in the early evening when lighting was minimal, I had difficulty reading the ceremony so I bought one of these little jewels. Problem solved! I can see where this light might not be adequate for laying in bed reading or on an airplane or in a car, where you are trying to read and yet not disturb others, if you're just reading a few pages, this book light is great. It is small enough to be inconspicuous and fits easily in your pocket.<br /><br />Other suggested applications might be reading a menu in a dimly lit restaurant or reading a playbill at the theater. Since it also fits easily in a pocket or purse, it could also double as a key light.
