I already have a leather case for my Kindle with a built-in light that I love but the light runs off the same battery used to power the Kindle. That being said, if you read a book a day or every two days, like I do, the Kindle charge doesn't last as long as it would without the built-in lite. Not terrible, just plug it in and you're good to go, unless an outlet isn't handy, i.e. outside, on a plane, etc. I also like to change up the colors of the Kindle cases I use and the ones without the light, are less expensive and protect the Kindle just as well. Soooo I bought this lite. Problem is these batteries don't last nearly as long as I had hoped and since it takes two, they are also costly. When it has new batteries, the light covers the entire screen beautifully. however, As they lose strength, the coverage diminishes greatly. I guess it's ok as a back-up...you decide.
