Review (4/5): So far so good.
I actually say this product at an art store and snapped it up because I desperately needed something like it. I kind of wish it had an AC option in addition to the batteries but nice otherwise. Regarding the battery issue reported by one reviewer: I was being cheap and picked up 2 different packs of cheap AAA batteries -- one was half the price of the other. The super cheap ones were labeled "for low drain devices" and did not work in this light. The other pack was labeled "for high drain devices" and worked just fine. So if your new batteries don't work, try new ones from a totally different brand and check the mdg. date.
