Anyone who has ever found themselves trying to read at night, without disturbing people around them, will want to check out the world’s first integrated LED book light in a book cover. The new patented Periscope book light in a book cover debuted at Barnes & Noble earlier this month, making life easier for all late night readers, campers, and red-eye business travelers.

Suitable for both paperbacks and hardcover books, the Periscope book light in a book cover puts the light where you want it and lets you read without trouble in all low-light reading environments. The practical book cover protects the reader’s privacy and provides you with a LED book light and a built-in bookmark in a single lightweight unit.    

After testing the Periscope book light in a book cover for hours, I’d say it’s very neat and easy to use. Simply insert the front and rear covers of your book into the cover pockets. Grip the gray ridged sides of the light reflector and pull straight up to extend the arm and automatically turn on the light. Pivot the arm towards you and tilt the reflector in towards the book about 45 degrees. Because the light is completely adjustable, you can put the light exactly where you want if for ultimate reading comfort. Both Periscope models also come with inside pockets to hold tickets or any other important travel documents.

When you’re finished, turn off the light by straightening the reflector, lift the arm and press it straight down so it locks into its stored position. Thanks to Periscope’s three AA batteries that deliver more than 40 hours of non-stop light, you don’t need to worry about plugs or cords.

The Periscope book light in a book cover comes with a retail price of only $39.95.  A mini travel AC adapter is available for $14.95. Visit your nearest Barnes & Noble or www.periscopelight.com for more information about Periscope products.
