As the ancient proverb goes: It is better to plug a single LED light into a USB port than to curse the darkness.
Stop cursing that darkness already. Next time you find yourself on the red-eye in need of better illumination for your workspace than that which the puny overhead airline light can provide, this is your solution.
Five well-directed LEDs flood your tray table and notebook with pleasing white light – without waking passengers on either side. You can also use it at your desk, when wanting low-key, indirect lighting while you’re gaming or the like. And if you need to re-connect cables in the back of your desktop PC, slip this light into one of the USB ports on it case – and bam! All the light you need to see what you’re doing back there. To summarize: Its flexible eight-inch stalk offers precise directing of light where you need it, when you need it.
You don’t have to worry about batteries, AC adapters, or electrical outlets. Find an open USB port, and you are in business. For less than 10 bucks, it’ll be hard to find a more useful, affordable, portable light. But that’s all we’re charging for this week’s DOTW.
