Editorial Review:
Kensington Flylight Notebook USB 2.0 Light 33120 - With its small lightweight design, the Kensington FlyLight notebook light is the perfect companion for the executive or student on the go. This small, flexible gooseneck light plugs into your notebook's USB port and uses only 90 seconds per hour of your PC's battery. Eight ultra-bright LEDs light up your work, and you can use the built-in dimmer for gentle, long-lasting illumination anywhere?on a plane, in a presentation room, or while relaxing in bed.

Summary: a sweet laptop light
Comment: this flylight is perfect. if you need something to light up your keyboard so you can see the keys as you type away in the dark, this is the solution. there are complaints about the narrow beam of light. it's true, the focus of the light is a sort of spotlight and it only focuses on maybe a third of your keyboard. BUT, the spillover light from the lamps is MORE THAN ENOUGH to light up your entire keyboard EASILY. i wish the usb connection could be a bit tighter, but thats more due to the neck being able to bend whichever way you need it to AND having to hold the weight of the lamp- i dont think its a big deal. there are 3 settings for the lamp: low, high, and off. and the package says the lights will last for 100k hours and barely drains any battery while on. this thing is awesome!

Summary: Good, but a bit short of perfect.
Comment: This is an excellent USB light. Too bad it has one glaring design deficiency that keeps it from being darned close to perfect.

Eight LEDs provide an abundance of light. There's a switch allowing just four or all eight to be used. Frommy testing, I'll be using the four LED option most of the time.

This is also where the design problem comes in - and it is a significant problem.

Presumably to save a few pennies, Kensington opted not to include a reflector of any kind. At this price, unusally high for a USB keyboard lamp, Kensington certainly has the leeway to have spent the money on design and the few pennies per unit to include a reflector in the finished product.

Instead the LEDs jut straight out of the flat plastic surface. The light pattern is very hot, excessively so. The center of the light field is very bright, but also very narrow and relatively small. Even on a small netbook keyboard with the lamp fully extended, the bright light area covers only half the keyboard. Falloff of the illumination is very drastic from the center.

While there is adequate light overall, the center is lit so brightly, that the eye is fooled into thinking that the areas outside the center are dimmer than they are.

I can see why so many people complain about this. I think many overstate the issue, but at core, the complaint is valid. Kensington shortchanged itself and its customers by not including a reflector in the design. The design keeps he FlyLight from being a five-star product.

The stalk iis good. It holds the lamp in the position you set it. Everything rolls up into a compact package that will fit in practically any carrying case.

Overall, a pretty good value. Overpriced, one really poor design component, but puts out lots of light the and on/off switch is really handy.

Summary: Narrow beam but good for what I need
Comment: This USB light does illuminate just one side of the keyboard, and I'd not want to type with it in the dark. The Amazon image showing the light shining on 95% of the keyboard is exaggerating. I am giving it 5 stars because I needed a light to shine on the left side of my keyboard while I play the World of Warcraft, and this light is exactly what I was looking for. The dimmer switch does not make a lot of difference in the brightness of the lamp, but this is not a problem for me. The light does not put any glare on the monitor. I am using it with a desktop computer and I have it plugged into a USB hub on my monitor stand. This is a good lamp for my needs.

Summary: Excelente accesorio para Laptop
Comment: Me compre esta lámpara para poder usar mi MacBook de noche sin tener que prender las luces de la habitación, y me resultó una buena adquisición. La lámpara tiene buena iluminación, si bien es cierto que la lámpara enfoca la luz en un punto medio del teclado, también es cierto que sí se ilumina todo el teclado, así que cumple su función; uso hasta los momentos la mitad de los bombillos de la lámpara (trae la opcion para prender 4 u 8 bombillos), excelente adquisición.
La lámpara se ve resistente, el cable está hecho de un material duro pero a la vez flexible para colocarlo en la posición que mas convenga para el teclado
En resumen, buen adquisición, y buen accesorio para poder usar una laptop de noche en un cuarto con poca iluminación sin necesidad de tener iluminación a mayor escala. Recomendado
