LEPOWER Led Clip on Light, 5W Reading Lights for Books in Bed with Gooseneck, Adjustable Color Temperature Clip Lamp, Ideal for Bedtime Reading and Piano Light, Metal, White

I purchased this light over three years ago and it has stood the test of time. It is super convenient with its firm clamp that allows you to place it where standard lamps would not stay. The clamp is wrapped and padded to protect whatever you attach it to.All the features of the lamp work great. Two color tone settings, two brightness settings (and an off position). Color and brightness switches are tactile and separate. The choices the creators made for these LED colors and brightnesses work great in my opinion.On the topic of flickering, it does not flicker unless the power cord, specifically the USB-A port, is fiddled with. Even moving it a lot, the flicker is very minor. Perhaps the manufacturer fixed this issue since 2022. But for me, it is not an issue at all.The lamp’s light diffuses well to spread it and prevent glare. It does give off slight warmth on high brightness. The lamp can be powered by any standard USB-A port (I believe 5V 1A).Overall, I think it was a great purchase; would recommend if you want a practice and versatile lamp that will last and work well. I am leaving this review now because I am buying a second one to have two; one at desk, one at bed.

This clip on light is absolutely perfect for my diamond art project's! It clamps onto any size desk or table, it's long neck bends any way I need it to, it has both options for yellow and white light, with a dimmer/brighter switch for multiple brightness levels, and at this price point it's a steal!!! I had my first one for 3 years, using it every day for up to 7 hours, before it gave out, I considered that to be adequate, so I bought the same one again and this long, thin, LED light is my favorite I've tried so far (I've tried several different lamps) it's really easy to use, the clamp on the edge of your work space takes up little to no room, the movable neck makes it easy to put the lamp exactly where you want it, and when on its brightest setting in the white light is very strong, which I need it to be, to see all the tiny symbols on the canvas, and all the teeny tiny little diamonds in their little trays!! It's very compact, and light, and very functional, and very good quality!! I'll buy it a third time, if I burn this one out too!! Lol at this price and all it's many great features who wouldn't!! Lol highly recommend!!

This is clipped to the side of the mirror on my girls "desk". The pics are on the more natural light color setting, think warm frosted, incandescent bulb. We like it better than the more blueish setting which seems more Doctors office appropriate. It's bright enough to use a desk light for normal type desk duties. I'd guess around 40 watts on Hi 10 on low. I use it as a night light when I'm not in the room but will be walking thru. It puts out more than a reg wall plug night light (generally 4 watts here) on low. The clip will fit a 2x4 if you have to, but what are you doing anyway? It's adequate for most applications although any substantial bump or something will move or dislodge it. It's easy to bend into he position you want, about what you'd expect from a metal bendy lamp tube. The switches are a bit wacky. They don't operate like you think they should, but they work fine. It will make sense when you use it. Switch box is about 18 inches from the clip and there's ample cord to the plug under a desk.I like this lamp. Works As expected and I'd buy it again if I needed one. It arrived on time and the package was unharmed. 4 stars because it's still new and I've no idea of longevity yet. 10/5/18

This clip-on light helped with a problem which was increasing visibility of a small calculator display which I use for chemistry exams, homeworks, etc. The LCD display is sensitive to light angle, if not correct, it is hard to read. It seems to need a diffuse overhead light preferably - my desk has lighting coming in from low angles, making the calculator display darkened.This clip-on light does a good job of lighting the work area in front of me including the calculator. The long light bar keeps the light diffuse to prevent hot-spot glare off the calculator.However, it is not an ideal solution for me. This light is bright enough if you clip it on the desk and position the light about a foot over your work, so it is below your vision in front of you, blocking some of the work surface. I'm okay with it for my use, it is just out of the way to not block the keyboard or my worksheets, but it is right there in front of me. I would prefer to, say, clip it on my monitor or some higher place to get it above head level. However, it frankly is not bright enough for that. Your surface would be marginally lit enough with just the light alone at a high level. Another thing is that the light bar actually gets quite warm and gives off a fair amount of heat, even though I measured the wattage at the power module as 7.5 watts. Fine on cold days, but my office gets very warm in the summer and the heat is noticeable from this lamp. Again, if it were bright enough and had a long enough neck to position it above your head the heat would rise and probably not be noticeable. Another con is that there is no swivel action of the light bar on the neck, you have to basically twist the whole neck if you need to angle the light, which doesn't feel safe.The pros are the fairly even lighting and the extra lighting modes, including a dim setting and a warm color setting, and the general lightness making it easier to move from place to place and squeeze into tight spaces. The control switch is on the cord, about a foot down from the clip, so you need to position that accordingly. There is a power module that plugs into the wall outlet thin enough to not block adjacent outlets on a power strip but might block a lower outlet on a square outlet extender. The cord is about 5 feet long, okay but not super generous.Overall it solves my problem and is fairly reasonably priced, so I give it 5 stars. I will say that I built a small LED light with 4 LEDs that is about as bright and lower power and almost no heat, but it is not as diffuse so this bar light seems best for now. I probably would prefer a similar design to this but with double the gooseneck length, brighter light, and longer light bar.
