Amazon Kindle Case

[Vitam12]

Just buying a kindle case. There are so many to choose from. If you have one wonder if you could help with which are the best lights to use i.e. built in or purchased separately? Also would you bother with the cases that have stands - when would you use the stand? thanks for your help

[ojread2]

I have a light, and never use it
Think about it, do you ever read in the dark? Waste of money although mine came free with the case
I'd look on eBay first, over Amazon

[ojread2]

oh and no, I dont have a stand and can't think of anywhere I would use one
Maybe useful if you have trouble holding books and use a stand for paper ones already, but for the kindle? hmmm

[Vitam12]

Thanks for your help - That's what I thought about the stand, but I do read at night in the dark so would need a lighted version.

[ojread2]

lol, ok

I'd go with a clip on light myself, which is what I have and why I ordered the case I got
You can remove it very easily - it slips in between the Kindle and the case - for when you want to put it in your bag or pocket
They are very bright :)

gee, ojread2, you don't stop reading in winter just because it's got dark at 3pm :-) I turn the lights on and continue; and a light on a Kindle has the same function. And a stand can be useful - it frees your hands for knitting, mowing the lawn and so on.

Lights are handy for travelling too. You can read your book in the night without keeping the whole plane awake with your overhead light.

I read at bedtime when it's always dark, lamp on, so dont need a light, simples :)

[ojread2]

mowing the lawn?! LOL

[Vitam12]

Hi Ojread2 - what type of clip on light do you have - is it the very thin pen style to enable it to fit in the case? thanks

Mow the lawn - i'm intrigued?!!

jno also juggles and makes a 5 course meal at the same time- it's a sight to behold, it really is!

[ojread2]

LOL Boo

Yes, it's very thin, more like a book mark Vitam

Assume jno also has the wipe-clean edition boo? ;)

I read in bed: tried the clip on light first, which was hopeless - bulky, poor direction and meant hefting another bit of kit about. Went for the cover with built in light, which works a treat.

"Assume jno also has the wipe-clean edition boo? ;) "

No, don't think so, think it gets put in the dish washer

Thanks Ojread - that's really helpful

Humbersloop - Thank you - do you have a make / style you could direct me to also as would be interested to know which one you have? - thanks

[Vitam12]

Lisa - That is so funny!!!!

[friedgreentomato]

I have the case with the built in light a tad expensive at £50 but well worth it - when we go away I way very early and instead of getting bored I can now read - I often wake in the middle of the night and not get to read without disturbing the other occupent of the room - well worth it

[Vitam12]

Thanks!

[humbersloop]

Loved it divegirl :D

Agree with fgt. Pricey, and though I resent the amazon behemoth, it's well made and sturdy, as I discovered when I dropped mine.

The kindle itself isn't a cheap bit of gear really, and it's easy to forget how much money you can rack up inside it on your content, so worth looking after.
