Questions & Answers

Is it possible to use this light while lying in a reclining position to read in bed? It's hard to tell from the photos. ?

As long as you are reading a book in bed, you can use it. You can feel it in your chest as it A good amount of lighting is provided.

What kind of yarn would be good to use when I am knitting ?

Without a doubt! As a present for my grandson, I made him an afghan in dark blue and dark green patchwork. It was an absolute necessity to own my Beam N Read. When you are knitting, even if you are next to a table lamp or floor lamp, neither of those light sources will shine directly on your knitting.

Could you please tell me if the light head (where the bulbs are) can be adjusted? Do you have the option to tilt it up or down? Is it flexible or fixed in one place?

A variety of ways can be taken to tilt it. While knitting, I like the light to be tilted up all the way so that it shines right on the spot where my hands are most comfortable.

What is the weight of this garment?

It is one of his favorites. You might be able to figure out the weight yourself, though, as the manufacturer can help

Selected User Reviews For Beam n Read LED 6 Hands-Free Task Light; Extra Wide and Extra Bright Light from 6 LEDs plus 2 Blue Light Blocking Relaxation Filters

This is an excellent needlework thread! Needless to say, I absolutely love it and use it for needlework
5/5

I have experimented with a number of lighting solutions over the years, some of which have worked well, but some have not These poor people mostly lived in deprived areas. Everything I could possibly want is right here Show your hands A very bright, adjustable neck strap with the ability to adjust the position is included with this kit. Although I suggest that you buy the optional power kit so that you don't have to worry about the condition of your batteries, I would suggest that you go one step further and purchase the power kit. There is only one issue I have with Beam n Read. It goes from full brightness to "why am I unable to see?" after a few seconds. Whenever the batteries start to run out, " goes very quickly. Because this would not be fair for something that has a battery, I don't count that against it when I am rating the product A power source. You can even get a six-amp power supply as an optional power kit It is important to note that I did not receive any special treatment or discount for writing this The customer service is excellent, and I am very satisfied.

The second time I have purchased a Beam n Read, and I am a huge fan! Lights like this six LED light are a dream come true
5/5

The second time I have purchased a Beam n Read, and I am a huge fan! It was an absolute lifesaver during the hurricane of this past year to have this 6 LED light. I was without electric power for 6 days during which I exclusively used this light at night around the house. My room would be illuminated with light each time I wore that around my neck. Lighting up the whole bathroom is literally going to brighten it up. Additionally, I use it every night to read in bed while lying in bed. Additionally, the batteries last for a very long time. My old one is three lights and I still have it. Usually I keep it in my emergency kit, but it works fine.

Until it broke, I loved it
4/5

A new one will be purchased, though. Several days after Thanksgiving in 2018 it broke, a couple of months after I purchased this item in June 2018. Five months ended up being the duration. My husband watches television in the dark while I crochet, so I used it nightly so I wouldn't disturb him. would have preferred a product that lasted longer and didn't break, but I can wait to buy another. haven't found anything that will work as well or better than what I have. It's good to have the red and orange covers on the lights at night to reduce the intensity during the night, which I think is a nice idea. Outside, I have used it several times while sitting around a fire pit. There were two brightness settings on it. The neck strap broke fairly early on, but because I relied on it every night, I just stitched it up and kept using it. In general I am very happy with it. I wish it lasted longer than I hope it will be the next one.

I'm in love with It is probably the best thing I have ever purchased for reading and needlework! A powerful punch is sure to be delivered by this little light! The needlework I do at night takes advantage of it
5/5

It can be used wherever you need it. It fits my neck just fine using the elastic neck strap. I'll make a new adjustable length one once the old one wears out. For the time being, I've been using it as an excuse to work on needlework while watching TV. The red lens is for hand sewing at night, when there is no other light (red lens). I can see perfectly fine in pitch darkness when using only this source of light. I had to go through several tries before the lens clicked into place We were only able to get 3 of the corners in easily, and it was difficult getting the 4th to do so, but once we got it all on, we were able to do the rest. It was a little scary at first, but I made it, so I'm sure you can do it as well! It all fits really nicely into a cell phone case I found on Amazon as well. Adding the magnifier lens is on my list to do. As long as I am not near an outlet, I use rechargeable batteries in it, but when I am plugged in I remove the batteries Currently, I'm going to have to put together another set up so that I can keep it This is what I've been looking for! Love.

It's the best out there, but it's exhausting to have to keep buying replacements when they The red light filter is what I bought this for
3/5

When you read at night, it's crucial to have a light. Last but not least, this feature can also come in handy when walking in the dark, especially in a hotel room or unfamiliar territory. I am tempted to downgrade myself to the 3 light version because I used mine on the lowest setting on the 6 light version anyway and it is For me, the 99 version makes more sense. My fourth one is on its way to me. Two of my first two have broken. As of this moment, my husband is still working. My eyes are so tired of looking at it that I can't.

I really like the light for beading projects
5/5

I have been using it for several years. A light bulb under the Beam and Read fixture stopped working today, July 22. I bought the fixture on July 10 and used it until today. Although I still think I can use the light with only five bulbs, I am very disappointed for what I paid for it. There's no reason why an ilight bulb shouldn't last for a little longer than There is no way to determine if this was just this one and it had a defective bulb, so I am not sure whether I would recommend it to a friend or buy it again. The customer service department read this review and got in touch with me. They went out of their way to fix the issue. This is a fantastic light and I do enjoy using it for up-close beading projects, as I did mention at the beginning of this review. My family and friends would be interested in this. My experience with the company and product are very positive. I am impressed by the quality of light and the service provided.

Your best bet is to try our wearable light! Since I was a child, I've used Beam 'N Read lights
5/5

Every year has been a great year, and this year will not be an It is an essential part of my daily routine. Because overhead lights trigger migraines, I don't use them and I use this light exclusively for knitting and reading. Reduce eyestrain by reducing the brightness of the screen. I am aware it uses a lot of wireless power, however six lights can take a lot of electricity, so I did not anticipate that. This is the best because you can wear it around your neck, and you do not need to clip it anywhere, and it has much better focus than those lights you put around your neck, with lights in the ends (which I have also.

It is poorly designed and will not stand up to the test of time
3/5

I had my wife use this for a little over a year until it stopped working. She is a quilter and loved it. During my investigation, I found that the hinge was broken because a wire ran through it. I'm not a fan of this design. In normal use, just the wire broke from the hinge as it is too short. In the photo, you can see a broken wire. Here's what's new I give A+ to ASF Lightware Solutions for customer service, as they sent my wife a replacement light for no cost. My rating will be bumped up if the new one holds up better, and we will assume the first one was a manufacturing error.
