Tools and Hardware Reviews of SE 20 LED Silver Lamp LightCustomer Review: Ok for 10 Bucks, but the Hook . . . . Summary: 3 Stars
On one hand you're getting a portable emergency light source for [...]. The LEDs should last a long time. The kicker for me was the hook. I wanted to use the lamp hooked above the grill while outdoors grilling. What got me was the hook itself -- plastic, the kind that if you gave it a little twist it would break. They should either use a better grade of plastic or metal. The rest of the lamp is plastic for the most part. But the hook is the Achilles heel. Also, if you drop it, and if the top of the lamp hits, that would probably be the end of it. I don't plan on testing that theory. The base is fairly sturdy. The light seems good, and you can switch between 10 and 20 LEDs. But for the flimsy, silly hook, I would have given it four stars due to the price and its features. Note: the 3 batteries (D) not included.
Customer Review: So cool I bought another one Summary: 5 Stars
I got one of these and really, really liked it. 20 LED's put out a lot of light, but you can choose to use 10 or 20. It takes 3 D batteries so it goes a long time between battery replacement. It's like a really bright flashlight and small enough to carry around the house easily but a lamp that would stand alone with a gooseneck, which I really needed because I do a lot of crossword puzzles and need a lot of light to read. Then I sat on it. Oops. I immediately went to Amazon and found two sources to get another one, counting cost and S&H variations, they ended up costing the same amount. I ordered, got it in three days, and I'm still in love with it. Best portable light source I own.
Customer Review: A Very Practical Little Lamp Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this on a whim to use during power outages, which are common enough here in Maine. Recently I started having back problems and found I could only sleep comfortably on the couch. But getting up off that couch to turn off the lights after reading is agony, so I started using this little light. It's unpretentious but extremely practical. Its ratcheting head throws a good reading beam right where you want it, and the D batteries last forever (maybe 50 hours of bedtime reading so far on the first set), and their weight gives it good stability. Makes me wonder why so many modern gizmos use those foolish little AA cells that cost a mint and last a minute.
Customer Review: Inadequate as reading lamp Summary: 3 Stars
I thought from the picture that this would be ideal as a reading lamp during power outages (which are frequent here). I certainly did not expect it to provide the type of light that a desk lamp provides, but I expected to set it on a chair-side table and use it for reading for limited periods of time. Unfortunately, the neck is so short that there is no way to angle it correctly for reading unless it is placed on a tall table beside the chair. A long goose-neck support would be much more useful. On the plus side, it is stable and does not fall over easily.
Customer Review: Meets My Needs Summary: 4 Stars
I got this lamp to supplement inaedquate cafeteria lighting during my working weekends. I like to read while eating and the minimal lighting provided at my facility during what are off-hours for most just won't do. The 20 LEDs don't provide lighting that's as evenly distributed as a single incandescent or fluorescent bulb would provide; for that reason it's not ideal for reading, but it is tolerable, and the compact size, light weight, cord-free convenience, and affordable cost combine to make me well-satisfied with this item.
