Default Cordless Anywhere Lamp
Has anyone had experience with this cordless lamp--think it's the one I've seen on TV?
http://www.google.com/product_url?q=...hl=en&sa=title

It gets 5 stars on Amazon, but from only one user. I'm wondering how long the three little batteries last? I need something beside my recliner so I can read, but not have a cord across the floor for somebody (me) to trip over.

Lots of reviews here, most of them are unhappy.

took me 6 pages of surfing the web to find it uses 3 AA batteries. I will also tell you Walmart sells a 4 pack of rechargables with the charger made by kodak for around $10!

Here's mine, 500 hours on 2 AAA (but not on the blinkin' beacon setting).

So...is that a head lamp? Is that comfortable for reading?

I was scratching my head...how come the review I looked at (on Amazon) gave it 5 stars and the one Legzz found only had two? Aha! There are two different lamps! The Cordless Anywhere Lamp and the Cordless Anywhere READING Lamp! The "Reading" one got only 2 stars.

Maybe I'll just use a flashlight.

Yes, it's far more ideal than anything else I've used, including those silly little clamp lamps that go on the book itself. It's also perfect for reading in bed as no matter your position, if you can read it, it's lighted.

Gee, campers and hikers might like them too!
