Anyone know how possible it is to direct the light downward? My bed sits about a food below the surface of the table I want the litebook on.

Hey, it's light, it shines in any direction. Also, it is not heavy. you have to use it with your eyes open, so we know you will be awake. For 20 minutes you can prop it on a pillow or just hold it.

It just seems like it doesn't light up the whole page unless you keep adjusting it. Lights up the top then you adjust it to light the bottom.

It's difficult to shoot from directly above because of the light fixture, but you can get pretty close. I use museum wax to get the items at the right angle. I also loosely wrapped the light in tracing paper to minimize reflection.

The section that has the light in it can continue flipping around all of the way until it bottoms out against the other sections. For example the picture show in the ad shows the light pointing to the right as its in an almost vertical shining position. The top section could keep flipping all of the way around so as to form a triangle and be pointing off to the left in an upward direction. Hope this helps. Also, there are no mounting slots or holes to hang it on anything. I imagine you could make this thing point about anywhere you'd like with some creativity. The only negative I have is that I wish that the plug would have been placed at the other end of the base....not that big of a deal but it would have worked better for me and how I use it.

The light is more mood lighting than reading light. It would have to be extremely close to even attempt to read!

The light will easily reach. My lamp is on my nightstand, and its base is a good two feet from my pillow. The bar with the LED lights in it can be angled, and i have it tilted. It illuminates the book pages with the most beautiful white, non-glare light that you can imagine. This is the best reading lamp I ever had.

I don't think it's bright enough to read by. It's really just a nice, low light that brightens up any dark areas you may have in the room. I originally bought it exactly for that purpose but liked it so much anyway that I decided to keep it lol! Keep looking if you really want something to read by but if you want a nice, trendy looking lamp, this is a good buy =)

I think if you put the light away from bed pointing at it it will work well. The light is adjustable and can be very bright. Hope this helps.

While it is possible to angle the light down we do not recommend it for safety reasons. Some models of our lights cannot be angled down at all. As you know, halogen bulbs get very hot, angling the lights downward can magnify and concentrate the heat intensity - and so we do not recommend the light be used this way.

I tried putting mine under the bed. It still made the whole bed glow like something out of "Close Encounters of the 3rd Kind". Had to resort to black electrical tape (two layers at the brightest spots) and the danged thing still glows out of the plug sockets (but not too badly.) Why did they have to go overboard with the lighting on this thing? Nobody is impressed by green led lights anymore. They're just a PITA.

You wont need to keep moving your book, unless you place the light 2 inches from it. I have this light pointed up at the cieling as an indirect muted room light. The beam is conical therefore should be fine for book reading.

I do not see any way to get to the light. The instruction book says NOT to remove the plastic cover below the light. There is a number in the instruction book to call for customer service. Sorry no help here.

Yes you can.. you can direct the light where you want it. It is a beautiful lamp, good quality. Love the dimmer switch. You won't regret getting this lamp!

I had it montet on a table close to a wall and the wall kind of was in the way when i moved the lamp around. I think it's not a good idea to mont it direct to a wall.

I think it depends on the surfaces. The legs of one of my tables and my bookshelves glowed in low light. Depending on the surface (carpeting and walls, for example) might need total darkness.

You can dim the clock pretty significantly from the menu. If you face it away from you (and not directly at a reflective surface like a white wall) it should be very dark. (Mine is frequently blocked by the stack of books I tend to keep on my nightstand.)
