The BON CHARGE Blue Light Blocking Clip Light, currently on sale for £14.99 (down from £19.99), has been hailed as a 'godsend' by bookworms who want to read in bed without disturbing their partner. The gadget emits pure red light, free from blue and green wavelengths that can disrupt natural sleep patterns, according to the brand.
Product Features and Benefits
The clip-on design allows easy attachment to books, e-readers, headboards, and more. BON CHARGE says the 'soothing glow' eliminates eye fatigue and distractions, preventing strain. The light is designed to let users read after dark without disrupting their circadian rhythm.
Customer Reviews
The product has an impressive overall review score of 4.96 out of five stars on the retailer's website. One customer wrote: 'Great product. This product has been perfect for my girlfriend who likes to read at night. I couldn’t fall asleep next to her because her other light was too bright. This makes both of us happy. I might get another one for myself.'
Another reviewer commented: 'The red light book light allows me to read without the overstimulation of traditional book lights. I feel I can get back to sleep faster.' A third user said: 'This is a great product that allows me to read in bed at night without disrupting my circadian rhythm or my partner.'
Family-Friendly Use
One customer noted its suitability for families: 'I was previously using my phone light to read in bed, it was overstimulating and kept my partner awake. Since switching to bon charge, everyone is happier. The kids love it for a bedtime story with the lights out... My partner also loves it because it doesn't disrupt him at all when he is trying to sleep.'
The user added: 'Would definitely recommend. Easy to clip on and the charge lasts ages before needing to recharge. I also like the three settings on it.'
Alternative Options
For those seeking alternatives, Dunelm offers the Imi Metal Adjustable Clip-On Task Table Lamp for £12, though it lacks the blue light blocking feature. Amazon sells the Kids Reading Light Clip On Bed for £13.99, which features flicker-free technology to reduce eye strain.
Overall Satisfaction
Despite one reviewer deducting a star for brightness, stating 'it would not be bright enough if not that close to the book pages,' others remain highly satisfied. One user raved: 'The blue light blocking clip light has been a godsend. I can turn it on in the middle of the night and read without bothering my husband. When I am sleepy I can fall right back to sleep.' Another added: 'For those bookworms like me, you cannot do without a blue light blocking clip light! I even have spare ones, so calming and relaxing!'
