Periscope Lighted Folio for Kindle Users

I love my Kindle (yeah, I know, you’ll get tired of hearing that).  But, since it is a paper-like reader (rather than an electronic backlit reader), I need to have good lighting to read and save my frequently tired eyes.

In most case, that’s not a problem, but when traveling at night, or reading in bed, a little extra light is great.  Ever greater is when that little extra light doesn’t annoy or offend the people around me.

Periscope with Kindle The Periscope Lighted Folio features a retractable reading light, deluxe Kindle cover, notepad, and pen holder all in one complete package.  No need to hunt for a separate reading light, or worry that you’ve left it behind, when you can have a light that retracts into the spine of your cover.  It stays out of the way when you don’t need it, but easily flips up when you do.

The light needs three AA batteries (not included) or uses an adapter that can be purchased separately.

As a regular Kindle user, I’m excited to finally have a bunch of the features I need and use all rolled into one. 

This is going on my wish list!

The Periscope Lighted Folio retails for $49.95, and is available for pre-orders.

    I am writing in response to your article on the Periscope, the new backlight for the Amazon Kindle. I work for M-Edge Accessories and we have a product – the e-Luminator that is very similar to the Periscope but I believe is superior in function, quality and design.
