Kindle Lighted Leather Cover, Black (Kindle 3G Wireless Reading Device, Free 3G + Wi-Fi, 6″ Display Kindle) Review
For me this case if perfect. Yes, it does increase the weight of the K3, and to be honest, I really hadn’t thought alot about it till I read some of the reviews here. So, the increased weight isn’t a big deal to me. But the protection of the K3 is a big deal. This is what I wanted since this is the kindle (I also have a DX) that goes in my backpack when traveling. i’ve just flown overseas and took 3 planes to get here. My backpack got put up in the overhead bins or on the floor each time. I never worried about the K3 because it was in the case. My last flight last was overnight and in the wee hours after I had slept, when the cabin was dark and while most everyone else was sleeping, I pulled my K3 out and used the light for the first time. Bingo! we have a winner. It was so nice to have the light right there in the case and not have to use the overhead light. Yes, the bottom left corner of the screen wasn’t completely covered by light but for me it didn’t distract me or hamper me in my reading at all. A few times I used my finger to move the light a little bit to help, it wasn’t that I needed the light down on the screen but just wanted to see if it would make a difference. It did help, but like I said, not having that part of the screen fully lighted didn’t hamper me a bit. The only negative aspect of the light is that it is a bit difficult to pull out from the cover, for which I deducted one star for. Maybe once I use it more I’ll get the hang of how to pull it out easier. The cover itself is study and I do like that it feels like a paperback in my hand. I have a M-edge case for my DX that flips up and I’m finding that I miss that aspect of the cover. Some of reviewers had mentioned the strap as not being adequate. I do agree there. It’s very loose and I’m not worried about the K3 sliding out, I just don’t want something sliding into the case when I have it in my backpack or purse. I also wish there was a place to slide papers into. I keep a excel sheet with book reading orders on it and wish I had a place to slip it into. I’m going to keep this case because I really do like it and it does fit my needs well. The Steel Blue color is nice, but I thought it would be a little bit darker.

Our new design seamlessly incorporates a reading light into the cover, so you can carry your Kindle wherever you go and always have a reading light with you. Simply pull the light out to illuminate Kindle when you need it, and slide it away to be invisible when you don’t. And since the light draws its power from Kindle, no batteries are needed. The contoured, pebble-grain leather (available in 7 different colors) keeps your Kindle safe and secure, while the soft charcoal microfiber interior protects the screen from scratches. The cover is designed to fold back, so you can read comfortably with just one hand.
The built-in, retractable LED light pulls out to illuminate Kindle, and slides away when not in use.
Never Be Without a Light Our all-new Kindle cover features an integrated, retractable LED reading light that lets you read comfortably anytime, anywhere. The high-quality LED light illuminates Kindle’s paper-like display, adding brightness without adding glare. A permanent part of the cover, the reading light is located in the top right-hand corner of the back cover. When needed, simply pull the light out and it automatically illuminates, eliminating the need for a separate power switch. To turn the light off, slide it back in to the corner of the cover. Since the light is powered by Kindle’s battery, no batteries are needed.
How It Works In addition to securing Kindle in place, our new hinge system conducts electricity from Kindle’s battery to the reading light – when Kindle is attached to the hinge, an electrical connection is formed that powers the light. The cover’s hinge points are gold-plated, to ensure a reliable electrical connection. Gold is used because of its ability to make good electrical contact even with low force, and for its corrosion resistance. Secure Your Kindle in Four Easy Steps
Reading with the cover on, you can easily access Kindle’s navigation features and power switch, while the rounded edges offer a perfect fit in your hands. The cover is designed to fold back, so you can read comfortably with just one hand. And the retractable reading light is easily accessible with the cover open or folded back. On the Go This compact cover is perfect for taking Kindle wherever you go. The sleek leather ensures the ultimate fit and protection, without adding bulk or weight. Our patent-pending hinge system secures Kindle in place, and an elastic strap keeps the cover firmly closed for maximum screen protection. Simply attach Kindle to the hinge, apply the strap, and rest assured it will stay securely in place even when you’re on the go. You’ll never be without a reading light, and since the light draws its power from Kindle, no batteries are needed.
Amazon’s official Kindle lighted cover features contoured, pebble-grain leather available in 7 different colors.
