RIDGEWOOD, N.J., Aug. 26 /PRNewswire/ -- As an entire
generation of baby boomers age, they begin to realize
their eyes are quicker to fatigue from everyday reading
and in many cases this is due to reading in low light
conditions that were never a problem before. The makers
of the Periscope(R) Book Light in a Book Cover(TM)
understood this reality and designed a reading light to
provide a complete solution for an aging generation of
readers.

Periscope's patented LED Book Light in a Book Cover is
easy to use and only requires three AA batteries rather
than clunky cords, wires or plugs. The bright LED book
light is stored in the spine of the book cover,
protecting the book you are reading while making it
impossible to forget the book light.
"Whether readers are reading at night or just need
additional evenly dispersed light, the LED Book Light in
a Book Cover provides a simple solution to an aging
problem," said Eric Fisherman, president of Periscope.
"As we get older, the unfortunate truth is that our eyes
strain in low light conditions. We simply refuse to
accept this limitation and have designed the Periscope(R)
Book Light in a Book Cover(TM) to provide bright even
light coverage over the entire page. Reading enjoyment
is enhanced and eye strain is reduced!"
The Periscope(R) Book Light in a Book Cover(TM) is now
available nationwide, in versions for both hard cover
and paperback books, at Barnes & Noble stores and at
barnesandnoble.com.
How bright is the idea behind Periscope?
The patented Periscope(R) Book Light in a Book Cover(TM)
eliminates all cords, clips and clutter and lets you
read what you want where you want in all types of
low-light reading environments -- while protecting your
reading privacy. These Periscope products feature a LED
book light, a book cover, and a bookmark in a single
lightweight unit. Unlike other reading lights, the
Periscope book light is always with the book you are
reading!
Readers never have to search for or carry a separate
light for the hardcover or paperback book they're
reading. Simply slip the book into the Periscope book
cover (there are separate covers for hardcover and mass
market paperback books), pull up the retractable light
that's stored in the spine of the book cover and start
reading in all low light environments! The Periscope
adjustable twin, wide-angle LED light automatically
turns on when the arm is extended and shuts off when
collapsed into the cover. What's more, because the light
is totally adjustable, readers can put the reading light
precisely where they want it for maximum reading
comfort. And, because Periscope is battery powered by
three AA batteries that deliver over 40 hours of
continuous light, there are no cords or plugs to worry
about.
The Periscope(R) paperback Book Light in a Book Cover(TM)
fits all mass market sized soft cover books and carries
a suggested retail price of $34.95. The Periscope(R)
hardcover Book Light in a Book Cover(TM) carries a
suggested retail price of only $39.95 and accommodates
best-seller hardcover, trade paperbacks, and Bibles.
Both models come with a built-in bookmark and inside
pockets to hold tickets or other travel documents. A
mini travel AC adapter is available for both models for
a suggested retail price of $14.95.
Who can benefit from a Periscope(R) Book Light in a Book
Cover(TM)? Anyone and everyone who likes to read without
interruption! Late night readers, red-eye business
travelers, campers, and virtually anyone who has ever
found himself or herself trying to read in a low light
environment -- and, of course, aging baby boomers!
