Save $5 on Kindle reading lights (KSO)

This offer is only for those with a Kindle with Special Offers:

Save $5 on Kindle reading lights at Amazon.com

Click on offer, then click on the link on the offer page to receive an email with the promotion code. Sign-up for this offer expires on August 12.

You'll get an email (right away), a link to the Special Offer page and a promotion code to enter at checkout. Once you have the promotional code, you have until September 12 to complete your purchase. Like previous offers, this one requires you to use the full checkout process in order to enter your promotional code. Also, like all Amazon sales that use promotional codes, if you have a gift card balance, you must use it for the payment (if there is not a sufficient balance, then you can pick which credit card or other payment to use).

This offer can be used more than once per account, so long as you have more than one KSO registered. Just click on the ad on each device to receive the individual promotion codes via email.

If you don't use a lighted cover, the one accessory that you definitely need is a reading light, at least now and then. My favorite clip on reading light is the Mighty Bright that I picked up a few years ago (it is tremendously brighter than the ones I'd had before). Looking thru the ones available now, I may pick up upgraded version, the Mighty Bright XtraFlex2 Clip-On Light. It does look like it may be a bit heavy (it uses two AAA batteries), but there is a lighter version, the Mighty Bright MiniFlex Clip-On Reading Light for Kindle and one from another company that even comes in colors (graphite, white, turquoise and red!), the Verso Clip-On Reading Light for Kindle.

Updated to add: I just saw a video review of the Belkin Clip-On Reading Light for Kindle (white; also available in black) and I may get one of those, instead. Looks quite bright, uses AAA batteries and has three Super LED's, plus the front section is small enough to use on a naked kindle without obscuring the screen, as some of the others do (note that if you have a case, you can clip to it, behind the Kindle, so the clip length in front isn't as big an issue).
