An Illuminating Idea
The Book Light is made from a solid translucent plastic body with integrated LEDs and doubles as a bookmark. You can recharge it and set the illumination intensity using touch controls. Like any polite night owl, partake in joy of reading without disturbing others.
Designer: Mikhail Stawsky

OK…I'm new to Yanko Design…love it, btw. But, how do we purchase an item such as the Book Light…I don't see it in the store. Please don't tell me these phenomenal ideas are just ideas and not marketed. Oh, man!
Shonn says
Not everything on Yanko is for sail, some are conceptual designs, some conceptual designs made reality and some are sold.

Only problem… I need it to light my book, not my face! The glare from it would drive me crazy!
And how would one mark their place in the book while charging it? Be cool if it turned off automatically when you shut the book.
ilya fridman says
Seems like a great idea, I don't think glare would be too bad at all if you turn the intensity down. (well incorporated option!)
I agree that it would be very cool for it to automatically turn off when book is closed!
If you are using LED's + a battery to power them I wonder how thick this will be? Possibly around 3-4mm?
Is that too thick to leave inside a book?
Great idea though!
Stawsky says
LEDs may be less 1 mm by thickness. I saw it. Tomorrow I`ll post at Youtube video about flat LEDs. I shoot them last summer. Stawsky
Stawsky says
this unit is for lighting a glass self. LEDs by itself very thin up to 1 mm http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCSL3wjgC1c

Ha, did you see that? Book on the picture written in Russian language
Glad to see it
Stawsky says
Yes
My favorite Terry Pratchett
rorschach says
just wear a headlight for night reading, you can even angle the lightsource on some models. this requires no gadgets to be attached to the book which ultimately get in the way.

I think this gadget will be useful though of course it's more useful for example while travel in a train or something. Anyway it's nice.
