As the specification for USB current draw on the power (+5V) is 500 ma, I got to wondering how much my Ritelite LPL792 light actually uses of that 500 ma available when attached to a normal USB port – I was concerned that, due to it’s brightness, it would exceed the maximum current draw spec for USB and possibly damage my computer.
So,I measured the USB current used by this light.
I hooked it up to a quality 5V power brick that is capable of producing up to 3 Amps (it is complete with ferrite noise filter sleeve) and I tested the light for function first: Bright; Dim; and Off. It worked the same as when I have it plugged into my computer’s USB port.
Then, using an accurate digital desktop multimeter, I measured the current draw – Here are the results:
Bright: 188 ma
Dim: 95 ma
Off: 0 ma
So there are no worries that this light will exceed the 500 ma maximum spec for your USB port!
I got this light from Amazon because the single LED light I had purchased at Staples just didn’t put out sufficient light to my eMachines laptop keyboard for use in a darkened room. The Ritelite LPL792 light does.
So I gave it 4 stars because it works very well (but it was slightly difficult to place it so that my hands don’t block the light while keying).

I recently treated myself to a nice 24″ Samsung LCD monitor because I was tired of the cramped 14″ monitor on my laptop, which is my main computer at home. Problem is, because I have the monitor on my desk directly behind the laptop, I have to fold the laptop monitor at about a 40 degree angle in order to not obscure the monitor, and because my desk lamp is next to the monitor, I was having trouble seeing the laptop keys.
Well, this light fixed that problem perfectly. Five seems to be just the perfect number of LEDs. Also like the on/off button and dimmer. It’s certainly an attractive looking accessory, if aesthetics is important to you. Not sure if the blue LEDs on the back of this light really reduce eyestrain as claimed, but I don’t really mind them, in fact they look kind of cool, like something from a sci-fi movie, lol.
All in all, this is way better than the single-LED USB light I got at Walmart, which cost half as much.
My only complaint/wish is that the adjustable neck is a bit too short, if it were about another 5″ longer, I would be able to position the lights directly over the center of the keyboard instead of off to one side. On the other hand, a too-long neck might make the USB connection more prone to flaking/moving. Right now the USB connection is quite secure, happy to say.
Am just keeping my fingers crossed that over time, the neck will not lose its rigidity and start flopping around…
The eight fifty shipped I paid for it was pretty reasonable. Couldn’t find this light at any of my local electronics stores for some weird reason.

I bought this in a store so I had a chance to look at it first, and it seemed good enough. Then I opened the plastic wrapper and realized it’s actually very high quality. Really handy if you need extra light by your computer. The neck bends very easily and accurately. Definitely a sweet purchase.

I bought two for my 17 inch lap top to have one on both sides and it lights it up perfectly. Great for red-eye flight use!
