Lightpad Light Box

Nice size for small artwork. The power button goes off a little too easy, but it is great for changing brightness. I would have liked battery backup. It was very nice to have a cloth bag to store it in, but it is a little flimsy with no way to seal the opening (button or velcro or zipper) and no handle, so for the price I think it would be more substantial. Still I am glad to have it to protect the surface. In general it works well, cord is long enough for my use and quality is good.

I haven't used it very much yet, but after testing it, I was truly happy with the results. I am convinced it will be awesome! I love the size and the fact that it is so compact. It is perfect for my needs. I have ordered the case and the lithium battery charger also. Received the case, but still waiting for the battery. Thank you!

Provides a very bright and even light that makes tracing easy. I purchased it primarily to help my kids with learning to write (eventually) where you can place sheets of letters on the unit and any old paper (no special paper needed) on top and they can trace away at the letters or all sorts of shapes. You kind of need to tape them down though.5 stars because it is built like a tank for what it is, does exactly what it says it will do. I wish we got a bigger size but they get pricey.I would have been happier if there was a battery option, it can be inconvenient to need to use it only near an electrical outlet. I understand that they sell some external battery pack for use with it, but honestly there is no reason why they couldn't have added a spot for AAA batteries in the body and even if they only lasted a few hours that would have been fine.

Bought this as a gift for my daughter…I cannot wait until she sees it…we have several light boards, but this is such a great size for portability…Have not used it yet…but will let you know when we do…Christmas Day…,,,Just opened and trying to use…edges are not flush with board and the light goes off and on if edges touched.. love the brightness.

I am giving this product 4 stars because of mixed feelings after getting it.Frugal side of me tells me that I can't touch a good "photography" light box to view film at this price. The stingy side tells me but this is for tracing drawings, how hard can that be?Fashionable side of me says this has really nice brushed aluminum frames. The practical side tells me it's those cheap quality assembly that the panels don't even fit snugly (the gaps between the pad surface and the borders are all uneven).Appreciating side of me says this is a pretty cool LED illumination that's instantly on and lights up the surface evenly, the critical side noticed that when I shake it hard left to right something moves inside.Other than that, I have it on for an hour straight and it is still working with no hot spots like some others mentioned. I guess you would really notice something like that if you were copying but just for viewing I think it's fine. The back of the panel also shows minor tarnishing on the aluminum. My conclusion is I will live with it. It works and does what I need, I am not looking to show off this like an iPad, and it's not too expensive.
