Kindle Lighted Covers

woman-reading-in-bed-with-a-kindle-lighted-coverA Kindle lighted cover does two things at once. First, it protects your Kindle reader with an attractive (often a choice of colors) case that will make it easier to carry and look better longer since it will not get banged up.

Second, your Kindle has such long battery life due to the unique paper like display that has no backlight. This feature makes reading on a Kindle very easy on the easy, except in the dark!

The solution is to combine a protective case with an efficient light that lets you read regardless of ambient lighting.

There are so many choices, here are some of the top Kindle lighted covers that we like. Pick one in your price range and whose color suits your style, you will be glad you did!

Kindle Lighted Cover Reviews

Just because a product costs more does not necessarily make it better. That said, though, the first Kindle lighted cover we take a look at is a bit pricier than the rest, but also has a very attractive Kindle case – available in a wide assortment of colors – with a built in low power consumption light to make reading in dimly lit rooms easy to do.


Kindle Lighted Cover (Fits 6″ Display, Latest Generation Kindle)

kindle-lighted-cover-available-in-selection-of-colorsThis case and light for the Amazon Kindle eReader gets exceptional, detailed reviews on Amazon’s website (see for yourself here). And notice that these are confirmed buyers of the product!

There are several positive things to note about this particular Kindle lighted cover.

First, the very elegant case is well made, comes in many colors, and folds completely back on itself making it very comfortable to hold.

Second, there are NO BATTERIES TO REPLACE! The LED light is powered from your Kindle and is not a significant drain on it.

Third, the LED light should last the life of your Kindle. Don’t worry about having to replace it.

As you will find noted in the reviews, the photos of this lighted cover do not do it justice. While the upper right area of the Kindle screen is a bit brighter, the light DOES extend down the entire extent of the screen, making the whole page easy to read.

AYL® LED Lighted Kindle Polyurethane Leather Case with Wrist Strap + Screen Protector (Cover fits Latest Kindle 3rd Generation, 6″ Display)

AYL LED Lighted Kindle Polyurethane Leather Case with Wrist Strap + Screen ProtectorThe AYL Lighted Kindle Case goes a little bit different route than the very popular case above. This really is a nice cover and also gets good reviews by those using it; and it comes at a lower price point.

One thing you will notice right away is that the LED light is really elevated and perhaps more directional.

This LED is NOT powered by the Kindle battery, the AG13 batteries it requires are provided but will need replacing. It’s best to have some spares handy.

This case also features a wrist strap, something that some people will love and others find no need for.

To us, the term “polyurethane leather” seems to be contradiction of terms, but most – not all – reviewers of the product on Amazon’s site were pleased with the quality of the product.
