No more blinding, leaking lights! Make your reading downtime awesome with even lights in the dark

Story

Existing book lights directly target the page of the book and fail to evenly distribute the illumination to all lines and letters. When the lights hit the page, they unevenly spread in all direction with huge difference in contrast, exhausting the eyes.

LED book light in a plate form does not get the job done either. Cheap, low-quality lighting plate leaks through the edge of the frame and makes it difficult for the eyes to concentrate on the page.

We are constantly exposed to harsh lights as our eyes are fixed on various digital devices like smartphones or tablet PCs everyday. It’s common that many find it challenging to read texts on a tablet for a long time due to lights that directly hit and strain the eyes.

Meet AwesomePré®, the soft and evenly distributed book light that lets you read in superior comfort!

It’s time to move on to the next generation of high-tech lighting using the Magic Lighting Plate®. With this technology, our book light is adjustable in brightness or color temperature that suit you best. Optimize your reading environment in detail and comfortably enjoy your books even in the dark.

Our stylish metal bezel is not only a beautiful design but also serves as a concentrator to prevent light leaks out of the frame. AwesomePré® provides optimized brightness perfect for reading, which improves concentration and readability during your reading time.

Confidently take out your book light during a flight or in the car when in the dark. You no longer have to blind yourself or disturb others near you because our soft, indirect lights will only illuminate the book page.

With AwesomePré®, you have the option of enjoying both starlit nights and peaceful reading when camping. AwesomePré® solely illuminates the book so you can read comfortably and effectively, no matter how dark it is.

Compared to low-quality products or existing book lights that use a point light source, AwesomePré® emits even, uniform lights in the form of a lighting plate, optimized for reading in the dark.

Place the light-emitting surface on the book, and the device will clearly show the letters and images on the page. Thanks to the soft and subtle AwesomePré®, you can now enjoy reading as long as you wish without straining the eyes.

In addition, try using our product with an E-reader. E-readers only fulfill the purpose of a digital book and lack a backlight feature, making it strenuous to read in the dark. Even with the minimal brightness of the device, AwesomePré® will brighten up the contents on the screen and provide a comfortable reading environment.

With AwesomePré®, the user only detects the reflected illumination from the book up to 30 to 40 LUX. Imagine the comfort our product can provide considering that general lighting devices like a lamp expose the users to light intensity between 50 and 100 LUX.

Turn the dial to adjust the intensity of the lighting as needed. Find the brightness that suits your eyes but also allows you to comfortably read at the same time.

You can also freely adjust the color from warm to cool, as our color temperature ranges from 2,700K to 5,000K.

Optimize your reading experience with AwesomePré®, a personalized book light for you.

Our product is completely transparent when turned off, then strictly emits lights in one direction without any light leakage when turned on. This creation is a patented technology exclusively developed by MEMSLUX—Magic Lighting Plate®.

The secret to the transparent Magic Lighting Plate® is a 50㎛ (0.05 mm) invisible micro-emission pattern. The plate is created through sophisticated semiconductor processes. Thanks to its scratch resistance, fingerprints and other stains on the plate surface can be easily wiped off.

The light rebounds from the meticulous pattern inside the Magic Lighting Plate® and provides light uniformity to the subject, evenly distributing on the book. This creates soft, even lights from the reflected illumination and allows users to immerse themselves in reading without exhausting their eyes.

Low-quality book lights in the conventional panel form do not implement an emission pattern, directly reaching the user’s eyes and causing fatigue over time.

So choose AwesomePré®, the one and only book light product that has the ability to remain transparent and emit one-sided illumination.

Looking for a book light that carries a modern and sophisticated ambience? Enjoy our product along with your digital device, E-reader, or even as an interior prop at home.

With a touch of a classic midnight color and a luxurious metal bezel, AwesomePré® is equipped with excellent usability that comes from premium quality as well as versatility.

If you need a change of mood, use our product attached to the cradle as a subtle bed light while charging at the same time. The charging cradle naturally blends in with the surroundings due to its seamless design, so you can keep your booklight on at all times during any time of the day.

Freely use the device as a mood light lamp or a book light when reading wherever you are—from your home office, sofa in the living room, or bed! You’ll be able to fully immerse yourself in the book and ease into sleep in an instant thanks to the light that only reflects and does not directly hit the user.

High portability is also a huge plus. Light and compact, our book light is small enough to fit in a paper bag. Whether you’re on a business trip, vacation, or long travels, bring AwesomePré® with you everywhere to keep yourself company and treat yourself to some solid downtime.

For two years, we dedicated ourselves to research and development to present a high-end book light that is not only more stylish but also durable with superior performance.

Consumer feedback is very important to us. So, we paid full attention to those who frequently go on business trips via airplane and book lovers who enjoy reading at night after wrapping up the day. From their comments, the areas for improvement in the existing products were clear: insufficient lighting that was too strong or weak to read in comfort, and a lack of privacy for the user or the people nearby due to leaking lights. A bulky design that made it hard to carry it around was another downfall.

Reflecting these valuable opinions from our consumers, we’ve focused on creating a luxurious book light that is comfortable for the eyes and has increased portability. After a total of four prototypes and numerous user tests, we were delighted to find out our product provides better usability via uniform lighting, which leads to improved concentration, as well as fulfilling visual satisfaction with a sophisticated design like an Apple device.

It was not easy finding a way to process aluminum materials into a thin but sturdy book light shape while preserving sophistication in design at the same time; however, despite all the challenges, we have found a solution to make it all happen.

Optimize your precious downtime with our premium book light equipped with excellent performance, durability, and design—AwesomePré®. Launching for the first time on Indiegogo, we need your kind support to bring this vision to life!
