I am looking for a nice book light that can also last me a while. I have one by energizer, and while it's not bad, battery time isn't too great for my liking.

Any recommendations?

Light is a direct consequence of energy. So the more LEDS, the less time you’ll get from the battery, but one led can also be brighter than a dozen, so that doesn’t tell you much either.

If you want bright and lots of light, you’re always gonna be having battery issues.

I'm fine with charging them regularly. It's just kinda... shortsighted they all use the same-ish type of battery instead of a larger one (hence offering more energy). The few added grams would not be an issue, at least not for me.
