Hello everyone.
I want to get back into healthy habits. This includes reading books before bed and no screen before bed.
The thing is that (for now) my partner and our child all sleep in the same bedroom. I tend to get to bed after they are already asleep and don’t want to disturb them.
What’s the best option to read in the dark that doesn’t involve blue light screen (smartphone) or high luminosity?
Are there e-readers with very very dim light that still allow comfortable reading?
Thanks for your input.
Seconding the Kobo Clara for its dim, warm light.
Also want to mention using the KOReader software instead of the stock software for it’s fantastic feature set
I’m also Kobo Clara for a couple of years now and very happy with it.
Could you maybe elaborate on your experience with KOReader? It’s the first I hear about this. Maybe the only downside to Kobo is its unresponsive software. It’s just so slow. Does this KOReader improve on that?
Its much more responsive in my experience. It supports a wide range of options, has gestures for controlling certain settings (i.e. brightness and warmness) allows position syncing with other KOReader devices (Another reader,Android App for example), browsing and downloading from OPDS catalogs and Calibre instances, Downloading saved articles from Wallabag instances.
Honestly the only thing I use the stock Kobo software for is to launch KOReader. It does everything the stock software does but better.
I should mention, you install KOReader and its dependencies on top of the regular firmware, not over it. You can use them side by side
