Inexpensive 5 volt LED lights with USB plugs.

[Josie'slandcruiser]

I recently purchased off Amazon.com a couple inexpensive 5 volt LED lights designed to be plugged into USB ports to try out while camping. Both were about $10 each and should work fine but both are also quite different in features.

The Onite brand LED lamb is a very simple light with a bulb with hanging hook, a cord with standard USB male plug and an on/off switch. Construction looks to be good.


The E-Trends LED lamp is a bit different. The bulb has a separate hanging hook, cord has the standard USB male plug, but the on/off switch control is far more complex. You can both change the color of the lumination and its intensity with the control panel on this lamp. Construction however does not seem quite as robust as the Onite lamp.

They are awesome, I've had a few of these (Onite) for around 5 years. Never skip a beat. I have both the ones with the on/off switch and with the dimmer control. I like the dimmers better.

I recently bought the Onite, it seems OK, a dimmer would be a nice addition.
