Lightweight, reliable and cheap!
Lightweight, 'no-frills' lamp. I use two - each clipped to the top corner of my monitor and shine down on the keyboard. Nothing heavy so, light enough to bear their own weight and plug into a nearby USB hub for their power. There's not much that could go wrong with them and cheap enough.

Not five'stars' because the fit isn't ideal.
The inward reaching lugs (spring retention) reach is too deep so, trims aren't flush to rims. In my case, quarter of an inch protusion is evident as seen in image. Worse still, I had lost one of these due to this reason despite . Centrifugal forces at motorway speeds caused me to lose one despite a 'tie-wrap' for retention. Now, I use TWO tie-wraps per wheel just to hold them on because the integral circular springs have little effect.

Good quality but has flaws
Radio interference is unbearable if using cigar lighter socket for power.
Even 'hardwire' of 12v-5v adapter causes interference.
Cigar lighter socket is NOT a realistic option due to cable length (would hang down from mirror within main car compartment rather than discrete routing).
I avoided radio interference by direct connection to battery terminals BUT this causes the power supply to 'auto-off' once camera battery has recharged - NOT good if wanting to actually use the unit (satnav, car park absence, overnight parking monitor etc etc).
Only way to 'restart' power supply is to fit an 'interrupt' switch which must be used EVERY day!
The user manual is full of errors ranging from mode and function to grammar and even description of function.
