maybe an electronic reader? the main reason I like those is I don't need a separate light since the iphone/ipad has built in light and I can read my books late into the night, but if there is no activity from me for a while (like no turning of the pages), it shuts off itself. I can remember using a flashlight for a while as a kid, and then when my parents finally just let me read, I had fallen asleep many nights with the lights on because I got too tired to remember to turn them off (I suspect my parents have turned off my light for me too in the middle of the night when they found me asleep with the lights on).
