I needed a small light to see my e-reader at 4:00 in the morning when I tend to wake up.
I saw this as the perfect solution.

I removed the swan neck flex light from my lap tray table.
I used an air freshener as the base.

Drill a hole in the air freshener, pass the cables through.
Try and find a heavy metal washer attach the battery pack.
Close the base
