Harry Potter™ LUMOS Book Light Receives Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Seal Award (2006)
Nantucket, MA – July 25, 2005 – The new Harry Potter™ LUMOS Book Light received the
prestigious Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Platinum Seal Award (2006) just days before its nationwide
retail debut last week. LUMOS is a new, patented book light made by LightWedge that puts all
the light only on the page, with no stray light escaping in a dark room to disturb anyone else.
Readers place LUMOS’ flat, acrylic lens directly on the page they are reading. LUMOS uses two
bright, white LED lamps that do not get hot or need to be replaced. Four AAA batteries provide
readers with 40 hours of nighttime reading. The Harry Potter LUMOS Book Light includes seven
interchangeable on/off switch covers featuring favorite Harry Potter icons such as the Golden
Snitch, Harry's owl Hedwig and Harry's wand. Soft Cases for storing the LUMOS when not in
use, embroidered with each of the Hogwarts house crests, are also available for fans.
The Harry Potter LUMOS Book Light will be popular with young readers everywhere and with
parents hoping to spread the magic of nighttime reading to their children. The new Harry Potter
LUMOS Book Light will cast a spell on Harry Potter fans of all ages.
LUMOS is available now nationwide at Barnes & Noble, Borders, Books-A-Million,
amazon.com, independent bookstores everywhere and on the company’s website at
www.lightwedge.com.
Oppenheim Toy Portfolio is the only independent guide to children's media, co-founded in 1989
by child development experts Joanne and Stephanie Oppenheim. Oppenheim Toy Portfolio
Platinum Seal Awards are given to outstanding new products that enhance the play lives of
children. The Oppenheim’s are both Contributors to NBC's Today Show. More information about
