How long is the battery life on a reading lamp?

This depends heavily on the type of lamp you own. Smaller lights often have shorter battery lives due to having less space to house batteries. Many lights will fall within the range of 10 to 50 hours of continuous lighting before dying, with different means of repowering them after that. While some will be equipped with USB connections to recharge from your computers ports, others will take batteries (typically a lithium-button battery or other small-grade options). Additionally, bulbs may burn out over time, too.
