The LightShield® is designed to protect most models of tablets from glare from the sun or internal lighting, as well as from overheating from direct sunlight. It offers protection from the rain in the same way as a WeatherWriter®. It gives the user privacy, making it easier to view confidential information in public places. It is small enough to fit in a briefcase and can be used instead of a tablet case as it is fully padded and reinforced, offering protection to any tablet stored inside it.


The LightShield® has three areas that are worth describing in greater detail. Internally the tablet sits on an elevation board that lies flat when the LightShield® is closed but automatically elevates when the LightShield® is opened, giving the user a comfortable viewing angle for their tablet. This elevation board has a special grip surface, ensuring the tablet is securely held. We have also built in additional glare protection with our sun visor which flips out at the top to increase the overhang (and thus shade) for very bright days. In the closed position, the sun visor also reinforces the case, offering further protection against bumps. The base of the LightShield® contains a hand-hold, allowing the user to have an ultra-secure hold when using the LightShield® on the move.


Why choose the LightShield?



Internal dimensions - please use these to decide which size to buy

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The LightShield is designed to be held either by your arm, or on a table or lap. The tablet is held internally by a special grip pad which stops it slipping. It will not stop it falling out if the LightShield is tipped up (i.e. you can't wave it above your head and expect it to stay put!). We looked at adding a clamp system but it adds bulk and reduces the numbers of models it can apply to as the clamp system inevitably overlaps some buttons on some models.
