    It’s called a kobo aura one and it’s glorious. Bought the new oasis and returned it since I still prefer the kobo.

    Yes please. Kobo has some e-readers that adjust orange levels for night time reading, but I'm pretty deep in the Amazon ecosystem.

    Hmmm. I may have to check that out, because it’s exactly what I’m looking for.

    You can select colour temperature on the Kobo, or it's fixed at a warmer temp?

    I've got an Aura HD which is great but is still too bright+bluish. And want the H2O version for reading in the bathtub :)

    Edit: Checked, manual colour temp selection. I need one.

    Check the Kobo models that have Comfort Light Pro. Yes, you can change orange balance to just the right temp for your reading condition (or let it auto adjust). I know the Aura One and H20 Edition 2 have it, maybe other models too.

    Well. Time to retire the kindle voyage after a few years of use.

    @Mystic I may be mistaken but I believe that the program Calibre can strip DRM from Kindle books so you can load them onto other e-readers. I actually use a Kindle Voyage myself so don’t need to strip DRM so apologies if my info is incorrect (although Calibre is still an amazing ebook organizing program).

    I have the Aura One, yes you can adjust the temperature.

    Doesn't handle PDFs well even with 7.8" though if you're looking for a PDF viewer.

    Calibre itself doesn't do the DRM removal, you need a plug in for that.

    Hmm, that Aura H20 2 looks awesome. Maybe time to finally get a new ereader. Still have both the original Kindle and Nook, though I usually just use my phone now since it has a decent blue light filter built in.

    I forgot, the new Nook also has an adjustable orange temp and is a bit cheaper than the Kobo.

    That Kobo Aura One looks pretty enticing. Waterproof with no port covers, 300 PPI, and light temp adjust.
