It may work for most people, it just didn't work for me then.
Oh No, you must have gotten a defective one. I have the Crayola one and it's very bright. I can use it outside if I wanted. It's several years old and still working great. I don't use a light box that often so it works for me. If I did a lot of tracings for my quilts I would buy the best portable one.
