Streamlight
Streamlight ClipMate USB
A metal clip and a flexible neck. That's what transforms a small light into hands-free lighting, without a headlamp or stand.
Three ways to use it
On a shirt pocket - it becomes an always-available service light.
On a cap brim - it acts as a miniature headlamp.
On a clipboard - for writing or reading in low light.
The flexible neck allows you to aim the light beam exactly where it's needed, without moving your head or hand.
Two LEDs, four modes
C4 white LED, rated for 30,000 hours
High: 70 lm, 500 cd, up to 3.5 h
Low: 40 lm, 50 cd, up to 24 h
Red LED, for night vision
High: 0.5 lm, 9 cd, up to 16 h
Low: 0.2 lm, 3 cd, up to 65 h
Why such a dim red LED?
Zero point two lumens seems minuscule. That's precisely the goal: very low intensity red light allows you to read or handle objects without destroying the eye's adaptation to darkness, which takes twenty to thirty minutes to rebuild after white light.
And at this power, the battery life extends to 65 hours.
