I liked this hat clip for the first 4 weeks I had it. I used it on a few camping trips, and also when going to a parade/outdoor festival. The battery lasted a while, the light was bright and it was nice to have a hands free light.
I had read that the clips might break, and I was very cautious when putting it on my hat, as I do have a bit of a curve to the brim. One day it just snapped though, and I wasn't even putting it on the hat. I think that those clips will just give out eventually.
Once its broken, its kinda useless.
It would be nice if the clips were metal, and you could just bend them back as they get loose. That way it wouldn't matter if you over-torqued it, you could just bend it back. Obviously this would add 10 cents to the cost, if they left them shiny, and probably another 5 cents if they paint the metal black.
I think it would be worth it though, then they'd never have reviews talking about how the clips snap off.

This item was exactly as described and actually is better than I expected. The amount of light it gives off is incredible. I am a letter carrier and I expect to use it this winter during our late delivery days when we go back to standard time and will be working in the dark.Best Deals for Cyclops CYC-HC5-W Orion 5-LED Hat Clip Light, White Bulb
I'm an aircraft mechanic, and these devices are useful, especially when I'm working at night. My only real concern is the durability of the plastic clips that are used to attach it to the bill of your cap. I would prefer them to be metal, but I suppose that would make it cost more. If I ever find one like this that has metal clips, I'll buy several.Update to the above: Sure enough, the plastic clips are the "Achilles heel" of this product. One of them broke after only a month of normal use. It will still stay on my cap with only one clip, but I feel it's only a matter of time before that one breaks, too. For this reason, I have reduced my rating to 2 stars.
Final update: The second clip broke, so now this thing is totally useless. Find one that has sturdier clips.
Honest reviews on Cyclops CYC-HC5-W Orion 5-LED Hat Clip Light, White Bulb
This light was better than I thought it would be. I could'nt tell how big it was from the picture but it is only about 2 inches wide which is great beacause its not big and bulky like some of the others I've seen. It has 5 led lights that are extremely bright. Its great for close up light and hands free action. I use mine for work in attics, crawl spaces and working in closets. I just slip it on my hat, click it on and then take it off when im done.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Cyclops CYC-HC5-W Orion 5-LED Hat Clip Light, White Bulb
This is an excellent light for the money. I like how you clip it over the brim and not under the brim of your hat where it could potentially obstruct your sight.It is sometimes a little difficult to push the switch and turn it on but very manageable.
A few upgrades I would have liked to have are:
1. Adjustable angle
2. Different light intensity settings
3. A red light to use at night so night vision isn't affected.
Overall, great product for the price. I recommend highly.
