We've all had clip lights before, but here's a clip light with a twist--well, more of a rotate. "My Light" LED Clip Light has a BIG jaw and an LED spotlight that rotates 360 degrees.
This clip light goes well beyond the "read in bed at night" and steps up to the plate wherever things get a bit dicey for lumens. We've found it to be great when attached to the display of our laptop when the sun goes down. Since the "clamp" opens to an inch and a quarter, it will clip where a lot of other lights won't, but the jaws aren't so tight that you fear damaging what you clip to.
The light itself is about the size of a ping pong ball and houses two sets of double LEDs. One set puts out a brilliant white light, the other pair are red, keeping your night vision intact. Said to be waterproof, shock resistant, and available in a variety of jazzy colors, "Might Light" comes equipped with two lithium batteries with a working life of 40 hours. SRP is $9.95 at http://www.mylight.com/tasklights_cliplight.htm.
Real world test: Our "out of the blister pack" light refused to turn on. After we opened up the light (an easy threaded job) and reinserted the batteries, the light performed as described. Time will tell whether the batteries really make the 40 hour average.

I love these lights too. I keep one clipped by the door for dog walking in the dark. It helps me see where she has 'been' for easy cleanup. I like the way it lights my path yet my hand are free. Good for other hands free tasks too.
Thank you, I use one that doesn't clip on well, can't wait to try this one instead.
Well written article.
