About Streamlight 61125 ClipMate 70-Lumen USB Rechargeable Clip-On Light
Overall Feedback:
91% positive
89% appreciated its adjustable beam focus
The adjustable arm makes it easy for me to manipulate the light at different angles.
I can adjust the light to point the beam exactly where I look and it doesn't pull my hat forward on my head.
89% appreciated its long-lasting battery life, but 11% experienced quick drainage
The battery life of this handheld flashlight is fantastic. I even wondered whether it needed charging at all.
I have been using the light daily for months and have not had to charge it yet, which is impressive for its battery life.
The battery life for high and low settings is 24 and 3.5 hours respectively.
The battery is lithium and rated for 300 cycles. It only holds a 70% charge.
86% were satisfied with its brightness, while 14% found it dim
In a dark vehicle, the red light is sufficient for writing and the white light is surprisingly bright for hands-free illumination.
I tested the light on the trail and found that the bright setting produces enough light for cycling or running, while the low setting is adequate for hiking.
The flashlight is not focus-adjustable and not very bright.
Even on its highest setting, the red light is extremely dim and does no good from even a foot away.

90% praised for its rugged construction, but 10% experienced durability issues
I find the construction quality of the handheld flashlight good and it feels durable and difficult to break.
I accidentally ran it through the washer and it still works, indicating its durability.
While sitting and writing a citation, the bendable part snapped right off of the base.
I have complained that the charging insert is fragile and can break easily, even with a small bump.
87% liked its comfortable grip and handling, though 13% found it awkward
I can adjust the bendy head to point the beam where I look and the weight of the light doesn't pull my hat forward.
I find the switch on/off/change color switch difficult to activate and awkward to use when attached to something like a hat brim.
70% liked the intuitive switch and interface, but 30% found it confusing
I find the switch on the handheld flashlight difficult to operate while moving or driving. It's a small grey click-style push button.
The switch to turn on/off or change colors is difficult to activate and awkward to use when attached to something like a hat brim.
The top switch button has deteriorated and now has a small hole in it.
I find the light switch awkwardly located and it requires a heavy push, causing thumb soreness after a while.
83% appreciated its water and shock resistance, but 17% experienced issues
I accidentally ran my flashlight through the washer and it still works, proving its waterproof and durable.
I love the clip-on rechargeable flashlight, which I use as a member of Law Enforcement.
I used the warranty and received a new one.
While sitting and writing a citation, the bendable part snapped off of the base. This suggests that the product may lack durability against shock or water resistance.
87% liked its lightweight and compact design
The unit is light in weight, weighing only about 1.5 oz or 44 g without the charger.
The light is clipped to my hat's bill and adds negligible weight, which becomes unnoticeable after a short time.
I can adjust the bendy head of the light to point the beam exactly where I look, and it doesn't pull my hat forward on my head due to its weight.
