5.0 out of 5 stars I love this little light!!!, February 8, 2007

I purchased one of these about 2 years ago in Radio Shack, and I used it so much that used up the battery and finally the bulb. I then obtained a replacement and did an encore and now I am buying a third. I may seem like lot but in all honesty I used the hell out of mine! I have used it for such things as changing a flat tire at night (this happened to me twice), working on computers under a desk, wiring electrical fixtures in a dark corners. Plus about a 1000 other applications where it was not practical to have a conventional flash light. It's light in weight and mounts on the ear much like a cell phone ear piece does. About the only down side it that if you have cell phone ear piece on the other ear, you end up looking like something out of Star Trek.

2.0 out of 5 stars A Task Light not capable of most tasks..., January 15, 2007

This light is just "ok". This light is fairly bright, given how small it is, but its not a light for ALL tasks. The light would probably be fine for reading at night but not suitable if you are, oh lets say, working on a car or something where you really need a bright light.

My biggest gripe is probably how uncomfortable the light actually is on someone's ear. It is not ergonomic by any means of the imagination. It seems like its not really built to fit on the ear at all. When you place the light over your ear it actually makes the light swivel practically into your eye ball, which is exactly where you don't want it. I would only recommend this light to people who plan on using it to read for short periods of time.

I always find it amusing that some folks seem to have difficulty with operating something rather simple. Much like the people shown in an advertisement having difficulty (on purpose) with a simple task and then shown with the 'solution' product that they are pitching.
We spend a lot of time RVing with a dog which requires spending time outdoors, many times in the dark. This little light is perfect since it frees up your hands to handle the doggy chores. But it also is enough light on a dark night to allow you to get around while seeing everywhere your head is pointed.
It feels awkward at first, until you get the hang of it. Put it on your ear, adjusting it and pushing it against your head, until it feels snug. Mine has yet to fall off or even come close to falling off.
I've used 'head lights' that strap around your head like a visor. And I've used other types of illuminating devices, but this is now my favorite.
If you are one of the voters in Broward county during the 2000 election who couldn't seem to vote, this is not for you. Everyone else - you'll love it!
Adding to this review..............
I neglected to mention that it has allowed me to grill on our portable grill outside after dark when camping. Many times the light available is just not enough or non-existent. This light is more than adequate for the task and frees your hands to do everything. It's cool.........
