Without further ado, I present the Gadget Brando
5 LED Cap Light, an approximately 3.5" long x 2" wide x 0.5"
deep five LED bar which clips to the underside of a cap's brim.
Two Lithium CR2032 cells are included, and once installed the
light bar will be powered on or off by pressing the small button to
the left of the battery compartment.
When turned on, the five LEDs glow with an extremely bright
white light. It is enough to illuminate a safe walking path in
front of the wearer, or to put a spotlight on whatever project the
wearer is working.
Attaching the light bar to the brim of a cap is accomplished by
sliding the two plastic clips over the bill's edge.
Once installed, the light bar peeks from underneath. This is the
part of the review where I should mention that if you are the
finicky type that has to get your brim creased just so, then
this product may undo a little bit of what you have worked so hard
to achieve. However, the pay off is that for a slightly less
creased brim the user will get bright illumination for walking,
hiking, or working in a dark area.
I could have really used this product back
when I was looking for my way out of that Haunted Mansion on Halloween.
The Gadget Brando 5 LED Cap light is a clever solution for those
that need an extra hand when working alone. It's not quite as
obvious as a full head lamp, and it is more powerful than a small
clip-on. As an added bonus, the clip on light can be removed and
held when a hand held flashlight is desired. I think it's a pretty
clever idea. If you have a clever idea too and you'd like me to blog about please e-mail it to me. And as always, if you're a budding inventor yourself and need more info on prototypes or how to sell your ideas click here!
