Product Information
Full details
The Portwest USB Rechargeable Light Clip is an essential tool for outdoor workers, night-shift laborers, and active individuals who require hands-free illumination in low-light conditions. Providing a robust 150 lumens of brightness in a compact, durable frame, it offers the convenience of USB charging and versatile mounting options for hats, belts, or radio loops; however, users should note its limited four-hour battery life, which may require mid-shift recharging during extended tasks.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin using your light, ensure it is fully charged via the integrated USB port. Once charged, simply press the power button to cycle through the high, medium, and flash modes. To mount, slide the clip onto the edge of a baseball cap, a heavy-duty belt, or a standardized radio loop on a safety vest. When cleaning, use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth to wipe the lens and casing, avoiding abrasive chemicals that might damage the surface. Always store in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain battery health and device longevity.
