    Pros

    nice light, the leds do not focus at one point which gives a wider field of view and lower light levels

    Cons

    light shines straight ahead, above the dash, which means you need to point your head down to see the instruments and way down to see paperwork/chart on your knee.

    Clip looks pretty fragile, and it would be nice to be able to turn on 1, 2 or 3 of the bulbs at a time, rather than always 3 being on.

    General Comments

    good addition to your flight bag. If you need it, you'll be glad that it's there!

    It fits perfectly in a ball cap. It lit up the entire cockpit when I turned it on. Red was great.

    Cons

    Be very careful when attaching to ballcap. It could break very easily. It is made of thin plastic.

    I really like this product. Great value for any safe pilot. It is very light weight. I forget that I have it on my cap brim until I can't see something, and then I am glad it is there.

    Cons

    It does use a "watch" battery so I haven't tried to purchase one yet, but it is light weight with the "watch" battery. (So this really isn't a CON)

    General Comments

    I am a student pilot on a night cross country with my flight instructor when my instrument panel "mood" lights went out. I could not see my call sign for the Skyhawk 172. I had to put my fashlight between my legs and fly the plane -- not very effective or safe. I bought this visor clip flashlight and it works great. I never have to be without a light shining right where I am looking when I need it. I have used it around the house also. I love this product. My flight instructor wants one too. Be safe...buy one.

    Pros

    This thing can literally be a lifesaver! I had a bulb go out about 10 minutes before I needed to set up for a night heavy crosswind landing. My options were to get the screwdriver out of the glove compartment and do some in-flight bulb changing or wear this little gadget, it was an obvious choice. The lights are surprisingly bright and make it very easy to read the gauges, without being so bright as to mess with your vision.

    Cons

    Not a one.

    General Comments

    You need this product. If you have any ambitions of night-flying, it's a little foolish not to have at least one. There is absolutely no compromise when it comes to a product that can save your life. Getting your face close to the gauges when you are setting up for a landing would be incredibly foolish and dangerous, so I highly recommend keeping this little light around.
