Measurement does not include the metal tension clip that holds the light in place very securely. To those saying the clip is weak? I don't see how, unless they got a defective/damaged unit, or more likely they strong armed the wire out of shape.
I had to finesse a corner of the wire holder onto my visor first, then work it a bit side to side to slip it in place-I didn't want to compromise the natural spring tension of the clip. It's not fragile, but still, take a moment and use just a little finesse is all. If any wire is bent out of shape, good luck getting it back in its original position.
I don't know why so many (most all) of these kind of headlamps insist on mounting these units BENEATH the visor, which can only obstruct vision, instead of on top of the hats visor, where it belongs. Maybe those other units are not sufficiently water resistant?
It's small, light weight, doesn't get in the way and is very bright, though I do not have a way to measure the actual Lumens.
Mounted on my hat, it certainly illuminates well enough to avoid any trip hazard when walking around at night and is practical to use when the need presents itself, such as when a vehicle dome light is not working, or looking into recessed areas like under the dash, or even rummaging around a shed in the daytime.
Yes, people say "I can just use my cell phone". Sure, who hasn't done that? But then, you're digging that brick out of your pocket or purse, (unless you left it elsewhere), then holding that brick with one hand while trying to do what needs to be done with the other until you get a call...good luck trying to contrive a place to cradle that phone safely when you need to use both hands.
Cell phones are fine for general illumination, but they are inherently awkward to handle, then you have to be able to contrive a make-shift place to hold the phone into position, hoping that it's stable enough for the task at hand and doesn't slip out of place and get damaged.
Even in those very awkward cases (like under a dashboard for a fuse) the hat itself serves a stabilizing base that lends itself to aiming that beam where it's needed, it's not nearly as prone to sliding around, and the clip light won't get damaged if it does slip out of place.
The hat clip light allows the press a button for hands free operation with a whole lot less fumbling around to get the light where you need it. Whatever you are looking at, that's where the lights focus is.
If you normally wear a hat, esp. if you wear one when outdoors working, with your dog, camping, fishing, hiking, etc., this is a great option. I have a clip light on both of my hats and one on my ball cap. No fumbling for keys when it's dark...
These were going for around $5.00 for quite awhile, but more recently has been closer the current $9.75, which seems a confiscatory price point, in my view, so wait until it goes down if you can. I love these lights but that is asking too much. The 4/2023 of apx $6.50 is more like it.
Original review:
I didn't purchase this to mount on my hat (at least initially) but to mount to the bottom of a drone so I could more easily tell if the drone was pointed to me from a distance. After about 100 yards out they look like specks, and you can't always see your phone screen in bright sunlight. I thought this would be good to mount on the bottom of the drone with velcro to identify the front end of the drone when pointed toward me. I have yet to try it on a drone, but hoping to do so by the weekend.
The thing is SMALL, about 1" x 1.5". I expected it to be thicker too. It weighs 9.79 grams without the clip (0.3 oz) with the batteries installed.
The clip is securely installed in the light, but comes out with little effort and should pop back in. I frequenty run my BBQ grill outside after dark, and I do need a light to see what I'm doing. Until now I've used one of those head-mount lightwith elastic bands that go around and over your head. Not comfortable, a little heavy and a little clumsy to have several ounces sitting on my forehead. This micro light, fitted on my hat wil also fill that bill, something that I wasn't smart enough to recognize I would use in that manner until it arrived.
I'm not sure about the battery life yet, but it takes two CR2016 batteries, which I have on hand when they need replacing.
If I experience anything different, good or bad I'll come back and edit my review. There are lots of other reviews that will be helpful, which helped me select this light.

I'm a pilot and it fits perfectly on my david clark headsets. Good cockpit backup light!!!!
I found the Cyclops Micro Mini LED Clip Light to be more than adequate in brightness to see by in the dark. In fact it was a lot brighter than I had expected based on other reviews. It is more than bright enough to be able to see to pickup after the dog.
With this light on my cap visor, a flashing red LED light hanging from the back strap of my cap, and some flashing LED lights I attached to the dog's collar, we don't seem to have as many near misses by bicycles anymore. Now if I could just convince the cyclists to put lights and bells on their bikes . . . etc.
I don't know how long the batteries will last yet. Just in case I found a very cheap source of batteries on eBay. I ordered something like 100 for less than $10.
I had actually bought two of these lights from another source and was so impressed I ordered 3 more when I found them on Amazon.ca for only $7.29 each.
Great product, highly recommended.
