    Default cheap clip-on light

    so i'm in florida on a family matter and i hit the local hardware store...not one of those giant chains...a real old timey hardware store full of crazy crap. and as i stand there waiting to check out i see this: its billed as a light for clipping on to your glasses, which i admit is the dorkiest thing in this world. but for $2.99 who can resist? and i discovered they latch on nicely to hat brims. check it out.
    the brand is panther vision. i got it from a "do it best" type of hardware store

    Hmmm. I found these lights on-line at http://hectorshardware.com/pavianclliwi.html, but the list price is $24.99, not $2.99! They are on "sale" for $17.99...what a deal.

    When I read the first post, I wondered how long it would take for the Countycomm ones to show up here.

    Sure, johnny quest, if it's not too inconvenient let's see if they ship and what they'd charge. At $3 a piece I can see ordering a half-dozen for various uses.

    Unhappy

    reporting in on the clip lights. they dont have an online or phone order setup so i guess you have to be in the neighborhood of milton, florida if you want to take advantage of this deal. sorry.

    I found these lights at Lowes when I went to get my Xmas tree. They only had a pack of two with accessories for $12.97. I'll keep looking to see if they have any more.

    BTW yesterdays Sears add had a ball cap with 2 white and 2 red leds for $19.97.

    I'll let you all know if I get my hands on the $3 ones.
