This completely unacceptable breakdown in the supply chain was often solved by the lowest paid servicemen, the E-5 and below. Worse yet, lack of batteries didn’t usually cancel a mission. Sometimes their CO or 1st Sergeant couldn’t “miracle” batteries into existence, particularly on small FOBS in the middle of nowhere. For years our guys and gals overseas ran into the seriously bullshit issue of getting batteries from stingy supply sergeants (who usually scoffed at the request from the safety of their cage or conex). Why? Well, one big reason is that it doesn’t consume batteries that can be expensive, unavailable, or hard to find.
We can see it being just as useful to a mechanic as a warfighter, plumber or cop. The Clipmate USB was designed to be a multipurpose task light that can fill a range of everyday uses.
They’re a good idea, but they’re junk. The new CLIPMATE USB from Streamlight, on the other hand, took that good idea and actually made it useful and practical. Now we’ve all seen the garbage five dollar special USB flashlights at the local gas station. Recently while visiting one of our favorite Virginia gear shops ( F3 Tactical), we spotted an interesting flashlight with a built-in USB tab for charging.
