There are many ways to carry your Oclip, here are the three main ways:
Clip-on:
Oclip comes with a strong clip that can be attached to various objects with a maximum thickness of 14 millimeters. It can be clipped onto pockets, hat brims, belts, and other items. Both the clip and the flashlight are equipped with rubber pads, effectively reducing the possibility of damage. So even if you clip on an expensive item, Oclip can hold it firmly without causing any damage.
Magnetic attachment:
Oclip has a small magnet embedded in the end of the clip, making it easy to attach to metal objects. This means you can fix it to a fridge, metal shelf, or other metal surface, making your flashlight available at all times. You don't have to worry about losing or searching for a light source, just fix Oclip in the right place.
Lanyard carries:
In addition to clip-on and magnetic attachment, Oclip also features a small hole at the other end of the clip for attaching a lanyard or keychain. You can thread the lanyard through the hole and then hang Oclip around your neck, backpack, or keychain. This carrying method is convenient and lightweight, making your flashlight easily accessible, whether for outdoor adventures or daily use.
With these three carrying methods, Oclip is not just a clip-on light, but a multi-functional and convenient portable flashlight. No matter which way you choose to carry it, Oclip can be easily carried and used.
So, what are the main uses of carrying a clip light?
The Oclip flashlight is extremely convenient in daily life. For example, during power outages, nighttime walks, camping, and other occasions, you can clip the Oclip onto your backpack or place it on your back to use its red light function as a rear signal light, increasing safety at night and making it easier for others to notice your presence. Additionally, when you need to do home repairs, the Oclip flashlight can provide sufficient light to help you complete tasks more easily. Whether it's changing batteries, disassembling furniture, or inspecting circuits, the Oclip flashlight can provide ample illumination.

Batteries and Charging Methods
The 280mAh small capacity is sufficient to meet emergency lighting needs, considering the compact design and purpose of this light. Due to its small size, it is suitable for carrying in pockets or on keychains, primarily for addressing lighting needs in unexpected situations such as power outages, outdoor activities, or nighttime emergencies. For these temporary usage scenarios, the 280mAh capacity is enough to provide short-term illumination.
The USB charging feature makes it convenient and easy to use. The included USB-C charging cable can be connected to any USB device, eliminating the need for an additional charger. This means users can charge the light using common devices such as computers, power banks, or car chargers, increasing charging flexibility. Additionally, the USB port is hidden beneath a rubber cover, preventing dust and moisture from entering and improving the durability of the light.
The light has a fast charging capability, with a measured charging time of 1 hour and 33 minutes. This means users can complete the charging process in a short amount of time, reducing waiting time and enhancing convenience. Furthermore, the small red and green lights on the switch provide charging indicators, allowing users to clearly know the charging status. When charging begins, the red light illuminates, and when charging is complete, it changes to green, enabling users to accurately track the progress of charging.
Olight Clip Light Quality and Warranty
No part on the Oclip is removable except for the USB-C port cover. It's pretty sturdy for such a small light. The body is made of aluminum, the anodization is very well done, it doesn't look cheap, and the only color available right now is black. Olight will release more beautiful colors, so stay tuned!
