I have this USB light. I figured out an easy way to turn it into a headlamp with grossgrain and elastic. You then wear it with the light over your ear like Locutus of Borg.

Feb 24, 2021 at 12:09 pm #3701253I assume it is a red light?
Nice ST reference, by the way :)
Feb 24, 2021 at 6:14 pm #3701298No it’s a white light with a low and high setting.
This is something you could make with a needle and thread if that’s all you have. I actually attached the elastic to hold the light with a needle and thread. Only the elastic on the back did I sew on with a sewing machine. I got the ribbon and the elastic at Michael’s.
