The light is bright and long lasting. The rubber switch cover tore after a year, and the lens bezel threads wore quickly with the repeated bulb changes.
You can direct the light, it stays steady on the floor and no cord to drag along. This lamp is far superior to the ones I had been using. Wish I had purchased it years ago. I bought this on a whim. Thought I could use it in tight places and under tables on which I do wiring for a model railroad.
It's pricey for a flashlight, that's my only reason for not giving it 5 stars. Like others have mentioned, it's handy to have a flashlight that stands up on its own and has an adjustable directional beam. I bought it to also allow me to drain my NiCad battery packs between uses and to make additional use of my cordless drill batteries.
I wont go on and on, but if you have an extra battery, this is where you should be keeping it, on the bottom of this awesome flashlight. With the battery installed, it is very stable too. I cant say enough about this flashlight. Its simple, the head swivels up and down, and it has an off on switch.
My favorite feature on the flashlight is the swivle head. I love this flashlight. Usually lasts about 2 hours on a fully charged battery. I can put the light down and aim it at the target easily and not have to use an extra hand to hold the light. I am an electrician so I use a flashlight quite often. As I already own a Porter Cable 14.4 volt drill, the convinience of having a battery at the ready for the flashlight is awesome.
