DEWALT 20V MAX* LED Work Light / Flashlight (DCL040)

Dewalt die hard here..but this isn’t worth the money. Buy a $3 flashlight and you’ll be better off. Super weak beam. I’d say equivalent to the small light on a drill

The light was delivered with no battery. The battery cost $34, almost as much as the light. When I revisited the listing for the light, I found No Battery was included in the fine print, but I believe No Battery should be clearly stated in the product description. DEWALT 20V MAX* LED Work Light WITH NO BATTERY. If I realized the battery would double the price of the light, I wouldnt have made the purchase. No light could be worth that much.

Keep in mind that when you are finished, you have $100+ flashlight. You need the light AND a battery And a charger sold separately. I have the new DeWalt tools with the brushless motors that use these new batteries, which are 4 amp. These tools generally come with two of these batteries. I also bought two extra. So, it is an expensive light, but it is bright. There are cautions about looking directly into the LED (Light Emiting Diode). Believe it and do not look directly into the light - you risk retina damage. The head tilts (a little too easily for me) and there is a hanger. The light is not heavy and the over-molded grip makes it comfortable to use. It has a three year warranty as do the batteries. Keep in mind, that if you buy the light and battery, you will need a charger. This is not a problem for me as I have the other tools that use these batteries and they all come with chargers. Kind of a long way of recommending this light is only if you have the new DeWalt tools that use this battery. If you do, the light is an excellent value. If you dont, well read my first sentence again and then decide.

Easy to use and manipulate in the aria you need light. Dewalt is one of my fav brands.

We live in the country. We have plenty of wild game near our property. We use our lights ( we own two, 1 for me and 1 for my wife) to watch deer after dark at a feeder near our house. This area is a sanctuary ( no hunting allowed) for my wife to view deer. It allows me to gauge when deer are active. I do hunt and I prefer to hunt evenings. If I shoot a deer, many times it is dark before I track the deer. This light is excellent for brightness and battery life. No problem tracking deer plus 1 hour plus battery life allows me to find deer without delay. Also use it for work situations where little or no light available due to no electricity. Light head is adjustable from standard 90 to 180 degrees making the light directional. I have owned 1 for over 1 year. Had to buy this 1 for my wife. No qualms recommending this light.

The light is very bright and surprisingly doesn’t use that much battery life

Everything was good

I like the brightness of the light for small jobs

If you find yourself working in low light areas or need a crazy bright beam for any purpose, this is the light for you. I was doing a bit of plumbing under the kitchen and bathroom sinks and this was a perfect solution to put light on the subject. Easily stands on the flat battery and the head pivots (up and down) to direct the light. Using the light in its brightest mode will drain the battery about twice as fast as in the low beam mode but still lasts plenty long for most any project. Mine did not come with a belt clip but does have the loop for hanging on a belt hook.

Have not tested battery life. Depends on battery Amp Hour rating and age of battery. Over all this is small enough to fit most cramped work spaces. The big flood lights create shadows and miss the area of interest. My only iten for a wish list is a brightness control.
