Well the much anticipated DeWALT DCL050 area light arrived and I have to say the lighting power and runtime are quite impressive. The light works off of the 20V MAX battery line up and has 2 light settings. 500 lumens on high and 250 lumens on low to save battery life. Runtime is good and dependent on what battery pack you are using. You will easily to be able to get an entire workday done on one charge with the 3.0 or 4.0 battery.
The unit pivots from 0-140 degrees to give you a range of light spread. The 20V MAX style pistol grip is comfortable and the trigger controls the unit. A 360 degree rotating hook allows you to hang it from pretty much anything. There is also a plastic loop on the back to attach to. The 3 LEDS are bright and well protected by an over molded lens cover. I really like this light, my only complaint would be the lack of a magnet to attach it to metal surfaces. Get yours from the Power Tool Super Center.
Now that is something I am going to get. Great light and it’s a DeWalt too. Thanks for the review..
I want one. Where did you guys get from, our Tool Nut? Dan, when did you get into Polka music? I bet you play a mean accordian. LOL. Laters TIA
I won the cargo tote it’s Social@toolsinaction.com right also I would like to see a comparison between this light and the m18 flood light
I like this light. I think it is a great addition to the 20v line.
i think its great but it cost a lot
I’m wondering if its bright enough for my use
i rather see a 11,000 lumen light, i use that more
I have neodymium magnets glued to the bottom of batteries to hold bits, screws, etc, so that would work perfectly in conjunction with this light.
