Got tired of the darkness when i didn't have power nearby, uses my batteries from my Hitachi power tools.

Cool!

I have never seen those Hitachi lights before.

I have several of the Milwaukee brand LED lights. :D

Yep, very handy. Have the fluorescent and LED.

The light beam angle is adjustable by turning the front part that houses the LED.

Very pleased with the amount of light, have 5.0 Ah batteries so it last a while.

Very happy with Hitach, the plan was Bosch but the local dealer had a bad day and thought I only was in the shop for a look and then order online so no sales for him.

That is a Hitachi UB18DGL LED worklight you are showing us there.

Certainly gives off a good amount of light

And the Hitachi UB18DLC is the cordless fluorescent lantern. Amazing price on that light I see here.

I had bought a 12v Milwaukee cordless lantern to give as a gift last Christmas to my friend. She loved it. In case of a power outage she could still have a decent lighting in the house to read etc. plus it has a USB charge port for the cell phone and her kindle. And I tossed in an x-tra battery and charger I had too, (I'm such great guy :rolleyes: ).

Right now that 2362-20 lantern comes free with some combo deal purchases. I had thought about getting one for myself but I wasn't sure if I would want that same one or go for the 18v. The M18 is larger and has three 3 bulbs instead of just the two but it cost more. The M12 is plenty bright enough for most applications I know that. :eek:

I have always liked the light a fluorescent puts out. Some of these new LED work lights are very powerful and can almost be too bright depending on the situation. I had always wanted a work light like the DEWALT-DC020.

I have the 2621 hexagonal flood lantern 1100 lumens and that makes a good yard light when needed. I like the large carry handle. Very rugged tool for a light.

Just an FYI Milwaukee Tool has released several new lights in 2015. You can see all the different Milwaukee lights here

The only time it seems that I plug in my halogen work lights anymore is when I want the xtra heat! :laughing:

Yes, had snow but the rain took it, right now it's -9c, long way from the -25 to -30c it was when I was a school boy.
