Cordless LED Work Light

[hancock1701]

Hi guys,

I'm in the market for a cordless LED work light for under the hood, under the car, and sometimes inside the car. The ones with magnets and hooks seem useful for under the hood. When under the car, I need it to be able to stand and not roll around. The other day I was removing a door panel and realized there's no where to hang my corded light, and it can't stand on its own. Here are the 3 I'm interested in. What's your experience/opinions on these?

Torchstar

Capri Tools

Cliplight
http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00PYIMHRC/ref=pd_aw_sim_hi_2?refRID=0JBWKANQ57DVJC7EEJQV

All of them have over 200 lumens, Torchstar can stand on its own, Capri Tools has the most (300) lumens, and the Cliplight doesn't have built in rechargeable battery.

Look at headlamps I got a cheap one better than a stand alone

true, headlamps are better. from what I have seen, most cheap LED bar work lights are dim and poorly focused.

IMO Zebralight pure flood headlamp is best for close-up work.

I like this one:

90 LEDs, ~ 500 Lumens, lithium-ion rechargeable battery.

They make a 60 LED and a 30 LED version but I like the 90 so well I plan to buy another one.

I agree with a headlamp.

I have this craftsman, and it's really nice too:, and bright:

I got it for less than $20.

I have a monster brand underhood led light that clamps on the hood and I couldn't recommend it more.

I was looking at what you suggested and found this, I it is not as bright but it looks good from the pictures and the posted reviews.

Ditto. This is the best tool i have bought in the last 2 years. Get one with a handful of recharageable enelop batteries and you'll have light wherever you look.

Good review article:http://toolguyd.com/zebralight-h502w-led-headlamp-review/
(note the there is a new model number that I bought.)
