Good rechargeable, magnetic handheld worklight?

[phillb]

Any suggestions welcome, will be used 5 days a week, able to charge next to me when not in use.

Napa Blue work light. Dont get the cheap one get the good one. I got one as a gift and then bought another.
Great magnets, on the back and on the base, if you swivel the base around you can put really tight angels on the light and the base magnet will still hold.
It takes a couple days for the batteries to be really charged. At first the battery didnt last long sitting and being off. But now each one can go a couple days and still be charged.
Best light I've used.

I got a 12v Milwaukee light for use on the compressor deck here at work. It has come in handy. Had to buy the magnet separately, but it also has a built in hook to hang it up.

These have good battery life and are quite bright. I've got four of them. The magnet actually works as well. They can be easy to lose though.

The Napa lights are popular as well, several people I've worked with have them. I dont care for them myself.

The Astro 40SL has served me well. They have a version with an extended well.

Not sure how bright of a light you want but I bought this one from Snap On and it is awesome! All aluminum and has a strong magnet. Excellent spread of light and very compact.

When I searched Amazon, this one popped up too ? New one from them?

Any of the lights from Astro Tool. The 40sl is great and so is the 30sl. I'd buy both.

Eric O. has been using a new blue and black light in his videos, anyone know what it is? Looks like it shows the battery level while in use.

How big/small? How bright? How much run time daily or before a charge? Price? Flood or spotlight? I have the old model m18 flood light with hex ends. And i love it! The newer m18 rover is magnetic. The hex one isnt

I like my Sabre light. Run time is not great @4 hours, I have 2 they charge fast. I’ve had the same 2 for a couple of years.

Describe the use for “hand held work light”.. you want the most for your money without knowing exactly what you need it for - the $20 hf Braun light.. if you bought it for $50 people would still say it was worth it.. giving a size and power preference would help.. there are a lot of good small lights.

The hf Braun “IS” the old model Astro light.. strong magnetic base, ultra thin light head, lighted tip, replaceable 18650 battery, and the light wand itself is hinged to aim it. It will fit in just about anything.
