I'm not sure if the thumbnail picture is correct but the product link takes you to the Bosch GLI18V-300N, which is 18V not 12V. Online shows regular price. I can't find any in stock via Brickseek so YMMV. Good luck.
This has been 25% off at my local Lowe's for the past ~2 months. So $22.50 instead of the normal $30. I've been waiting for it to drop more. Has anybody used this one? I currently have the Bosch FL-12 light and love it.

I haven't used it but based on specs you'd expect a similar brightness to what you already have but [presumably] a longer runtime depending on the Ah of your battery. I also have the FL-12 and I like that it doesn't occupy an 18V battery but I don't need mine to run for hours either.

Thanks I actually have two FL-12s. I got a second on a slick deal for half off late last year. I'm getting decent run times on the standard 2 amp hour batteries.

Very bright - 300LM seems conservative - and very compact. For <$20 I'd definitely buy.
I use it for under-car work, either lying on its back or side as a flood but small enough for in-hand use. As a flashlight where the larger emitting area causes less dazzle. Or toss under a sink (though your FL-12 is likely superior)
It's not powerful enough to light a large room and it's so small that when using the hook you may have to drive another nail or two to keep it shining in the right direction.
Bickseek shows all out of stock by me! Been trying to get this light for cheap since it fits my eco system.. oh well. I got the cheap portable shop vac instead

"12v Bosch battery" on their site or the home improvement/ amazon site of your choice. Generally a flashlight isn't one's entry point into a battery ecosystem though. If you aren't into a 12v system already, I would personally consider the other tools more so than their flashlights. Although the m12 rocket from Milwaukee is _almost_ a lone excuse to go Milwaukee.

My experience has been ~1 hr of light foreach Ah.
