Milwaukee has come out with better lights that are more versatile and cheaper.
You can buy two of these for $30 less and they are not a single situation tool.

Even without the free battery deal that was hard to get, I still think this is better for most people. You even get an additional 50 lumens combined.
Also 8 hours on high at 700 lumens each vs the underhood light at 4 hours on high.
This is a classic example of Milwaukee not shifting their lighting prices to account for age.
They even still sell this light at 100 lumens for $50.

Just one of many examples.

Highly recommend.
You left the hood on during an engine swap?
You might try DIYing a solution using broad hooks with a steel plate that these could attach to. Depending on your hood, most have crossbracing on the underside that has enough room for either thin hooks or even thin gauge plate steel bent to slide between both structures.
Most hoods are aluminum. Not steel.
i also just use drop lights and hook em on to whatever, while this light looks cool, it's crazy expensive for what it is and how limited it is.
performance cars? sure.
every other car/suv/truck/van? no. perhaps paper-thin steel, but certainly not aluminum.

While I agree that most cars on the road have steel hoods, my 2016 Honda Odyssey has an aluminum one.
