Big fan of this thing, holds a charge pretty well and is super bright. Magnetic base and all the rotation options are very useful

I have the older version of this light. I got it about 3 years ago and it still works great. Just sharing info.

Been looking for a work light at a good price, how does this one compare to the Husky one from Home Depot?

I'm not sure if these coupons stack, but inside track members have a 30% off coupon for anything $20 or less. Might be able to apply this coupon to this deal.

I have several of the original (because I would always misplace it. Wound up putting a Tile tracker dot on my first one) This was my favorite light but they only folded to 90 degrees. Then I got the Icon version that folds completely which is my go to most of the time but now there is a Braun version that folds? I'm in for more if there is. At $13.99…glovebox of every vehicle.

I have both the Braun and was given these Amazon ones for Christmas. Quality doesn't compare the Braun ones are much brighter, better magnet, better adjustability, overall just a better light.

Bought the 4 pack. Out of the box they are very bright. Haven't had them long enough to know battery life.

Gonna put one in each car next to the $1.79 harbor freight lights I have for emergencies. I miss when they gave those out for free.

I'll still try to get the Braun one (you can never have too many flashlights) but they'll probably sell out.

I like this light---but I just can't bring myself to bite on one again. I picked one up a few years back, used it around the house and in the garage, it worked great--bright, good battery life, the form factor worked pretty well. Unfortunately it got knocked off a hood, hit the plastic radiator shroud, then down to the concrete garage floor--and that was the end of that light. It would power on for a couple seconds, then shut off. I put it on the charger for a while, same behavior, and eventually it died completely. Just not durable enough considering the form factor, for me
Did you try changing the 18650 battery? And of course there's going to be some duds on a made in china mass produced cheap product. I've had mine for a years, it's the older model that doesn't fold completely and dropped it many times. Still works perfect. I upgraded the battery when I first got it (found it in a drop ceiling 2 years ago)

That's what I was wondering, how many each store is actually going to have on the floor during the sale? And then magically a billion show up the day after the sale is over.

I have one of the older ones and recently got one of the new ones and don't understand how the old design is better. The new ones are brighter, have USB c vs micro USB, can fold in half vs only to 90 degrees, are more compact, and seems like they are better built. They improved pretty much everything with the new design. Maybe the battery life was better with the old design but I haven't used it long enough to notice.
I have one of the older ones as well, and recently purchased one of the newer ones.
The power button started sticking on the second day, had to return it. 🤨
It just felt like the older one was better built, but I'm willing to concede that the newer one might have been a dud.

The Amazon ones are good for light duty around the house poking around under your bed or behind the couch but just know that one wrong twist or drop and you're taping together the pieces. Flimsy plastic housing doesn't take much to snap and they're not made for the rigors of garage floor drops or smacks against something hard. IMHO the HF ones are the sweet spot between a $50 - $70 DeWalt or Milwaukee trouble lights and your garden variety Amazon plastic light
