This DeWALT 20 volt MAX LED work light is a bright, rugged jobsite light that works well for outages, fixture changes, and other times the power is off. It throws a lot of flood style light, has a handy top hook, and can run about 10 hours on full brightness with a standard 5 amp hour battery. The light itself is not rechargeable, so it needs a DeWALT 20 volt battery and charger, which are not included. It is also a bit bulky, and the ratcheting head could be tighter, making it a solid backup light if you already have DeWALT batteries.
Tradespeople needing a bright cordless work light for outages or fixture changes, because it throws a lot of light and runs about 10 hours on a 5Ah battery.
Homeowners who already own compatible batteries, because it works well as a backup light without needing a separate charger or built-in recharge circuit.
The newer unit is 1000 lumens, with 1000/300 lumens on high and low. The older Type 1 version was 500 lumens, so the current light is significantly brighter.
No. It uses a rechargeable DeWALT 20V battery, but the battery and charger are not included, so it is only a tool-only light. If you already have DeWALT 20V batteries, it can be a good buy.
With a standard 5Ah battery, it can run on full brightness for about 10 hours. That makes it practical for long jobs, outages, or all-day use without swapping batteries.
It is more of a floodlight than a spotlight, so it spreads light over a wider area instead of throwing a narrow beam. That makes it better for room lighting, fixture changes, and backup use.
The one I received from Amazon was manufactured in early 2024, which is a little ridiculous considering this isn't a fire sale price. I'm considering sending it back and rolling the dice with Walmart for the same price
