When it worked, it worked great, but ...

Would Not Recommend

It worked great, then one day the light went floppy. The neck broke - I tried to fix it an no luck. I tried to return and the same thing! Avoid!!!

**LOWES** PLEASE, BRING THESE BACK!"

Would Recommend

These are selling on amazon and ebay for close to $200. **LOWES, GET A CLUE AND BRING THESE BACK!!!*** Ditch the flexi neck on these and I would buy three more tonight. BEST FLASHLIGHTS I'VE OWNED, PERIOD. Toss the flex neck and extra coupler in the recycle bin. LOVE THESE AS A SELF CONTAINED RECHARGABLE FLASHLIGHT, GENIUS!!! **Version 2.0 suggestion, add more magnets. They're handy for holding loose screws, drill bits, small sawzall blades, etc. Unfortunately that blocks any sticking them to so...

Great Farm Help

Would Recommend

Aside the two design flaws (male:male w/ female interconnecting ring, and detachable cap) this is my favorite farm tool!! It holds a charge long enough and then some and right now I am using it to light a farrowing pen for little piglets. I don't want to run another electric cord cause I already have a heater on in there ... I love the weight and placement of the angle, I can attach it to my mower/tractor/wagon to do late chores, I can put it inside my jacket for illuminating my path while kee...

Love this light

Would Recommend

I was so tired of needing a flashlight and the batteries were dead. Then you throw out batteries which were almost never used and replace them knowing that they will sit in the flashlight and die before they are properly used. And those times you need a flashlight for more than 15 minutes, well battery flashlights will fail you there. Lowe's had this flashlight on display and I asked for one for x-mas, and my wife indeed bought me one. I loved it. For electrical work I would wrap it around my ne...

Kobalt Hypercoil Flashlight is indispensable!

Would Recommend

They list it as a 'handheld' but the beauty of this flashlight is it is 'hands-free' ! This is a photo of my step father patching plaster on a dimly lit ceiling. Doesn't get any better than this. You can also coil it on a surface and aim the light exactly on whatever you are working on. Brilliant!

As a flashlight - very good.

Would Recommend

I've had this product about a year now & it's very durable. Been dropped many, many times with no effect. One of the magnets did fall out a couple of months back, never did find it. Don't use the flexible hose as the light seemed to heavy to support it. The only other issue with me is the button to turn it on & off is to small. Most of the time I have to hunt for it. Other then that button it's a great flashlight, as I use it just about every day.

Best flashlight I own for around the house & barn!

Would Recommend

I bought a handful of these Kobalt HyperCoil LED lithium ion flashlights when they were on sale at my local Lowes for less than $8 each. A store associate told me they were normally $35 but they had such a high return rate from people not able to figure out how to recharge the Lithium Ion battery (plug is under the tail cap) that they wanted to close them out. I bought one, tried it out, loved it, and went back for two more for myself and additional ones for gifts! It's wonderfully bright, has h...

Great Gift

Would Recommend

I bought 3 of these things, one for myself, another for my fiance, and one for my brothers birthday. Mine will be in my toolkit and is great for under the car, my fiance's is staying in her trunk in case she gets stuck somewhere, the strobe is very strong and works great as a roadside marker. My brother likes his so much he uses the tiniest excuse to go grab it and show it off to people.

Great little light for the money!

Would Recommend

Very versatile product and I couldn't pass on the great markdown price...$17.98 normally...purchased for less than $4! Like the fact of a "hands-free" (magnetic) work light with dual power source setup!!

Excellent Flashlight

Would Recommend

Bought one just to check it out for one of my vehicles. Wasn't sure if I needed another flashlight but I just wanted to try it out so it was an impulse buy. Out of the package i tried it wit;h both batteries and then again after charging it. Each flashlight body has four small magnets for attaching to iron which is a real plus and so is the adjustable neck which makes it a great work-light. Lens is set to illuminate nearby areas with a large diameter spot light effect. Focusing barrel for lens i...

Handy item for any work area

Would Recommend

This unit is exceptionally bright and adjustable to any position. What is really unique is that in addition to being rechargeable, a spare battery pack and be used with standard batteries. It has been months since the unit has been charged and is still bright as ever. Though a holster/pouch is available, the only suggestion I would make is to include some type of pouch for the extra battery pack to prevent damage, a belt type of unit would be most appropriate in the event the charge runs out in ...
