What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise this work light for its exceptional brightness and wide-area illumination that floods entire rooms and workspaces. Reviewers consistently commend the rugged construction, with many reporting the light remains fully functional after multiple drops and years of heavy use. The adjustable head, hanging hook, and compatibility with existing batteries are frequently cited as major advantages for hands-free positioning in tight spaces. Most customers call it the best work light they've ever owned, ideal for workshops, automotive repairs, attics, and emergencies. A few note the pivot mechanism could hold position more securely, but these minor concerns are vastly outweighed by strong overall satisfaction.

Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Provides ample light for projects large and small. I have used it for everything from automotive work to attic and crapspace projects. The light is versatile and battery life cannot be beat, especially on the 9ah Flexvolt batteries.

Love this Light
Would Recommend[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive had this light for 2 years. i use all the time as i am an hvac contractor, i love the hanging hook, longevity of battery, and durability. Im wondering how long a flex volt battery would last on this baby. The negative- I like that it tells me Im on borrowed time battery wise by flashing- unless Im in a dark spot. Not a big deal but worth mentioning.

Really great light
Would RecommendI've had all brands of lights but I really like this light. I had to repair an air conditioner that was in the attic. This Dewalt 20 V light really lit the area. In the past I've used the spot light type lights which worked okay but this 500 Lumen LED lit the entire work area. It's now my favorite hand held light.

Great little light
Would RecommendI hate cords and bought this to replace the 14v fluorescent light that I had and used regularly, but the NiCad batteries died and it won’t accept the 14v Li Ion battery I have. Best move I made. It is the “right” size and the dual intensity mode is a bonus. Light life, even on the 2 AmpHr battery, is acceptable on bright and more than acceptable on low light mode. Even on the low mode the light output is usable. I use this on house projects and repairs. So, it may sit around for a while and...

This light I keep close.
Would RecommendWith a lightweight design, I take it everywhere I go. Also, as I'm getting older my eyes are having trouble adjusting to dark and dim lit places. I use this light everywhere, e v e r y where. I've not not been able to light up an area where I needed to complete any task. Found to be durable after dropping it once or twice from improper handling, I believe this to be the last worklight I ever buy.

Best Light Ever
Would RecommendOk men...get rid of those worthless drop lights and especially the lame fluorescent lights. No more fighting with a cord. This light by far is the best for all the mechanical trades...it’s very bright, the battery lasts for hours...it’s awesome for working under a sink base cabinet, working in a electrical panel, you name it. The only thing I don’t like about it is that when you hang it by the hook, it only shines on a horizontal plane. Too bad it can’t “shine down” on the vertical plane. Other ...
Great all around light
Would RecommendI just started using this but am very happy with it so far. My old light is the DW919 and there is no comparison between the two. I saw one person complain about their 5.0ah batteries not fitting well but my DCB205 batteries slide on and off with ease. Maybe it was an early production model they had? I use it for lighting up small areas for electrical work and for working underneath vehicles. It won't be the same as a well lit room or being outside in the daylight but I can see just fine with it...

Works but has issues
Would Not RecommendI have the DCL040 and love it si I wanted to love the DCL050 but it comes with issues. The light is OK but needs a wider field of light. The pivoting head is so long and heavy that the pivot continually falls to the 90 degree position so a stronger detent would be a nice update. The light I received has an issue with the battery clip on certain batteries. The 6 ah batteries slide on and off with ease but my 5 ah batteries are very hard to get on and off as if the light has a mold error for the b...

Good for on the go.
Would RecommendWith the batteries, it has a good stable base. Could use more diodes to broaden the field of lighting. Like the fact that I can inter change batteries with my other tools.
