DEWALT 20V MAX LED Work Light, Rechargeable Flashlight, Pivoting Head, Bare Tool Only (DCL050)

I just received mine yesterday and put it into service addressing an on-demand water heater issue. I used it for a 1/2 hour or so in the afternoon to shine light into my Noritz. Later in the evening I decided to put the front cover back on it so I used the light again, hanging from an overheat water pipe: hook feature is great. However, I forgot to turn it OFF and noticed it still ON this morning, a full 12 hours later. It spent the night on the LOW setting (300 lumens).I find the LOW setting was plenty of light for what I was doing, a nice floodlight beam, and being close to the work. I had my 5Ahr battery attached to it.With the 5Ahr connected, I tested its balance on the floor at all the angles the head allows: no problem on a level floor. This may get a bit wobbly and unstable if powered by a smaller battery at full angle. FYI.Expensive for a small work light, but I went down the DeWalt road and now have a bunch of batteries and chargers so this purchase made good sense and I'm very happy with it.

This is the Dewalt DCL050 Type 12 version which is 300 lumens on low and 1000 lumens on high. It is more than sufficient lighting when working in one spotted area inside or outside. It is very useful when working on electrical switches, HVAC, or anything in the dark. The light bends 90 degrees and bends the opposite direction also. It is light weight so it can be easily handheld anywhere for convenience. I used a 20V max 1.5amp Dewalt battery which is the least powered battery but it lasted more than 3 hours and was still going after I finished my job on the 300 lumens setting. It also has a hook if you need to hang it. It is definitely worth buying especially if you already have Dewalt batteries. If you need to see far away or light up an entire room then you would need to consider other Dewalt flash lights or alternative but for everyday use, for spot areas, this is the best flashlight. It will not blind your eyes. It is just right. I strongly recommend this item!

I've been happy with all dewalt products I've bought so far. Just quality built things, at least for now.Here's the bad things I have to say about it:The light output is very bright and in a small area it can be overwhelming particularly if you need to put the light in front of you, it will end up being too bright, even on the low setting.If you have the smaller battery pack (like in my picture) it won't stand up on its own with the head tilted all the way back (so that the light faces upwards). It will fall over. With the larger battery pack the additional weight will keep it from falling backwards.With the (small) 2Ah battery on high setting it will not last all day, either. Maybe 3-4 hours? I'm not sure exactly. When it's running low the light starts blinking to warn you, and switches to low output, but still will only last a couple more minutes so you need to rush to get that new battery if that would leave you in the dark.But this is the benefit of a battery light, you can just swap it out real quick, or buy a larger one for the job.I'm 10/10 on it, love it. Well worth it.

Received this light in Dec 2024 and it has been great.Good battery life, good durability and two brightness settings.The hook is also convenient for working under the hood of a vehicle.

Fantastic light. So much better than the old DeWalt lights. Works great with any of the 20v batteries and puts off a lot of light. Very convenient to have in your toolbox.

So I originally bought this for use when camping out of my 4Runner I am converting into a camper. However, the first usage has been me working on the darn overly-ginger ECU's on Toyota 4Runners.The light perfectly hands by a useful hook off my hood's latch and provides a ton of light in my dimly lit garage.I went with this as I have quite a few DeWalt batteries now and figured this would be a great way not to drain my AGM and Li-Ion batteries on my 4Runner that I will use for other gadgets/lighting, etc.Battery power seems strong even on the small 1.5 aH slim 20v batteries I use often on my small driver for quick jobs. I did not power it all the way down but it stayed at the highest (3rd) power light on the battery using the worklight at full for at least 25 minutes or more.Considering how bright the highest setting is on that worklight- I am so far impressed.It could use a better way to go thru the light settings and some more options would be good like a red light (good for not killing your nightvision in the evening). Perhaps a blinking option on the hi setting for an "SOS" but that's something I hope never need to use and not typical of a worklight anyways.It would also be nice if the light rotated in other fashions other than just up and down. That would help a lot for when you cannot get the light to hang in the exact direct you want.It seems rather sturdy and even with the slim batteries has been staying up straight no matter the angle thus far. It seems like it should fail but it hasn't for me.The output and build quality were key points for me on this purchase and becuase of that I am quite satisfied so far with this light. Don't flash it in someone's eyes on that hi setting. It is darn bright.Lastly- it is not a spotlight so don't buy it for that though you probably could get by with it. It is not set up to "throw" a beam of light a far distance. It's more in the ranged of perhaps 14'? Haven't measured it out. Defintely will work as a lantern just needs to be for a small party of 1 or 2 folks so you aren't blinding everyone.

Manliest table lamp you can get for the money. plus you have 130° mobility...I'm literally using it for everything, even for going in the dark for a midnight snack. light is brighter than my future.don't waste your time and hit that "buy now" button ASAP.

This has been a great light for tasks around the house. Work lights like this are better than normal flashlights and cell phone lights. Highly recommend getting one.
