Handy to Have!
My brother gave me 1 of these & I love it! Battery lasts forever, head tilts in various directions, I use it all the time around the house, basement, outside.
Durable.
Great light, long runtime, always clicks on. Never had an issue with this light.
Super bright, extreme battery life.
I've owned this for roughly 6 years, I has never failed me. Albeit I don't use it a ton, When I do need it It is SUPER handy, and lights up the entire room.
Great for dark places
I love the yellow easy to find. Battery life is great. You can adjust the aim of the light. Used it for work working on cars. Now use it at home for various projects. I have had it for about 10 years
No bulb replacement?
Good, bright light, but bulb failed, and guess what? No way to replace it. What gives, Dewalt?

Amazing work light.
Often led lights like these are not bright enough, or bulky and hard to position for the work you are doing, not so with this one. The metal hanger hook on top and slim design are ideal for any work area and its almost too bright. Love this thing and it hardly uses any battery for hours of use plus its adjustable head makes lighting any project a cinch.
Not as bright as I expected….
Not too happy with this light. It’s okay, but not near as bright as I expected.
Works great, till it gets warm.
The light is great for small areas, under the hood, etc. The light is bright enough for the job you are doing. However.... There is 1 major flaw. If the light is on continuous for moderate-long period of time (I'd say 40 minutes + then the light will start to blink.... and continue to blink non stop till it cools down. At first you think the battery is low... but this is not the case. Batteries still fully charged. I own many DeWalt tools.... this is the first one to let me down.
Unexpected winner
This came with a kit I bought and I really never thought I'd use it, as it turns out I use it 3 or 4 times a week. It also uses very little power, I had it on for several hours and used less than one bar on my 5ah battery.
Weak
Used it about 5 times and it stopped working will never waste my money on a Dewalt light again.
Good flash light
Good flashlight...use mainly around the house and when I'm doing repairs under my home. Light is bright and lasts along time
Great Work Light
I work in the electrical field. It is important for me to have a good light to work with the power off. This light is bright and strong. I can sit it down and angle the light. I would recommend this light
Best little flashlight ever
I bought this led light few months ago.i needed a light to last awhile for working. Got tired of keep changing batteries on my other light. I bought it stuck a 2.0 battery in it n last for hours before switching batteries. A great led light. I would recommend this light for it’s lasting on 1 battery and rugged.
Lights the whole room!
This flashlight is a superior product. I have discovered that I can sufficiently light a 200sqft room simply by turning the head up and banking the light off the ceiling. Great to work with!
Super bright light
This light is one of the best it will light everything up
Bright, but now blinks after it heats up
I loved this product, but found after it's on for just a few minutes, the device will blink off for a second, then turn on for about 10 seconds and continue to repeat. I think the light is getting too hot. If I turn off to let it cool down a few minutes, it will stay on solid until it heats up again. Not useful for a dark space when this continue to happen! And YES, the battery is charged!
Great features
Great working light but switch quit working in a 1-1/2 years.
Very handy with great features!
We are having our bathroom remodeled & the contractor left it at our house overnight. I was masking off our master closet to paint it & used the light to illuminate where I had to tape. Like it so much, I went out the next day & bought one for myself!
Lightweight Great Illumination Work Light
Bought this for work around the garage. Very portable, great lighting with 110 lumens. Also, can use for tracking in the woods for Deer.
Good for small areas
This is easy to use and put it in different angles. The ring in the top makes it easy to hang it.
Handiest light ever!!
I've had this light almost a year and I've had great service out of it. I keep it in my truck but use it in the house pretty often also. I really should get another. It is probably my favorite DeWalt tool.
Bright and versatile
I bough this for on the job but since have left. I still use it at home regularly for certain areas of the house that does not have enough lighting, or the lights take too long to get to peak brightness. This flashlight has came in handy and even when I dropped it, it still works. I love Dewalt products for home and work, I’ve started switching from my other brands.
Powerful light
Very bright light for as small as it is. Shine's great distance as well.

Rugged and very well built
I’ve had the chance to use this light for a couple weeks now and it’s very solid and doesn’t eat batteries. It’s tough enough to handle day in and day out use. Couldn’t be happier with it
works well
I have only used this a few times, but it has worked great every time
Best light I’ve ever had!
I have this light at work and it amazed me the first time I used it. It is the brightest working light I’ve seen. It even works from floor to high (30’+ ceilings.
Great Multi-Purpose Light
I just wanted a nice heavy duty flash light option and this one filled that need. It’s durable and heavy enough to stand up on its own for hands free use. Great product!
Excellent Work Light For The Price
This work light is excellent, only thing I would like to see Dewalt do is make a brighter lumens cordless light.
Short Lifespan
I used this light once, it worked great, the next time it was non-op.
nice light but burnt out after 3 years of minimal
used for just over 3 years at home, not much use. I turned it on and it just started to smoke. I feel it should have lasted longer.
Flashlight gets hot, shuts off and started to melt
Flashlight gets hot, shuts off and started to melt. Have two, same situation with both.
Great work light
excellent battery life, all room brings to light A++, I used all nights since hurricane Maria hits PR
Great little spotlight
Great little light if you trying to look farther away kinda like a small spotlight, the 3 led 500/250 lumen is a better work light, use this only If your using for a spotlight, back light* for spotlighting areas of fabrication on semi trailers personal use* , bright for it's size.
DCL040
So far its been great, would like a little longer hook for hanging. Works great for me in tight spots because of its compact size.
"WE LOVE THIS DeWALT LIGHT"
WE HAVE BEEN USING THIS LIGHT FOR TWO WEEKS WE LOVE IT.
Can't stop guys from borrowing it
Best flashlight in my toolbox. Super bright, stays put, one charge on a 1.5ah battery can last me all day. Only thing that could make it better would be a magnet so I can hang it on steel stud.
Nice Product
I have left this light on for 2 days and it is still bright as ever.
Very bright light
very nice addition to my dewalt collection
WOW
First night I had this my 4 year old son used it as a night light....on its initial charge out of the box it lasted over 6 hours. Its super bright and light and easy to use....Plus it keeps my son busy for hours when I'm not using it!!
Nice
Fantastic light, variable brightness would be super nice but its great as is.
Wow
Can't be without it, a must have.
