> 24 hourThis light I suppose is good enough. It is really bright. It does come charged but it also comes with its own charging cord. So now that makes me 1.2 million electronic charge cords laying around. The magnet on it isnt as strong as one would think giving that its holding its own weight against whatever its sticking to. But it doesnt. I stuck it on the refrigerator and it wanted to fall off. So Im thinking if you hang it or stick it to the hood of a car that youre working under it might not hold. And it might hold but if you barely hit it might just fall off. I dont know. What I do know is that this sucker is bright. Theres two ways to turn it on, one you turn it on in the tip of it is it lights up and gives you like a pinpoint of a light. Then the other button when you push it it lights both sides up so if you hang it in the middle of your hood or wherever you get light on both sides. And I think thats fantastic. This would make a great gift. I actually dont know anybody that would not like this, especially somebody that does mechanic work or outside work. Other than the fact that I think the magnet is a little weak its worth it. I gave it four stars simply because of the magnet.

> 24 hourI gotta say, Im impressed! I have had rechargeable flashlights in the past, but none of them have been that great. Rechargeable often means less power or, in a flashlight, less light, and heavy to carry! This light is a game changer for me! I had about given up on getting a reliable and practical flashlight--one that had power AND didnt require me to feed it batteries wayyyy too much. No more smacking the flashlight against your hand, counter, car or trash can to get it to work! Nobody wants to have their battery go out mid way through a project, especially if this is their only light source. The flashlight charges using a type C charger, which is included, but out of curiosity I tried using my phones charger cord and it worked great too. This flashlight works in several different modes, and is pretty versatile as far as lights go. Easy learning curve too, which for me is important because I dont have a lot of time or patience to learn how to use another tool. How many times you push the button determines whether the top or side light comes on, and how bright the side light is. There is a dial that you turn for the other side light, which you can adjust--with all of the lights going full blast you are going to have more than enough light to do about anything. (Unfortunately, this includes fixing the dial on the dryer...yknow, the one you have been putting off fixing.) Another feature--one I didnt know I would even want--is that there are indents on the sides, so even if your hands are wet or dirty, you dont drop the flashlight! Oh yeah, there is also a hook on the end. This is plastic, and not super sturdy, so Im guessing the flashlight itself will still be going strong long after the hook breaks. I also reallly like the swivel feature on the magnet end of the flashlight that allows you to point in different directions. Make sure you have it pointing where you want before you attach the magnet to anything, because that magnet is strong, and the light is easier to adjust with two hands. I am definitely happy with how well this flashlight works and plan of getting more as gifts!

> 24 hourLiked: brilliant white light, comfortable grip, strong built-in magnet and hook on base for suspending light above work area. Also liked modes on button switch which cycle through top spotlight, back lamp at 50%, back lamp at 100%, and off. There is also a useful roller switch which controls continuous dimming for both lamps from 100% to 10%. Only wish for a red/green LED indicator lamp to show charging ongoing and charging completed. However, since this battery has overcharge protection, I feel comfortable keeping the supplied type-C USB charging cable connected all night to ensure a fully charged battery in the morning.

> 24 hourIf you dont want to read the whole review, some highlights: - battery life over 6 hours (when only one side is turned on). - light intensity control is great (works only for one side) - USB-C port for charging works great - memory function - light will turn on the same mode you left it at I put this light to work as soon as i received it, I didnt even have time to charge it, so my initial impressions are based on whatever charge it came with. This light is very bright, i love how you can change the mode with the single button that will cycle through each mode, but the manufacturer was smart enough to know customers (like myself) can get annoyed by such action. What they did was add a second way to controll the light - a knob that will turn on both sides of the light and control the intensity. This is great as i dont want to press a button five times to turn on a light, so now I can simply dial the light to the intensity i want and be done with it. Battery life is very good. I was doing some drywall work in my basement and needed extra light for the top edges, so I hooked the light to some wires on the celing and turned on only one side. Then I forgot I had the light there and I went upstairs. The light worked for over 5 hours and still had quite a bit of charge when I came back - it ran for another hour or so (mind you it didnt even start with a full charge). Two other great features: USB-C charging (instead of the outdated micro usb, that many manufacturers still use), memory function on the mode you leave the light on (you dont have to cycle trough all the modes every time). I really like the memory function, it works like a charm. I typically leave the setting on a single light, that way i can use the button to turn on only one side, or the knob to turn on both sides. Im not very impressed with the magnet. On my work bench all metal bars are such that the light must hang horizontally. When you hang the light vertically, the magnet holds very well. However, in horizontal position the magnet barely holds, it doesnt take much force to bump it out of place and the light falls. To the manufacturer: upgrade the magnets on the next itteration of this light. Great light overall, its a keeper.

> 24 hourThis light is different than others I have bought. It is thin and can fit in between car parts easily. Also it is unique in that it has a dial to control the 2 side light brightness.... Overall pretty versatile in use. Magnet is strong. Battery lasts pretty long. I light the bright green. Easy to find. I would recommend this for car work at night when you are in a pinch and need to get into tight spaces. Charges with USB c... Yay...

> 24 hourI have a larger work light in the trunk attached with magnets but I wanted something smaller for quicker jobs. The leds are fantastic and I can see the design was carefully considered to make it a superior product.
