DEWALT 20V MAX LED Work Light with Stand, Tripod Light (DCL079B)

DEWALT

Portable tripod-mounted light moves to wherever supplemental lighting is needed

  • Portable tripod stand
  • 3,000 lumens
  • 3 brightness modes
  • Runs on 20V MAX battery

Pros

  • Portable tripod-mounted light moves to wherever supplemental lighting is needed
  • Adjustable tripod stand directs light at low angles for seeing surface texture and defects
  • Raking light from a low angle reveals surface defects (glue squeeze-out, planer marks, scratches) invisible in overhead light
  • Shares a battery platform with other DEWALT 20V MAX tools already in the shop

Cons

  • Portable lights are not a substitute for adequate overhead general lighting
  • Tripod stands take floor space, and the battery is sold separately on the bare tool
