ISO clip-on reading / camping lamp

Big clamp , head articulates to any imaginable position , bad zooming capability, powerful magnets on the side , 2 mode , 3AA
Big heavy chunky and does everything poorly . Great clip .

Yes the clamp part looks good thanks, have you got a link?

but I would prefer integrated with the light rather than futzing about with another connection.

This type would work well

but so cheap I doubt the light itself is great, also looking for more sturdy durable longevity.

Maybe from the world of video / photography?

Hmm…
I wonder why the Imgur image didn’t show up in line. :thinking:

the light is discontinued It’s a total bad gimmick light . That was kind of my point .

The goose neck light you posted is kind of like the ikea clamp lights . They are actually quite nice since they run an older desirable high cri osram led .
I kept finding them at the local thrift store for a buck so I have spares . I think they’ve changed leds a few times because mine isn’t what you’d call bright . I’m guessing 30-40 lumens and 4000k
The heads are shaped like the one in this video. .

Imgur has some kind of a rate-limiter that confuses the forum software and makes it not generate the output needed to display images inline. I edited the post like this to force it to display:

Where was that when I was younger?

Interesting, thanks and keep 'em coming :folded_hands:

My son and I have standardised on Milwaukee M18 for not just tools but general use powerpaks

mostly clones and rebuilds - wow the new batteries are pricey!!

So this ROVER Clamping Flood Light is of interest

lowest setting is 500lm though, and no beam adjustment, I think overkill maybe?

there is a replacement LED head kit though :+1:

By the way, this also seems to work, and it’s easier for me to remember.

That said, I don’t upload to Imgur anymore. :slightly_smiling_face:

Interesting! will just barely (maybe?) fit that big honkin’ BLF Q8 :astonished_face:

Are the different manufacturers the same quality? Link to best current value?

Klein Tools 56029 Clamping Worklight looks OK found for $13 delivered, worth a shot :person_shrugging:

But I sure love the (idea of the) M18, huge as it is - super clamp takes two hands. Apparently the HO batt paks are too deep or something, the OG XC 5.0 are the ones to use.
