Guys , I have always struggled finding a bright small work light , tried every inspection lamp made , they constantly fall over , drive me nuts and I have found this belter . Pipe slice to give you an example of size , not cheap £36 but fits in the toolbox and does the job . Google UniLite mini .

Is it your design and product it looks very well . centralheatking
 
Been using the lantern with the swivel head for 10yrs, ok it`s bigger but has a shoulder strap and is ace for the times I have to go chasing pipes in attics and having the swivel head I get the light exactly where I want it whilst working. Might get the one you show for the toolbag though.
Your post made me go to their website and I see the lanterns are now LED

Yep its the fact it fits in the toolbox that makes it a winner in my book
 
I've got the Dewalt LED lamp - that uses the same batteries as all of my usual cordless stuff

a 4Ah battery lasts about 4 hours

OK so I might get ripped for this but I tend to by my torches from Ali Express!

So far they've be absolutely spot on.

Anybody else tried them?

Why not? I used to buy my mini Cree torches from China a couple of quid at a time via Amazon. Brilliant, well made things that I use daily that also make great gifts.

I’ve had a few rechargeable pocket torches for only a few quid each, best thing about them is they can be recharged in the van without getting in the way, plus there’s a whole other world of counterfeit good to peruse!!! 🤑. Only drawback with AliExpress and DHGate is there’s no guarantee on the delivery time.

Absolutely true about delivery times, particularly at the moment due to chinese new year and the corona outbreak!
