Yes, I  was slow to adopt them too (I thought it was frivolous as =
mentioned before) and started off with a cheap pair as a gift that =
actually worked quite well. I first used them crawling under the house =
to do some plumbing. They have about 4 hours of battery life and are =
good enough for that type of work. I found myself relying upon them more =
and more for all sorts of work.

=20

I started doing some longer jobs in the shop (e.g., working on my '54 MG =

They make brighter ones as well, but I find that this one is just about =
perfect for doing mechanical work in the garage. It also detaches =

I recommend, if you a member of Costco, check them out.  They usually =

No I don't know how I lived so long without such a thing.
