It looks like that one does not come with a strap. Did you buy that
or one of the choices with a strap? As I don't have anything right
now, I guess I would need to get a strap one way or the other.<br><br>

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.<br><br>
I started doing some longer jobs in the shop (e.g., working on my '54 MG
TF replacing the rear springs, going through the brakes, etc.), and they
tend to run down in the middle of a job, and then you need to put your
greasy hands on them to change them out, etc.<br><br>
I recently bought this Klein for $30 from Home Depot (free shipping) and
it lasts 9 hours on high and 17 hours on low. It is just the thing for
the longer jobs:<br><br>

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 quickly
if you want a stationary light.<br><br>
As I have gotten older, I need better lighting, and having both hands
free and having a bright light trained on whatever you are looking at is
a real godsend. <br>
<br>
Not only is it more convenient, I find that I am faster and do
better-quality work because I can just see better now, especially fitting
nuts in tight spaces, trying to find dropped parts in engine bays, all
work underneath the vehicle, etc.<br><br>
