    It's very similar to my Eastwood light that also folds the same way...one of the reasons for being able to fold it in a 90° is where the individual lights come in you can actually set it up as a floodlight if you're trying to work on a ball joint, changing brakes, or springs/shocks in a wheel well...very handy...
    Not only a hood light..I use mine under the dashboard..fold it up and it will light up everything underneath...
    7:00.. A 4ah 20V will last up to 8hours..

      Yep, it functions a lot like that light. I figured the 4Ah would last 6 hours or so, but we wanted to get a good test under our belts. Thanks for watching as always.

      @@Jarco101 it’s mostly preference. I recommend which ever platform you already have a battery for. With that being said what I’ve personally seen the Milwaukee is a little brighter, but it doesn’t fold. I prefer the Milwaukee only because I have a battery for it already and didn’t have to buy a new one. I also personally see Mac, matco, and snap on as over priced but that’s again personal preference. Buy the platform you’ve already invested in, and if you currently haven’t then figure out which platform makes the most sense for you. I like Milwaukee M12 because I can get every automotive tool I need on the m12 platform minus a mid torque/high torque

      @@garrettgiuffre5653 "literally pennies" ??? Milwaukee's comparable underhood light retails for ~$25 more, is not as bright, and doesn't fold for convenience, storage, or to stand up on the ground like this Dewalt does. Milwaukee doesn't have anything like this for cheaper that's for sure. That said, they are both great lights and can't really go wrong with either one. If you already are invested in one's battery platform then probably best to stick with that.
