What to check before you order

  • Output and beam. Lumens indicate brightness. A spot beam reaches far; a flood beam lights a wide work area.
  • Power source. Choose disposable batteries, built-in rechargeable cells or a light that runs on your cordless tool batteries.
  • Run time. Check run time at the brightness setting you'll actually use, not just the dimmest mode.
  • Mounting. Magnets, hooks, clips and pivoting heads free up both hands under a vehicle or inside a panel.
  • Durability and ratings. Look at impact resistance and water resistance ratings for outdoor use. Use only lights rated for hazardous locations where your site requires them.

Browse all lighting, find spare cells in cords, power strips and batteries, or match cordless lights to your batteries and chargers.

Common questions

What does an IP rating mean on a flashlight or work light?

An IP rating, defined in IEC 60529, uses two digits: the first for protection against dust and solids and the second for protection against water. For example, IPX4 means splash resistant, while IPX7 means the light was tested for temporary immersion. An X means that part was not rated.

What does ANSI FL1 mean on a flashlight package?

ANSI/PLATO FL 1 is a standard for how makers measure and report light output in lumens, beam distance, run time, impact resistance and water resistance. Lights tested under it can be compared on the same basis, though real run time still depends on the mode and battery you use.
