This is my second BAYCO 2166 light. The first one I purchased through a recommendation of a salesman at my last job. I liked the hook setup, having a magnet on the top and side so you can change angles. I also appreciated the smaller light that the worklight offers. Being able to use it like a traditional flashlight is great.The downfall of this light is not the LED's. They are bright. Bright enough to blind you if you aren't careful. The poor materials in the handle and sad battery life make this light just not quite good enough. My first light went through 2 switches and cracked the base after merely tipping over on the cement floor. I bought this again a year later hoping that the batteries and construction were better and I must say this one was worse than my first one. The switch is great, but the magnet on the back fell out while the light was hanging, causing the light to drop, The plastic body around the back magnet was poorly made and thin, and upon further investigation I noticed the plastic was very grainy and crumbly. Pretty sad that such a light unit doesn't use plastic strong enough to support it's feather weight.I wish there was something like this Bayco light that was just built better, with a battery that lasted more than an hour and a half. The size and balance are great and the LED's are bright, I am just disappointed in the build quality.
