It isn't all that bright compared to a traditional droplight with a 100-watt incandescent lamp, but it's adequate for confined spaces where the 100w droplight is too bright and too hot. Like working under the kitchen sink.The cord is very stiff, which can be awkward. This is a big problem in use. If I got another such light, I would buy it with the 6-foot cord, and install my own 25-foot cord using a better grade of SJO rubber portable cord.The magnetic hook is a joke -- it promptly attached itself to some part of the machine I was working on, and was lost the first time I used the LED worklight. I have not bothered to retrieve the hook. A traditional steel hook would be more useful.An alternative is to get a traditional droplight and install a 75-watt edison-base LED light (I prefer Philips) in place of the incandescent lamp.

I like this light. It's not terribly bright though, and sometimes its a pain to get the light to point in the right direction using the magnet. We lost the hook that comes with it within days of use.
