I just received a new work light. Been feeling the need for a better work light when I am getting at stuff under the bike and other equipment in the garage. I do have a clamp style flood lamp but that sometimes gets way too hot to be near and doesn't really get the light where I need it and sometimes just doesn't seem bright enough. I've been scoping out LED work lights for a long time now and dropped one that I liked in my Amazon wish list. It finally dropped in price a little and also added a 20% discount coupon check box. That made it among the lowest priced work lights even for those not as bright. The one I bought says 6000 lm (Lumins) in the title on Amazon but everywhere in the description and photos it says 5200 lm. I really wanted more than the common 2000 lm work light. I was thinking 3000 lm would be enough but this one was the same price and rated the same on Amazon for the 2000 lm.

This photo shows how bright the work light is. This is with the garage lights turned on. I have LED light bulbs in the garage so those are fairly bright but this work light makes them seem dark. The bike didn't look quite so dirty until I put the light on it. One warning though... DON'T LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE LIGHT OR EVEN CLOSE. The eyes will hurt if I do!
I do plan to get the bike washed when the weather warms up a bit. 33F today but will be in the upper 70sF sometime in the next week. This dirt is from riding in really cold temps between -2F and +30F.
