Works great when it will power on...
5 years ago
Super bright
Multiple mounting options
Long battery life
The reason for the 2 star review is the power & mode button. Seems it stopped wanting to turn off and on. Getting it on can be as simple as hitting power once today and tomorrow hitting it as many times as it makes me stop and use a plug in light I keep as backup.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Nice Light. Too bad the power button broke.
4 years ago
Looks like others have the same issue. The power button is intermittent.
Very frustrating and disappointing. Didn't have a backup floodlight with me, so this defect cost me lost time.
The reason for 1 star review is it's does not work as it should. Less than 2 years old and used it about a dozen times.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Great little light
2 years ago
This light is great! It is very versatile with the clamp and magnet. The light is very bright and if you want to save on battery life you can lower the output of the light. This is helpful since in utah this time of year it gets dark out very early. I would highly recommend this light.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Love this portable LED light! With the adjustable intensity levels and a super strong magnet it really makes working in confined spaces easy. When I’m done I put the light in my service truck tool space and the magnet holds in place even traveling on rough terrain.

Switch is intermittent
a year ago
The switch became intermittent within 6 months of occasional use. Based on the many reviews stating the same, can you send a new switch? I like the light when it works. I have a lot of Milwaukee tools and would like to know that you stand behind your product.

Great concept and love the mounting options, however you can not rely on the unit Turing on or off when you press the button. Unpredictable at best but mostly useless. This has caused me to question not just if Milwaukee is worth further investment.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Great versatile light the magnets and foot system work well but it won’t always stick exactly how you place it on some thinner sheet metals with the bigger batteries. Overall I’d buy it again or try the m18 model because of it’s adjustable led panel

Broken switch
5 years ago
I have 2 of these I use lightly around the house and outside when I need a extra light. The design is great, the engineering is not. The switch broke recently making it difficult to turn on and off. I’m not sure how this would survive a job site.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Power switch issue

I am glad to see that others have had an issue with the Power button. It has been challenging to turn it off and on. I believe that Milwaukee should replace these given the number of customers who have had this issue.

Decent if you can find a deal

It's not too heavy...I found the magnetic base does NOT hold as well as I've seen in some video reviews. The gripping base is nice. Higher lumen output and an adjustable angle would also be welcome.

Great light, but the magnets could be stronger.

Sheds great light, but the magnets don’t hold real well to the bottom of a car. I keep it on the side of my toolbox and it fall off quite often. Good thing it’s durable.

So Bright
8 years ago
I bought this waiting for mid october release through preorder, must have waited 1 month for this beast. The majority of my tools in my trade all use M12 and even have the stick with the overpriced magnet and evern the 3 way LED lamp that does 180 light and 360. So after hearing about Milwaukee releasing a FLOOD LIGHT, I immediately wanted to get one. I work in new construction and roughs and this flood light will light up a corner of a room that is 15'*15' easy maybe 20'*20* or more in the pitch dark. If you have it at the right setting and close enough to your work area and you'd swear it was daylight. The Magnets are also very strong and will hold onto 26 gauge ductwork no problem. The only cons I have for this is there is no built in hanger, and there is ONE draw back, if you have this thing on the highest setting and your running a 3k or 3ah battery, it's only gonna last 3 hours. Granted, rarely am I in a situation where I am working in a dark corner or basement or attic to illuminate a large area for 3 hours straight. Also there is the 6ah/6k M12 battery out, still waiting on delivery for mine but I am sure the 6.0 Battery and this Flood Light is like marriage. THe only cons i have for this is there is no built in hanger,
