Makita DML806 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless L.E.D. Lantern/Flashlight Tool

Känns inte som 620 lumens, men det är det säkert. Något kallt ljus. Knappen som man växlar ljus med är sisådär, den blinkar till när man nuddar den (dvs innan den klickar till). Plasten känns ömtålig. Nja, lite halvdan kvalitet tycker jag. Hade förväntat mig mer av Makita. Värd 600kr? Nej, 300 kr hade varit mer rimligt. Ryobi R18ALH-0 är mer prisvärd tycker jag - dubbelt så dyr men ljusår bättre.

Perfecto dura muchísimo la batería

I does a decent job lighting up small rooms. There are three settings. The first setting lights up all the way around the cylinder. The second lights up one half of the cylinder, which is nice if you’re trying to flood away from your eyes. And the third is the light on top, which is more like a standard flashlight. The hook is nice for hanging it in the middle of the room you’re trying to flood with light. I use this thing all the time.

Great value-very happy

Bought both this and the LXLM03 to try out. I can't bring myself to return either. This one (the DML806) is my favorite and the one I find myself going to most, over the LXLM103, over even my favorite LED flashlights, over the corded retractable shop light plugged in and ready in the garage... Were it just a lantern and flashlight it would be good. To be able to switch between full and half lantern makes all the difference. One click for full lantern, second click turns one half of the lantern off for great, bright directional light. The flashlight is weak and sad by LED flashlight standards, but is sufficient, and the battery power makes up for the shortfall in flashlight brightness. It's sturdy, and stands up on its own on most flat surfaces, even those not perfectly flat. It also has a really neat swiveling hook to hang too. Fantastic for working on the car where it's tough to use a 100 watt bulb and hard to find a place to hook or lay it. Cool to the touch, no worry about the bulb getting to hot or burning oil off of the bulb or heating up your floor mats while you're under the dash... The plastic wipes clean easily. I was also sick of having a ton of flashlights all with 3 dead AAA batteries. Spend more time hunting batteries and changing batteries than I do using flashlights. If you have the other LXT Tools, you probably know how nice the Makita LXT Tools are. You probably also keep a charged or at least partially charged battery around. Being able to pick up a quick exchange battery and have a really fantastic light/lantern ready to go is a very nice thing. I probably wouldn't recommend this alone, but if you own the batteries and charger, there's not a better more versatile light out there. I can't speak to the battery life, as I haven't worn one out with it yet. If you're camping and have ever had to haul a lantern and 2 spare lantern batteries around, you'd have to appreciate the convenience of this. A LXT Battery and a spare would take up less space and weigh less than one set of lantern batteries, never mind a spare.
