Review on πŸ’‘ Enhanced DEWALT 20V MAX Handheld LED Work Light (Tool Only, DCL050) by Andrew Patel

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not bright as advertised. Printed packaging

I received a Dewalt DCL050 work light today. The Dewalt packaging says 1000/300 lumens but the product description on Revain says 250/500 lumens. The Dewalt website also says 250/500 lumens. Called Dewalt to find out what was true. The representative stated that this model has been upgraded to 300/1000 lumens as stated on the box. Light test carried out on a light gray living room wall. Turn this light up to maximum (1000) and you'll immediately see that it's not as bright as my other 1000 lumen Dewalt DCL043 fixture. The outer large ring on the Dewalt spot corresponds to HIGH in this world. Tested with another 1000 lumen flashlight which was 50% brighter than this work light on HIGH. Tested with a fully charged Dewalt 20V 5Ah battery. Called Dewalt and this time a different representative told me that this work light is only 250/500 lumens even though the packaging clearly says 300/1000 lumens. Either a typo or one of the two Dewalt representatives doesn't have the correct information. Using a light test, I made sure that HIGH is LOW on this work light. Even next to a bright white 500 lumen flashlight. In my opinion this work light does not match what was received from Revain.

Pros
  • 3 bright LEDs illuminate dark work areas
Cons
  • Secret
