Review on Youyoute 2Pack COB LED Work Lights - USB Rechargeable, Magnetic Base, 360° Rotate, 5 Lighting Modes, Swivel Hook, Water-Resistant, Portable Inspection Lights (Small & Large Size) by Alejandro White

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A little banged up, but nifty little lights

Just got these, so will update if the battery life is not up to snuff, but am really impressed with these little guys. As you can see, they arrived like they had been in a recent drop-kick competition, despite perfect outer Walmart packaging, but the lights were fine, and had a decent charge to test them out before giving them a full charge, which took a few hours. These are not the highest quality things on the planet, one of the clips on the bottom, presumably for hanging on something, fell off as I took it out of the plastic sleeve. The charging port, a USB micro with included cable, is covered with a rubber port to keep it dry. I pulled both off immediately, as they are a pain to get around when charging, and for my use dry most of the time, and they will fall off later anyway.I am using the lights in a work room, and the magnetic base is cool, there is a heat duct above my head that they attach to, making them a few feet away at a given moment. They have a pretty bright light, and make soldering and working in tight spaces a breeze with their adjustable angle. The only drawback for the price I see are:Adjusts on a hinge in 2 places on the device, making it easy to angle at what you want, but it would be better if they also rotated to make it even easier.The light has Hi, Low, and a single light (on the tip) settings. The single light setting is pretty much useless - maybe if you were in a cave and wanted to conserve battery while you lamented your predicament or something, otherwise it seems like you wont notice and just leave it on instead of cycling all the way to off, draining the battery.The small light does not have a ton of light, and seemed to drain fairly quickly. On the plus side, if using on a bench, you can just USB it if you reach the end of the battery.
