You’re probably looking at this, like me and wondering, “what’s the bundle bit then? Looks like just a light…”. To answer this, you simply have to realise it’s from Gtech and all becomes clear. Allow me to explain. Gtech came about from a want to make things easier for people at home. Part of that philosophy is a universal charger for all their products. You could buy the lamp all by itself if you already have a battery pack from another Gtech tool and happily power this light all you want. You could also use a universal charger to charge the battery up. So, this is why this is a bundle deal, even if it looks like just one thing. as you get the light, the charger and the battery pack for a reduced cost compared to buying them all together.
Now that that is out of the way, let’s look at the light itself. It can knock out an impressive 2000 Lumens when switched to the max setting or you can have a more moderate 900 Lumens for the minimal setting. If using the more conservative setting, the battery will last about 5 hours or so and about half this for the maximum setting. Given 900 lumens is still pretty bright, you can probably get away with the lower setting in most cases.
The design of the frame holding the light is clearly made for maximum stability in a busy environment with a wide-frame stance to help it stand up where you may not have a completely flat surface and the knobs on the side allow you to tilt it with a range of 100 degrees so it’s easy to angle it up or down depending on if you’re doing late night ceiling painting or skirting board touch-up’s once the sun has set.
