Many jobs require special lighting, but for some people (like auto technicians and plant maintenance workers) your next job could be in an out of the way place, underneath a vehicle, or high in the air. For these tasks, you can’t depend on standard lighting fixtures, and you need a dependable source of portable light. That’s why many people turn to LED portable work light products. Here are some of the good things they have to offer.
No Installation Needed
A high-quality portable light goes where you need it. You can choose models with cords all as long as 50 feet in length. Just tap into the nearest power source for your lighting needs. When your task is done, it’s a simple matter of unplugging your light and moving on.
Convenience
An LED portable work light is convenient and easy to use. Choose a model with a cord reel, and you only use the amount of power cord you need. This helps to avoid tripping hazards. When finished, the cord easily winds up and out of the way. Some models also have a tool tap, so you have a quick and easy source for a power tool.
The Power of LED
You can choose an incandescent, fluorescent or LED portable work light and all the best models give you great service. However, you’ll enjoy the greatest efficiency with LED light. It uses far less power than standard bulbs and less than fluorescent. A typical LED bulb can last for as long as 20,000 hours or longer, depending on the type of bulb your light has.
A good LED light burns cool to the touch. This is an important feature for mechanics and maintenance people because you won’t get burned if you accidentally touch the light. When you add up all the benefits, a good LED portable work light is a great investment.
