Great Inexpensive BRIGHT Light.
by Cuba Rodriguez (5 out of 5 stars)
April 10, 2017

I work on vehicles and a variety of equipment & appliances. I have many different sized flashlights, headlights, and drop lights. I also watch some of the repair videos on YouTube, to keep up on vehicle changes and tips & tricks with common faults or issues. One of the channels I watch is "FordTechMakeuLoco" for the Ford models. Brian, on this channel, was one of the guys that recommended the Craftsman twin to this light, although I shopped around for an even cheaper version, & this CAT brand was it.

Some of the features I like:
1 Small & portable
2 Strong lights
3 Body feels rugged, even though it's made of plastic. Probably couldn't run it over, but should be able to withstand drops.
4 Has a rubber covered magnetic base.
5 Batteries seem to last many hrs; it's stated up to 7hrs. I have yet to change the batteries since purchase back in 2/2017 (**UPDATE** now 5/2017 and still have not changed the batteries. BTW, I use alkaline batteries, not rechargeable lithium, because they seem to last the longest when it comes to LED lights)

One of the things they could improve on is the pocket clip; instead of being plastic have it upgraded to metal.

In fact, the whole body should be metal so it would be the most rugged.

For the price, you can't beat the light output and over all quality. I've really liked this light for areas such as under the dashboard. I use the magnetic end to hang it up & I have use of both hands under there. It's 10x's better because it's so compact compared to drop lights or other lights, making the light out of the way for those tight areas.

I bought this from the seller "Amazon.com LLC", which I feel is important to list this info. I've come across sellers with variances in their items, including knockoffs, even if listed as same brand. I'll post an update with a durability review.

Very tough work light
by Arizona kid (5 out of 5 stars)
May 6, 2017

I keep two of these in my tool pouch and use them all day on the job. They have been dropped several times the light never even

flickers or goes off like the big Larry light dose. These seem to be better quality than the ones sold off the tool trucks. If you need

a very bright, basic, tough light light that can stand up to tough on the job or around the house use, this is the one you need.

I keep one in every vehicle and in the house.

P.S. Keep a piece of flat sheet metal (4X4) inch square in your car. If you have to change a tire at night you can stick the light to

the sheet metal then it you can set it on the ground and it will stay upright while you change the tire. hope this helps good luck old chaps.

Product of the year award
by Matt Atkinson (5 out of 5 stars)
March 11, 2017

I didn't think I would like a flashlight this much. The light comes out the side instead of the top which seems like a small thing but it's very cool in practice, hard to explain. It's so small you can put it anywhere. The magnet base means you can stick it at a right angle on a metal surface. I'm probably going to buy another one.

I just worked at a customer's site and they have an equipment rack with very low lighting. Usually I use my phone but this light frees up a hand and when you're in an awkward position in a dirty hot rack looking for a tiny black wire in a sea of black wires, you want this.

Oh and this thing is very bright. You can't look at it directly. Best tool purchase in the past year easily.

Dont Buy!
by P. Minges (1 out of 5 stars)
December 16, 2018

The batteries Overheated immediately. I made sure I was using Alkaline as required. I've never had such a bad experience with a battery product before or since. I took them out and tried the second flashlight with the same results. I was using Energizer Alkaline batteries that are working great in other products. Unfortunately I did not try them out in time to return them.

Impressive product
by D. Dickason (5 out of 5 stars)

I rarely write a product review even though I purchase a lot of things from Amazon as a Prime member. Most of the time the things I purchase are as expected and don't really need a comment. However, this product to vastly exceeded my expectations that I am compelled to write a review.

The light is exactly as described, but the light output is simply amazing. I have many LED lights and always expect them to be bright...but this thing is beyond what I expected. When I first turned it on in my garage during the day I was stunned by the brightness. When I turned it on after dark with all the lights out I was seriously impressed.

The pictures show the product by itself, the light it puts out sitting on the bench 10 feet away from my car in a dark garage and the light it projects when stuck to the underside of the hood in the garage with the lights off. It is so good that I intend to buy at least 6 more, one for each car, one for each bedroom nightstand and one to travel with me on business trips.

Thousand and one uses for the CAT Cob Light
by Jumpoffa (5 out of 5 stars)
March 30, 2018

The CAT Cob Light one of those treasured tools that you will be VERY HAPPY TO OWN! It is first and foremost a light, but boy what a light. It puts out 175 lumens, much like a flash bulb, so don't look directly into it you will see dots. If you are a mechanic you can light up that hard to reach area where normal lights fail to illuminate. The CAT Cob Light has a magnet on one end that will allow you to hang it from above, or off to the side or on top of engine block. You can look under tight spaces like under the stove without any problems or behind one of those tight spots.

The thing I love about the CAT Cob Light is that it is the size of pen. It can fit in your pocket. It has a clip that allows you to put it in your shirt pocket or it fits nicely in your wife's pocketbook. You can put it in your glove compartment in your car for those emergencies. You can keep one in the kitchen drawer instead of that old bulky flashlight. You can keep one near the night stand in your bedroom in case the power goes out. How many times do you need a flashlight but you don't have one available? Yeah sure, you can use your cell phone light but then you run down your cell phone batteries. With the Cat Cob Light you will have it handy and it will light up what ever you need to shine a light on.

There is a button on top that clicks like a button on a pen. You push this and the light comes on and floods the room with light. But if you lightly press on the button the light will turn off, until you remove your finger from the button and the light will come back on. What I am saying is that you can mute the light if you need to without actually turning it off. It is really great if you are a boy scout or cub scout and you want to practice your Morris code. If you walk the dog at night you can carry this light with you to light your way. Man, there are a thousand and one uses for this light.

This is a prepper's dream come true. The CAT Cob Light is light weight, sturdy, and universal in its uses. I have four, one for my wife's pocketbook, one for each car and one for use in the house. As I look around I see that I will need a few more. The price is right and the product is fantastic; so do yourself a great big favor and get a few while you still can, you won't regret it.

Poor quality
by Jeff N (1 out of 5 stars)
November 9, 2017

I bought this in May, and it worked great for the first three or four months. However, it then started to randomly become very dim, at which times I would have to hit the flashlight against something else in order to get it to return to full brightness. Now, after using this for almost six months, it's a piece of junk. It's really dim the vast majority of the time and I constantly have to hit it against other objects to get full brightness again. I also have to remove the battery cap twice a day, because removing the cap and putting it back on somehow fixes this issue for a couple of hours.

Conveniently, the warranty is only valid for three months. I will not be buying this again and I don't recommend this to anyone.

Works great, I had the old ones with craftsman/snapon brand ...
by Preston (5 out of 5 stars)

Works great, I had the old ones with craftsman/snapon brand that use regular 5mm leds and the new cob led on this blows them both away and it's cheaper too. Lowes sells something very similar right now and they brand theirs 220 lumens which I think is a lie. I would say this is legitimately 100-150 lumens as I have built custom high power led lights for 10 years.

I showed my friend and he liked them so much he ordered 14 on the spot for Christmas gifts to family and employees.

Can't go wrong with this light, I only wish it was lithium ion rechargeable.

Perfectly useful.
by D. Bergin (5 out of 5 stars)
July 24, 2019

You can tell some person or team put a lot of time and effort into ma,king a light that is extremely useful in many applications. (ESPECIALLY compared to the similar product by Harbor Freight.) This product is very lightweight, making it practical to clip to your pants pocket and carry without feeling distracted like you have a heavy weight on you --- also, for example, jogging, when you don't want to feel those wieights bouncing. The clip works extremely well, secure to your pants pocket. It's a "professional" clip, similar to that on the "Halt!" dog repellant spray. The on-off button is very handy, and is SIMPLE --- no need to go through different modes. Appears very water residtant. Although SMALL, it provides the light you need in a hurry, for something small --- not designed to light a big area --- buth the light it provides is extremely useful, handy, very quick to gram from your pocket and turn on in one second. ----- Lightweight --- BUT THE TYPE OF PLASTIC IS GREAT --- THINK OF IT MORE AS EPOXY, so it has a very nice feel, and you can tell that it's rugged and strong. This is a great light for the toolbox, glove compartment, carrying around on your pocket anywhere, everywhere. ----- The yellow color also is really helpful for quickly locating it in low light conditions. (The Harbor Freight one is black --- go figure.)
