5W COB LED Gooseneck Work Light for Lathe Milling Drill Press & Workbench

I've wanted something smaller to replace the old incandescent light on my lathe. This works perfectly. Just the right length to attach to the top of the lathe and still be able to flex to see the inside of a bowl. Very bright. Holds its position well.

I bought two different lights to try. I kept this one and returned the other one. Then I went back and bought a second one. I like the ability to flex the light to where I need it and it stays in place. It is plenty long for my workbench, but measure before you buy. It is bright enough, but a little brighter would be nice. It is also warm to the touch, but not too hot to grab by the light end for repositioning. The neck and base are well made and should withstand the test of time.

I was looking for a brighter light with a longer reach for my industrial sewing machine after I broke the original can-type light. To be honest I didn’t have very high hopes because the cord doesn’t run down through the base and other reviewers had mentioned it wasn’t flexible at the bottom. However, I mounted it just off center of the original hole and unless you’re looking right at the base you can’t tell it’s just a bit off. The smaller connector in the middle of the wire to separate the light from the wall plug is a really nice feature so you don’t have to wire a wall plug while sitting under your machine! I’ve been using it for two days now and I am very happy with its performance! It’s flexible enough to reach around the machine when I need to fix something on the underside and long enough to get the light where I need it.

I use this light for my reloading bench for a specific area. It's been working good so far. It doesn't light up as much area as I was hoping for but it's been working out. It doesn't take of any space and is easily adjustable in seconds. I will eventually go pick up a fluorescent light and hang it from the ceiling but this is working out for now. It was worth purchasing.

I'm very pleased with the quality of this light. No cheap plastic anywhere, gooseneck flex isn't floppy and stays where you put it. I mounted it to a spare magnetic base that was sitting in my drawer and now have a very nice portable light I can move anywhere I need some extra light. The 5W is not "super bright" but it's fine for my drill press, bandsaw, etc.

Flimsy piece of crap

Will not take any sort of twisting of the head as that will cause the base threads to strip. But once set in JB Weld it works like it should. Nice bright light, if mounting to a wall, there is a slight sag in the neck. Besides that it stays where you point it. The on/off button also feels solid.

Was mounted with screws and easy to adjust.
