Faithfull Power Plus SLGRIPLE 5m 60W 240V Low Energy Trailing Gripper Lamp

Faithfull Inspection Lamp, FPPSLGRIPLEGood, sturdy inspection lamp with a long lead and supplied with a 10w LED GLS lamp - claims equivalent of 60w incandescent lamp.In case you are thinking of ordering a higher power LED lamp and are wondering what is the maximum physical size lamp that will fit inside the glass cover, then my approx measurements are max GLS lamp is 120mm Long x 65mm Diameter.For me there are also a couple of small niggles with it;-- there is no On/Off switch fitted. The only way to switch it off is to unplug it. Previous inspection lamps (different brand and from a long time ago) have had a switch as part of the body but this one doesn't.- the supplied LED lamp is 6400k which is a very harsh colour so I'm going to swap it out for something better. Don't know why they chose to supply such a harsh colour that many people won't like.- the glass lamp cover is held in place by a VERY strong metal over-centre clip arrangement. Too strong for me to open by hand so needs pliers or a screwdriver to lever it open.

This is described as small but is actually quite large. The light is bright and cold (daylight ?) The instructions could be better. I found it difficult to access the bulb cage to insert a bulb and eventually had to use plyers to open the lid at the top of the cage, which is far from obvious and very stiff. The handle grips which are used to open the jaws to clamp the light on to a support are VERY difficult to compress. I am no weakling but it took all my strength, with both hands, to open the jaws and hold them open long enough to clamp it on. Once these issues are overcome the light is certainly effective and I don't regret buying it.

not sure why people are complaining about the screw that they need to remove to replace the bulb being problematic? The cage has a lid that comes off (ok it's very stiff, but no need to unscrew anything).

I needed some temporary lighting in my kitchen (due to a delay in the electrician coming to fix the fluorescent). This inspection lamp fitted the bill perfectly. It's very bright and a solid build. Has a nice strong clamp and a long cable. Well worth the money.Was also impressed with Prime same day delivery.

This item gives off a very good light and has a very strong grip to attach to something for you to work under.The only reason I only gave it four stars was that the bulb stopped after only a couple of weeks !I have purchased spares and will see how long they last and I will update my review at a later date.
