Tools and Hardware Reviews of DEWALT DW919 18-Volt Flexible FloodlightCustomer Review: Disappointed, reflector substandard and discolored quickly Summary: 2 Stars
Received this today, and after testing this light by leaving it on for about an hour, the beam developed a multicolored blue band around the edge. This is due to the plastic reflector overheating and becoming discolored. I opened the light up and the plastic had a burnt smell to it. Basically a poor design as the light is unable to handle the amount of light / heat that the bulb produces over a normal period of time. Do not recommend purchase of this unit as the reflector issue ruins what is otherwise a nice light.
Customer Review: Disappointing Product Summary: 2 Stars
The DW919 is unstable and falls over when the neck is extended forward past a certain point. You can bend the lower neck back and the upper neck forward to partly compensate for this but this limits how far the light can be extended. Also the neck is not stiff enough to maintain all positions of the light. DeWalt need to improve this product.
Customer Review: Don't be fooled by what DeWalt calls "flexibility" Summary: 3 Stars
I should say something about DeWalt that not a lot of people know. DeWalt and Black&Decker are one company. So what is behind that black and yellow casing could be Black&Decker!! ( Please don't misunderstand me, I am not saying it is; it could be-what is inside of a Lexus is a Toyota-Don't be fooled by advertising and what other people think ) Many pro. tool users will probably agree with me that DeWalt is not an industrial brand; it is premium household!Anyway, about this light, I am very happy with the amount of light it produces and the length of the time with one charge. (I have the 14.4v) But, there is a problem. The reason why I bought this light is the problem, the flexibility. There is really no flexibility. This light will NOT be flexible as you would think it will. It will loose the balance and will fall. I used it for about a month, got tired of it and got the regular version of this light. That will do anything this "flexible" light does and saves me about 400-500% time on tiring to change the light angle.
Customer Review: Essential purchase for any 18v dewalt owner Summary: 5 Stars
This flashlight should be on every 18v DeWalt owners must have list.
An excellent value combined with outstanding function.
Nicely done DeWalt.
A nice upgrade would be a LED bulb kit, otherwise perfect.
Customer Review: Excellent product Summary: 5 Stars
In my humble opinion, Dewalt makes a great product. This light is no different. If I could change one thing, I'd have an attachment for the base to make it broader. If the light is at too much of an angle, it tips over.
