I have always trusted Dewalt products and this flashlight didn't disappoint. It's the brightest flashlight I've ever owned and it runs for about an hour on a fully charged battery. I've been using it almost daily for two months and it seems very durable, I've already dropped it off my 6 foot ladder a few times and it just keeps going strong. The flat bottom and swivel head design make it an excellent work light, just set it down and angle the head to shine where you need it, freeing up both hands to do the job.
