I'm dumbfounded that after all of these years, DeWalt still hasn't corrected the ongoing problem with the flexible neck being too wimpy to hold up the light for very long. I thought, jeez the most recent review looks to be 2011, there should be an improvement by now... lol, nope. I finally removed the thing, got one of those magnetic base work lights with a stiffer goose neck, stuck it to the DeWalt metal stand, problem solved for now. I may try mounting the Dewalt light directly to the stand by drilling two holes, bolt it down and orient the goose neck vertical instead of horizontal... it might possilbly bear the weight of the lamp better and not sag.
