The light is bright enough but its not a flood light. Its more like a flashlight. B&D should pay more attention to the light dispersion. Its ok but, I wish it was more like a normal work light. I bought this light because it uses AA batteries because their much cheaper than manufacture rechargeable battery packs. Battery life is surprisingly long. After a month of use the light is still strong. I give the Mini Bright Bar 3 stars because of the light dispersion which limits its effectiveness. I won't buy another one unless the light dispersion problem is fixed. |
