Product Information

Full details

This 360° Swivel Inspection Light is designed for mechanics, DIY enthusiasts, and anyone needing versatile, hands-free illumination in tight spaces. Its key benefit is the highly flexible swivel and tilt function combined with powerful lighting, allowing you to direct light precisely where needed. A minor caveat is its specific charging method via micro USB, which might require an available port. This tool features seven bright SMD LEDs with a magnifier for broad illumination, a 3W LED torch for focused light, and multiple magnetic and hook attachments for hands-free use. It's powered by a long-lasting Lithium-ion battery, rechargeable via micro USB.

FAQs

What is the battery life on the different modes?

The light provides approximately 3 hours of operation on the side SMD LEDs on high, 7 hours on low, and 8 hours on the top LED torch.

How long does it take to charge the battery?

A full charge takes approximately 3.5 hours when using a standard USB power source.

Is the light water-resistant?

Yes, the light has an IP54 rating, meaning it is protected against dust ingress and splashing water from any direction.

Can I use the light while it is charging?

While it may technically be possible to use the light while charging, it is generally recommended to charge the battery fully before use for optimal battery health and performance.

What is the maximum and minimum length of the light?

The light has a minimum length of 255mm and extends to a maximum length of 270mm.

Does it come with a charger or just a cable?

The product is supplied with a micro USB cable for charging. You will need to use a compatible USB power adapter (not included) or a powered USB port.

What kind of battery does it use?

It uses a high-quality 2.2Ah Lithium-ion battery, known for its longevity, lack of memory effect, and slower discharge rate.

Troubleshooting

Light does not turn on

Ensure the battery is charged. Connect the micro USB cable to a known working power source and check the charging indicator light. If fully charged, try cycling through all modes. If the issue persists, contact support.

Light is dim or flickering

The battery may be low. Charge the device fully. If the problem continues after a full charge, there might be an issue with the LEDs or battery; contact customer support.

Magnets are not holding securely

Ensure the surface the magnets are attaching to is clean, dry, and made of a ferromagnetic material (like steel or iron). The magnets are strong but may struggle with very smooth or painted surfaces, or non-metallic materials.

Micro USB port is loose or damaged

Handle the charging cable and port with care. If the port appears damaged, do not attempt to force the cable. Contact customer support for repair or replacement options.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Highly versatile light positioning with 360° swivel and tilt.
  • Provides both wide-area illumination and a focused beam.
  • Excellent hands-free capabilities with multiple magnetic and hook options.
  • Long battery life and faster charging with Lithium-ion technology.
  • Durable construction with an IP54 rating for use in various environments.

Cons

  • Relies solely on micro USB for charging.
  • Brightness levels (400 lumens) may not be sufficient for extremely large or very distant areas.
  • The magnified lens might create glare if not positioned correctly.
  • Operating time on the side light (3 hours on high) might be limiting for very extended tasks without recharging.
  • Red color, while distinct, might not suit all aesthetic preferences.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Initial Charge: Before first use, fully charge the inspection light using the provided micro USB cable and a compatible USB power source (e.g., wall adapter, computer USB port).
  2. Power On: Press the power button to cycle through the light modes (SMD side light High, SMD side light Low, Top LED torch, Off).

Compatibility:

  • Charging: The micro USB port is compatible with most standard micro USB cables and power adapters. Ensure the power source provides at least 5V/1A for optimal charging.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe the exterior of the light with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the casing and lens.
  • Storage: Store the light in a dry place when not in use. Ensure it is switched off to prevent accidental battery drain.
  • Battery Maintenance: The Lithium-ion battery has no memory effect. For long-term storage, it's best to keep the battery partially charged (around 50-70%) rather than fully depleted or fully charged.
  • Lens Care: Gently clean the magnified lens with a soft microfiber cloth to maintain clarity. Avoid touching the lens directly with fingers.
