Which one should you buy?

For most people the WARSUN Rechargeable Magnetic Work Light is the best all round buy, pairing a bright 1200 lumen COB flood, strong magnets and a hook with a large review base, all without tying you to a tool platform. Buy the OTYTY COB Work Light if you want the cheapest grab and go light, the NEBO Big Larry 3 if you want a recognised 3 in 1 light and torch, or the Stanley FatMax V20 if you already own Stanley 18V batteries and want a light that runs off them. Step up to the DeWalt 20V MAX if you are on the DeWalt platform and want trade grade build with the biggest review base here. Choose the Yofuly 300W Tripod only if you need to flood a whole room and have a power point nearby, since it is corded. The single best value, though, is the WARSUN.
