Milwaukee Tool is known for its cordless tools and for improving old tool designs. Work lighting was no different in the eyes of Team Red, and it needed improvement and upgrade. Introducing not one, not two, not even three, but four new Milwaukee Rover lighting products to add to their tools.
In Blackest Night or Darkest Corner
You need to see how to do your work; that’s undeniable.
But sometimes, you can’t bring a work lamp onto your site. But then you remember that “handy” flashlight from the supermarket. Only to realize it’s not bright enough for you to see. What do you do then? With Milwaukee’s newest lights, you can have a light that will be bright but not blinding.
Other personal lights avoid higher lumens, but that means you get softer or opposite light, and you have a blinding beam you can’t see through. Milwaukee’s new lights range from 300 to 550 lumens, allowing your light to shine further. All the while not sacrificing the brightness you need and giving you a warm glow for your work area.
All the lights come with a variable light stage setting, allowing you to tailor your light to fit your job. So you can have one perfect for pinpointing a specific spot on the job site and another that can illuminate a whole work area.
But in the dark, unexpected things can happen, and you drop your light. However, these lights aren’t delicate and can take a drop or two. If you know you are a clumsy worker, these lights also have clips to secure them to any belt or shirt. All are also water and dust-resistant, which is perfect for any job site.
Milwaukee Rover: It’s Above, Behind, or Beside You
Designed to fit your job situation no matter where. In an electric box or any place with a metal case, 2113-21, 2114-21, and 2108 all have magnetic bases that can stick to most metal surfaces. Thanks to the pivoting heads on the 2113-21 and 2114-21 models, you can also adjust the light. Giving you light where you need it to get the job done.
The magnetic bases free up your other hand to get your work done faster, along with their pivoting heads, which can adjust so you don’t have to keep moving the whole light to shine on your work. These features save time on the job site. No more unneeded postures to hold a light stable so you can see. Also, it can relax one trades professional who is still afraid of the dark (you know which one.)
Hang it above your head to illuminate everything beneath you. Prop one up behind you to have an arc of light. Even have one in your shirt pocket or on your belt to shine on where you’re working.
Rechargeable and One-Time Use Batteries
In an exciting move by Milwaukee, they offer two new lights to run on standard batteries. The ROVER is operating on two AAs and the 325L on three AAAs.
This move will give those who don’t want to invest in the battery platform an outlet to try the Milwaukee line. Great for those who don’t want to spend in a tool line they might not like. The tools will still be up to Milwaukee’s standards of construction. While giving the option to use any batteries lying around in your truck, your toolbox, or at home.
While those who are invested into the Milwaukee line or would like to be. You can choose between the Rechargeable ROVER Flood Light or the Rechargeable Pivoting Flashlight. Both come with a REDLITHIUM USB battery that can charge via micro USB.
Final Thoughts
You don’t want to work in the dark, and you don’t want to have to wear sunglasses inside to do a simple job. Milwaukee has created a medium for the personal light segment of tools. That way, you can still see without looking away or squinting at the work area.
These tools are perfect for jobs with you working in dimly lit areas. These lights will get the job done and ensure you get it done in comfort, quick, and efficient.
