This thing is so bright, nice quality but really haven't found any use to it, just obnoxiously big and bright, maybe spotting things in the woods?

This does not come with the charger, but you can select the one that does from the drop-down for an extra $10.

I have one, but it doesn't see a lot of use. The reality is you can find a more compact, higher lumen/output flashlight alternative for less money. I wouldn't advise using this for walking at night. Most recently, I used mine while packing my car outside the garage at night for a trip early the next morning. It's easy to grab for a quick source of light in/around your shop.

This appears to have three light levels with a max of 3,200 lumens. What is approximate brightness of the other levels and approximate run time of the included battery?

Here's are the specs:
For control, there are three brightness settings— high (3200 lumens), medium (2000 lumens), and low (1000 lumens). When you turn the spotlight on, it starts on the high setting according to protoolreviews.com

Between 8-10 Hour runtime (depending which website you look at) using an 18V 6.0 Ah MAX Output Battery, this is probably at the low brightness level so my guess with a 2ah regular battery will provide 2-3 hr of battery life. Just a guess. I would use a 4ah battery on this light and use the 2ah for the smaller spot light.

What? Not good for walking at night? Maybe you mean it's too big? Certainly you can't mean it's not bright enough. This thing is extremely bright and throws light longer than any other spotlight I've owned. I think you'd be very hard pressed to find a much smaller light that's as bright.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank MagentaRaccoon2930

This thing is FANTASTIC. This lights up virtually our whole property at night when I go out to our garage of down to get the mail. I have to point it away from the road at the "T" at the bottom of our driveway when cars are coming or they think it's a car pulling out of the driveway. Brightest spot light I've ever owned.

I own it, it's a great spot light, bright enough that I can illuminate our whole big yard and far up into the forest to check for bears and dear, etc. I don't know how far, I never measured, but far, real far. I used it with a 4.0Ah battery and don't use it for longer periods of time, but I suspect the run time will not be an issue for the way the vast majority or people would use this light.

This is good for roadside emergencies. Not sure if it still comes with a cigarette lighter adapter like my old one.

Any reason to get this over the hercules one that's 1/3 of the price? Already have batteries for both lines. Instead of down voting how about you actually answer the question lol

I got this as part of the 3 tool combo kit (stick, spot, and panel light). I agree with the comments that it's amazingly bright and long throw, but also don't use it a lot. I use the panel light and stick light ALL the time. 3 light kit (no batteries) is $119 most of the time.

I have a mid range light - Sofirn Sp36 flood. Max 8k lumens. The ridgid isn't great for walks, for example, due to size/shape. The sp36 is about the size of the cardboard in a roll of TP. You can find a ton of info on r/Flashlights.

This spotlight is very bright for sure and a good light to keep in the car in case of emergency. But the Work Light gets the most use when walking the dog at night. It was $15 and $20 2 years ago. I have a 2ah battery on it and it hardly requires charging. Ridgid Work Light [homedepot.com]

The Ridgid Trifold light is hybrid (120V) but it's not tripod mountable, and I use the Ego Folding light on a tripod for night grilling which is perfect lighting up the backyard.

A couple years ago I got the 3 light combo that includes one of these. It's been so good to have I've bought a second combo pack of them.

This spotlight has been really nice to have. I'll point it at a white wall or ceiling and it lights a room like those old torch lights. A few years ago I was helping some youth rake a widow's yard after dark. I printed this thing at a white garden shed and it lit the whole yard.

It does burn through battery pretty fast on high. Don't expect it to last more than maybe an hour with a 4 or 6 AH battery.

Of the 3 lights, this one gets used least, but it's still a great tool.
