Re: [MBZ] HF work lights

[Greg Fiorentino via Mercedes]

I ordered some, along with some of the magnetic parts holders someone 
recommended as a base for the lights. The parts holders came right away, no 
notice of the lights themselves. I called and got a nice American lady. She 
said they had them in stock, but something messed up my order. She said she 
corrected it. Another week or so and I received 4 gigantic boxes, with one 
light each. So, for a grand total of $5.99 in shipping fees, they sent 5 
separate FedEx packages, each of which was large enough to contain the entire 
order. I can't imagine they made much profit on this transaction.

That said, I'm very happy with the lights. With the magnetic parts dishes they 
will attach vertically or overhead, plus hold the lamp onto a flat non-metallic 
surface.

Re: [MBZ] HF work lights

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

I’m talking specifically about the 18150 lithium ion batteries used in the HF 
LED light.

They’re poorly made Chinese or Taiwanese imports and my experience has been 
poor with them. I went to eBay and bought name brand versions for just a little 
bit more and they’ve done far better than anything I used from Amazon. You’ll 
note there is a lot of junk on Amazon, some of which have ratings that are 
physically impossible for a battery of that capacity to have…

No quality 18650s? That seems absurd, the Amazon Basics rechargable AA and AAA 
are the best deal going.

You can’t find quality 18150 batteries on the Island of Large Wimmen. However, 
there are good quality name brand ones on eBay.

Some of the reviews complain about the charging port. I have a stand alone 
18650 battery charger I got off of Amazon, and I got spare batteries from 
Walmart. Works great.

Yea, they are pretty darn good.  Very compact and can get it into areas 
where a normal light wont go.
