Advanced Lighting Systems ALS AUD601R 600 Lumen Rechargeable LED Light with Built in Bluetooth Speaker and Magnetic Base

This ALS 600 Lumen light/Bluetooth speaker was given to me by a friend who works construction and had just purchased a few for his company. My first impression was how solid and balanced it felt. It feels heavy for its size like a good tool should. I found the buttons to be large and easy to press even while wearing gloves. I used it while working on my engine and found the magnet to be very strong and sturdy while hanging from the hood or underneath the vehicle. The magnet is in the end of the pull out base which allows it to pivot in order to position the light at whatever angle you need. The pivoting base allows for variable positioning while it sits on the ground as well. The LED is very bright and casts a nice even flood of light, which I really liked. I used it for about 3 hours on full brightness with no signs of dimming whatsoever. The Bluetooth speaker was easy to pair to my iPhone and the clarity was very good, though not quite as loud as I would like. I expect it will be fine since I will usually be in close proximity, but don't expect it to fill a room or be adequate in a very noisy environment.Cons:Where the handle screws into the sides of the light, the screws are recessed and have a small plastic plug to cover them. The plugs fall out very easily and I lost both of them the first time I used it. It's really not a big deal, the screws will need to be accessible for tightening the handle from time to time and I'm sure the plugs are there merely for aesthetics anyway, but I just wonder why ALS even bothered to put them in at all.The charger that came with it is a standard USB wall plug charger, but the cable end that plugs into the light is a round plug, not a standard mini or micro USB tip, which means I will have to use this special cable rather than one of the dozens of USB cables I have lying around.Overall, I am very impressed and pleased with this light and I think it will last a very long time if I don't lose it.

I did buy this from another vendor and wanted to make sure others knew how useful this light is.Definitely a unique product that serves two purposes at a great price. Sounds good and the light is very bright.The magnetic base is a nice feature so I can set it near the work bench, under the hood of my car, or in my tool box.

I ordered this light to use for general repair. The magnet is incredibly strong. The brightness and sound quality are great. The only problem I have is my children keep taking it. I'd buy another one for sure.

Awesome unit, the sound is fantastic and clear. The light is bright and last longer then stated. Will buy again.
