Work Lights for When the Clocks Fall Back

Daylight saving time ends the first Sunday in November, and the workday loses an hour of light. This collection groups the in-stock work lights, flood lights, flashlights, headlamps, and lanterns that keep jobs moving after dark, most on the batteries you already own.

Pick the Right Light

Flood and Area Lights

Flood, area, and tower lights such as the Milwaukee M18 ROVER and Festool SysLite KBS light a whole room or site. Compare lumen ratings in the titles.

Headlamps

Headlamps keep both hands free in attics, crawlspaces, and panels. USB rechargeable and hard hat models are in the cordless lighting lineup.

Flashlights and Task Lights

Pocket flashlights, penlights, and magnetic task lights ride in a pouch or the truck. Many charge by USB, no tool battery needed.

Fall Back Lighting FAQ

When does daylight saving time end?

Daylight saving time ends at 2:00 a.m. on the first Sunday in November, when clocks move back one hour and sunset comes an hour earlier.

Tool battery or USB rechargeable?

If you own M12, M18, 20V MAX, or LXT batteries, a tool-only light is the lowest-cost add. USB rechargeable lights suit anyone without a tool platform.

How many lumens do I need?

A few hundred lumens suits a headlamp or task light. 700 to 1,500 lumens lights a work area. Tower and area lights from 2,000 lumens up light a full room or site.
