Porter Cable 881 19.2-Volt Tilting Head Flashlight, No Battery

by Porter-Cable

Product Description

Amazon.com Review

The best reason to include this Porter-Cable 19.2-volt flashlight in your toolbox is simply the convenience of being able to run it off your other Porter-Cable 19.2-volt batteries. It's easy to switch in the battery just when you need it, and without the battery, the unit is very lightweight and takes up little space. But it does provide plenty of illumination when and where you need it most, and it's heavy enough to sit upright on its battery so you can aim it and use it hands free. It has a 110-degree swiveling head and heavy-duty xenon bulb and comes with an extra bulb. Please note that a battery is not included with this model. --Jonathon Tudor

5.0 out of 5 stars Not just any old flashlight..., February 21, 2001

What was just a spur of the moment purchase to accompany my new 19.2 Porter-Cable Cordless drill has turned out to be one of the best purchases that I have made. I probably own at least 15 flashlights, but when I need to do some work in a dimly lit place, I reach for this one. It is not just any old flashlight --I love its design and its power. The Porter-Cable flashlight features a tilting head that clicks into place. I used it extensively in a darkened house to rewire outlets and switches. I placed the light on the floor, angled the head and worked away. What would have been a nightmare with any old flashlight was a quick and easy chore with this light. The power is amazing. Do not shine it in your eyes! I got quite a few hours usage off a single battery. When it runs out of juice, the speed charging system will have you up and recharged in under an hour. I can not wait to take it camping this summer to try it out.

If you buy the drill, buy the flashlight too. You will be glad that you did.

First of all, I am not a big Porter Cable fan. I own many DeWalt tools. The only PC tool I own before the 19.2v hammer drill is the PC 690 router. The hammer drill experience was surprisely pleasant, very nice and powerful tool. Then I notice that the case for the drill has space for this flashlight, so I picked it up. It's nicely built too. Same color as the drill and use the spare battery comes with the drill and fits in the case with the battery on. The flashlight illuminates the work nicely and bright and stays where you put it, not like my MagLite that I always have to struggle with placing it somewhere to keep it from rolling away while working on something. The head angle adjustment clicks in positions nice and tight. It's definitely a good tool worth having.

This light is an excellent light source. I bought it from Amazon.com late last year and have used it it in two power outages. Placed in the hallway it provides light to every room. When used in assembly of cabnits it aids in adding interior hardware. It is great for searching for wood surface defects in finish operations. It is a good investment.
