Description: The Husky 84-Watt Portable Tripod
Fluorescent Work Light provides 360-
degree illumination in a surprisingly
compact, easy-to-carry package — just 33
inches long when folded up. Unfolded, it
stands 5 feet 4 inches tall, and can light up
large workspaces — up to 17 by 24 feet —
by producing the equivalent of 300 watts of
incandescent light in all directions with no
heat buildup. It also draws less than 1 amp
of power — a nice feature when running it
off of a generator powering other tools. The
two 42-watt compact fluorescent light bulbs
are set in a protected, telescoping module
that automatically powers-on when the module
is raised (and off when lowered), eliminating
the struggle to find power buttons in a
dark work area. The product comes with a
12-foot, 18-gauge, 3-wire outdoor-rated
power cord that stores in a compartment in
the base of the unit. Available only at Home
Depot, WWW.HomeDepot.Com.

Pros: Portable, very bright, uses CF bulbs, easy to store, and well constructed.
Cons: It comes with warm white bulbs which are easy on the eyes, but in preference, cool white bulbs are better suited to work by.

This is a very unique product. It doesn't present a fire hazard like halogen bulbs which throw off a lot of heat, and use an enormous amount of electricity. It's capable standing on its own, and is stable even if it gets bumped into. It takes up a little space in comparison to a small work light, but is usable in most job sites. It comes with warm white bulbs which are easy on the eyes, but in preference, cool white bulbs are better suited to work by. I purchased cool white daylight bulbs to use whenever the original bulbs burn out. It's not used everyday, so I'm sure that the original bulbs will last a long time.
