Query: Worth the cost

This light is very durable. It seems to have been designed around protection for the bulb. On construction sites it is common for things to get banged up. This light won't fall through the floor joists in an open attic and throws light in all directions. It really doesn't get hot to the touch so there is no need to let it cool off before putting it away. The receptacle on the base is a nice added feature. I don't know what a replacement bulb costs and I don't know how long it is expected to last but mine has gotten smacked a few times and works fine. The only thing I don't think will hold up is the handle. It is plastic and seems a little flimsy. Mine has not cracked or broken but seems like the weakest part of the light. I would buy another one if I needed it.
