Dewalt DCL079 XR LED TRIPOD LIGHT 

Really glad to see you back. Happy too that your absence has been due to "too much work" and not due to an illness or injury.

@@jayyambrovich3740 Thanks Jay 👍

Nice to see you back - keep safe.

Glad to see you back, was getting worried. 👍

@@no_short_circuit Thanks, you too 👍

Totally agree! Thanks for the comment 👍

Thanks Alan, it’s great to see comments from regular posters 🙏 Yeah, the option to plug the light in would be a useful feature! Thanks for the comment 👍

Yes, it's a really handy piece of kit! Thanks for the comment ;-)

Thanks Peter, it’s good to be back uploading again! Yeah, I think it was the girlfriend that stumbled across this light. It really has been incredibly useful! Thanks for the comment 👍

😂 Thanks for the comment 👍

Thanks David 👍

Thanks, Richard 👍

Thanks Larry, much appreciated 👍

Thanks Robin, I feel like I have been in WW3 with my own government for the last couple of years 👍

Thanks Stuart 👍

Thanks 👍

That sounds ideal 👍

Thanks 👍

Thanks for the comment 👍

Thanks, David 👍

Yeah, it has been a life saver! Without it, I would have had to use the generator and extension lead! Thanks for the comment 👍

I wish! Thanks for the comment 👍

Thanks John 👍

Thanks 👍 Yeah, if you don't already have Dewalt batteries, this would be an expensive purchase!

Thanks Harold 👍

Thanks Chris 👍

Thanks Andy 👍

I get the feeling that I'm shadow banned on RU-vid, as so many people say that they don't receive notifications. I walked out of my old job over 12 months ago, when the company turned totalitarian over a "voluntary" covid test. The new build is the girlfriends, late fathers house, which he was building when he died. I will not be moving in! Thanks for the comment 👍

Thanks 👍

Thanks Jack 👍

Yes, as far as I am aware. You should be able to use the flexvolt batteries on this. A 9AH flexvolt should give you just over 5 hours of runtime on the brightest setting 👍

Thanks Peter 👍 I don't think the LED's are replaceable! When I worked on site we had to run 110v leads all over the place to light up work areas, they were a real tripping hazard and generally a PITA. Once battery LED lamps were available, they made the job so much easier! Thanks for the comment

Thanks Neil, It does look like a military piece of equipment- pity it can't be used as such! I'll be uploading regularly again for the next few months 👍

Thanks Nick 👍

Thanks Ian, I'm from Darwen, Lancashire 👍 We don't pronounce the letter H here, so anything that starts with an H is difficult for me 😂

Thanks, there is plenty of land in the UK to build on, but the problem is the Government and local councils that put every obstacle in your way! But you are correct, with some new builds, you could put your arm out of the window and touch next door! You would not believe the amount of hassle that the girlfriend’s late father had when getting permission to build the house that I’ve been working on. On the site there used to be old farm buildings, I went over during lockdown to help him. He pointed to a lintel in a barn wall and said that he had to remove it so that the people that he had paid for the “Bat survey”, could inspect the wall to look for bats. I said “that’s a solid wall”, he said “I know, but they insist on me removing the lintel, so that they can check for bats”! It was complete madness! Thanks for the comment 👍

Thanks Mark, No I am not moving into the new build. It was partially built by the girlfriend’s father, when he sadly passed away! Yes, I walked out of my subcontracting job in Feb 2021 over covid testing, basically they wanted the engineering team to have a “voluntary” covid test every Monday morning at 9:30am. If you did not take the test, you could not use any of the canteens on site, but they did not provide an alternative room for having a break. One of the engineers ended up having his breaks in the workshop, on his dirty bench! I was having none of it, I emptied my locker and sold all of my tools to one of the apprentices for £1000 (Josh, he has been in a couple of videos- brilliant lad). Thanks for the comment 👍

@@ultimatehandyman Wow! Sounds like it's been a bit of a wild ride. Hope it all works out for you and all the best for the future.

@@markrowland5393 Thanks Mark, all the best to you too 👍

👍

Thanks 👍

That sounds great 👍

Yeah, it's expensive for what it is, but still a great piece of kit. Thanks for the comment, Graham 👍

Thanks, I ended up pulling a muscle in my lower back, when bending down for a small piece of timber. I was out of action for about three weeks! For a couple of days, I could not even reach to put my socks on! I’m better now though, and might even make it back to the gym! It’s amazing how fast the weight piles on when you don’t exercise enough! Thanks for the comment 👍

I've been really busy working on a newbuild, which is an hours drive in each direction, plus busy doing other things. I have hundreds of hours of footage to edit into videos now 👍 I'll be trying to get my regular Sunday video uploaded, like I used to! Thanks for the comment 👍

Cheers Josh 👍
