Anyone who rolls around under cars will have some sort of work light. I've used a halogen floor lamp for years. Plenty of light, but cumbersome being quite bulky and very, very hot. I have also found it very difficult to position for welding without it tripping my welding mask. I have finally replaced it with an LED floor lamp. This one is 24W and cost £23 from Screwfix. Very bright, fairly directional, not at all bulky and doesn't trip my welding mask when indulging in my very most favourite thing; upside down plug welding. A good buy. Chris.

Good one Chris, I'll probably get one as I only need to think about nudging my halogen lamp and it blows a bulb; and of course the heat - ouch, more than once.

Burnt my ear on mine once.... And - you never have a spare halogen when they do go pop. I just hope this is robust enough.

I once knocked one of those over in my conservatory (as you do) when I was testing it. Melted a nice section of the polyester rug I had lurking in there!
Hope the new one doesn't illuminate too many horrors on the vehicle on its way to you!

Thank goodness for that. Hope the early delivery didn't cause too many problems for you.
Those Halogen lamps were great as heat sources when spraying cellulose!
