DeWalt announced the launch of a 12V MAX Lithium Ion LED Work Light (DCL510) as part of its new 12 Volt MAX cordless platform. With a 130-Lumen LED light and a head that rotates 360-degrees and pivots, the DCL510 provides bright illumination to maximize visibility and accuracy on the jobsite.

Contractors light their work spaces on jobsites in a variety of way and DeWalt's solution dramatically improves the typical methods of holding a flashlight. Instead of placing it in your mouth, duct taping it to a hard hat or having a fellow contractor hold the light in place, you can use the heavy-duty magnet, set it down, or use the belt belt clip and pivot and rotate the head 360-degrees.

In addition to a belt clip and magnet, the LED work light features a kickstand for extra versatility. The belt clip, kickstand and magnet allow the light to stand on multiple surfaces, cling to electrical boxes or steal studs and clip to belts, pouches or pockets. The light's head rotates and pivots to provide bright illumination in any orientation.

The new LED work light will be available in the fourth quarter at home centers and industrial distributors. The work light is expected to retail for approximately $39 (for the tool only, no battery or charger).

The product will come with a three-year limited warranty, one year free service contract and 90-day money back guarantee. For more information about the warranty or available accessories, visit http://www.dewalt.com.
