Re: Wobble Light
Where do you store that awkard thing?
Husky makes a nice looking floding light stand that I've been eye-balling. Plus why is that darn light so expensive? |

Re: Wobble Light
Never heard of husky?
I want area lighting. The problem with the setup I have now the light is like a flash light it shine in one direction. So I have to swivel the light around every 5 min. The wobble weams to take care of that. |

Re: Wobble Light
Husky is available at the Depot.
http://www.toolsnob.com/archives/200...tripod_f_1.php I don't have one, but alot of guys do. I have a dozen 500watt flood lights, and 250watt flood lights....and yes they suck a pile of power, get super hot and cost a fortune in bulbs....Still 100 bucks for a big awkard wobbeling light.

Re: Wobble Light
100 bucks might sound like a lot, but you'll get what you pay for. A light you don't have to screw around with. Takes a beating. If you don't do something to break the light bulb which would take a lot, you'll probably get 2-3 years of service without a fuss. Try that with a 500 watt halogen, we're lucky to get a month out of one of them. Plus they have an outlet built into them so they end up being in very convienient spots to always plug a tool or something into. They work great, well worth the money to me.
We still keep a halogen around too. Wobble light will fill with non directional light, not good for drywalling, still need a directional halogen to check the progress of mud work. |

Re: Wobble Light
Excellent points Mike, but for me space is critical, if it collapsed into a 8" cube or something it would be perfect. It just looks like such an awkard bugger to store.

Re: Wobble LightQuote:
I have that light and I really like it. I also have a wobble light, I like it too. Best part about the wobble light is that I can kick it and beat it when I get pissed and it comes back for more, just like my old Mr. T punching bag!!!

Re: Wobble Light
I thought the price was a bargin compared to what I paid for my goliath lights. Super uber bright but easy to knock over then they break.

Re: Wobble Light
I've got three of the huskys and love them. The bulbs are easy to get unlike the wobble light

Re: Wobble Light
I have used the wobble light and the huskies and I like the husky better. Ended up buying a second one after I'd used the first for a day. Good light.

Re: Wobble Light
i've got the husky from HD as well.
Don't take a beating very well, but they are very bright and it's nice having light ALL around and they fold up small enough
