Rolson 61770 72 LED Inspection Lamp

I bought two of these for hanging in our 6 berth tent, to be used for the purpose they were designed and not for emergency car inspection lights or use in the loft as others have said. The 72 LED's give off excellent brightness and illuminate the internal living space of our 2 bedroom tent. The fold-away hooks are handy and will either hang from internal poles or sewn in tabs. The switch has a positive one click on/off action. The magnets worked well and held in place when tested on my fridge, radiators and bare metal. These units take 4 x AA batteries and coupled with LED's they have a reasonable life span. This is an excellent, value for money, stationary camping light and does the job it was designed for well.

Good little light, does what it’s supposed to, nice and compact, good price, has magnets and a hook for hanging it up or on things, purchased mine for inside of fishing seat box , Velcro taped it under the lid so can remove and replace when need to change the batteries ,,

The black-plastic casing on the camping light certainly feels a good quality, and is fairly durable - I have dropped it a number of times; both onto grass and a hard floor, but the only dammage is a few small (almost invisible) scratches on the lense which have not had any effect on the brightnes / focus etc. of the light. The light emitted from the 72 LEDs is impressive; especially in an indoor space such as a tent or vehicle - easily enough to see by for reading a book / map etc., and adequate for walking across an unlit field or campsite at night - and LEDs are very energy efficient; so you'll go a long time before needing to change the cells (mine has been subjected to six months' use during a British Winter: so the cells clearly last). The three magnets on the back of the unit easily hold the unit's weight (including upside-down); as does the hook. However, the hook is a little fiddly, and pivots; so the unit sometimes moves while hanging from something overhead (this is what stops the light from getting a 5* rating from me). And, finally, the on/off button is fairly large (without taking too much space on the unit) - making it easy to operate in the dark or when wearing gloves. Overall, a great camping light well worth buying for any camping trip, motoring holiday etc. or if you work at night or on vehicles. ~ A M Lloyd

This is the second torch of this type that I have bought. The first was from a different listing on Amazon a good while ago, and I don't think it was "Rolson" branded, but it was identical, and it worked very well. Unfortunately, it was the latest of a number of household gadgets (remotes, doorbells, computer mice etc.) to fall victim in recent months to the curse of the Duracell battery - leakage. Duracell used to be the Rolls Royce of batteries, but their quality now is absolutely awful. After a few months, they leak. I have spent hours cleaning up various gadgets after discovering that there had been a leak in them. Alas it was too late for this torch, the mess and corrosion inside was too bad. I had only used it last about 3 weeks ago, it was fine then, but this time I switched it on and nothing happened. Opened it up - yuk. I have been round the house swapping all Duracells for other makes now, I just don't trust them at all any more. I even threw out a load of new ones I had sat in my man-drawer. Anyway, I wanted to replace it straight away, and here we are. This one arrived very quickly, in proper sealed plastic packaging and including some non-Duracell batteries. It works just as well as the first one. It is a bit cumbersome as a general torch, but makes a very good work light, especially for going in the loft or working in or under the car. It's a great powerful light - but DON'T PUT DURACELLS IN IT!

Couldn't fault this light in the 5 years I owned it. It's past tense because it's in my friends possession now and still going strong. We have had to change the batteries a few times mind. Gives off a strong beam of light which will light up a smaller space really well. Great for working on the car, going into the loft, or using as a camping light. I used it for all three. I've only managed to better it recently by paying almost five times as much for something similar but waterproof, which this unit certainly isn't. The ,agent on my new unit is much stronger too, though not strong enough to prevent it ending up 1.5 metres deep in a commercial water tank. Slightly embarrassing but proof of the waterproof claim. Anyway, I digress. The Rolson light is certainly more than worth the money being asked here and I can't recommend it strongly enough.

I was so impressed by the amount of light I got out of the 3 battery version (48 LED), I went and got the 4 battery variant (72 LED)for the extra flood lighting. I will say that the quotes about battery installation being tricky maybe true, but I can swap a set of cells in under a minute blindfolded, so maybe to a lesser technically minded person it can be tough. I recommend rechargeable batteries if you are using it as a regular light, but for changing a tyre or going somewhere unlit, yes it is a good, sturdy splash-proof light and when working under the bonnet at night, it's a bally good thing to have in the glovebox.... Pro's - Bright, compact, sturdy, hangs almost anywhere and sticks to metal if you want to mount it into position, works as well on rechargeable cells if used for short periods <15 minutes Con's - Battery installation can be tricky if your fingers are frozen and battery discharge rate is 1.7 Amps, which causes rechargeable batteries to get hot with extended use Would I buy it again....Not for extended use

Bought three of these for some additional evening lighting when we had our wedding party in the garden. Bought very last minute and wasn't really expecting much, but have been very impressed. Simple, well made and super bright, they performed perfectly in the garden and have now proved equally useful on several camping trips and as handy emergency lights when we had a power cut. Not exactly sure how these can be sold for just over £6 including the batteries, but they really are amazingly useful. They would also be perfect as a useful work light for anyone who regularly works on cars because they will stick to any metal surface and don't have the problem of a lead to get in the way. Plus they don't get dangerously hot like incandescent bulbs and of course they don't break if you drop or knock them. Highly recommended.

I bought a couple of these for my garage, which is quite large but has no mains electricity. I use a portable generator for lighting & power when working in there, but that has to be run outside & once it's turned off in order to bring it in it's pitch black! These Rolson LED lights are great because they can be hung anywhere and cast a reasonable spread of light - bright enough to see well by to secure the generator & lock up etc. I was impressed enough to buy another four, to place on walls & overhead as they give adequate light to do small jobs at night without the hassle of starting up the generator. Haven't had them long enough to judge battery life yet. They appear well made & robust. The magnets seem pretty strong & the hook swivels freely or folds away if not required. They are best if positioned out of the eye line, as they are too bright to look at directly. I'm very pleased with them

Se trata de una linterna o minipantalla led que emite una luz blanca que, sin llegar a ser muy potente, es más que suficiente para iluminar en el interior de un coche, tienda de camping, armario o trastero. Incluso es perfectamente válida para iluminar una habitación pequeña o para movernos de noche por casa si ya hay gente durmiendo y no queremos encender luces, pero no esperes que sustituya la luz que da una bombilla. Exteriormente sus dimensiones son: - Largo: 21,9 cms (219mm) - Ancho: 5,9 cms (59mm) - Espesor: 3,2 cms (32mm) Las dimensiones de la pantalla LED son: - Largo: 17,6 cms (176mm) - Ancho: 3,4 cms (34mm) En la parte trasera tiene tres imanes circulares de 14mm de diámetro con fuerza de sobra para sujetar la pantalla con seguridad en cualquier posición. También dispone de un gancho de plástico abatible que si no usamos podemos dejar oculto en la parte trasera embutido en la carcasa de manera que no molesta para su sujeción con los imanes. Funciona con 4 pilas AA que se suministran junto a la pantalla. El encendido y apagado es mediante un interruptor, una pulsación para encender y otra para apagar. Debido a que las pilas van alojadas en el extremo superior, el peso no está repartido equitativamente, pero eso no es problema para su uso ni con el gancho ni con los imanes. El acabado del producto es bastante decente, si bien su construcción en plástico no tiene la misma robustez que las linternas metálicas. Para realizar pequeños trabajos de bricolaje en casa en lugares como el bajo de un fregadero o el altillo de un armario es una muy buena opción. También es muy útil para iluminar el motor del coche, ya que gracias a los imanes se puede colocar en casi cualquier sitio para iluminar la zona que queramos. Yo estoy satisfecho con la compra, si necesitara otra la volvería a comprar.

lampe pratique aimanté sur le derrière ce qui est super et qui supporte le poids de la lampe un crochet sur le dessus pour la suspendre qui est rétractable éclairage très puissant utilisation très simple avec le bouton sur le devant je m'attendais a un produit un peu plus petit mais bonne surprise par la taille je suis vraiment contente de mon achat je recommande vivement ce produit

Hace una luz brutal , lleva imanes detrás y aguantan el peso de la linterna. Genial para llevarlo en el coche o de camping o para algun trastero que no tenga instalación eléctrica. Lo recomiendo

Ofrece una luz blanca ideal. El imán es perfecto para unirlo al chasis de la Oxford 200D. El problema es que una de las luces traía las baterías sulfatadas.

Does what is says. Lots of light and magnetic attachment points are useful. I will update when I get an idea of power usage.
