At a glance
This compact rechargeable worklight is a handy portable light for tradespeople, drivers, and anyone needing quick illumination in small spaces. Its magnetic base, hooks, and carabiner make hands-free setup easy, while up to 240 lumens suits close-up tasks well. It is especially practical for gloveboxes and toolboxes, but it is not as powerful as larger specialist worklights for wide-area lighting.

Key benefits
- Compact Size: Stores easily in a glovebox, toolbox, or centre console for quick access when light is needed.
- Magnetic Base: Attaches to flat steel surfaces for hands-free lighting while you work.
- Rechargeable Battery: Built-in 1200 mAh battery avoids disposable batteries and can be recharged with the included USB cable.
- 240-Lumen Output: Provides useful brightness for inspections, repairs, and close-range work.
- Dual Light Modes: Cool white and red LEDs give you a choice between general task lighting and lower-glare visibility.
- Flexible Mounting Options: Hooks and a carabiner expand placement choices when a magnetic surface is not available.
- Tough Case: Durable housing is better suited to everyday transport and use around tools and vehicles.
- Portable Work Light Design: Easy to carry and reposition for jobs inside drawers, under the bonnet, or on the move.
Q: Will the magnetic base stick to any car panel or toolbox?
A: No. The magnetic base is designed for flat steel surfaces, so it will not reliably hold on aluminium, plastic, fabric, or curved trim. The hooks and carabiner are the better option when there is no suitable metal surface.
Q: Is 240 lumens enough for under-bonnet repairs and roadside checks?
A: Yes. Tool Guardian Compact Magnetic Rechargeable Worklight suits close-range jobs such as under-bonnet checks, drawers, and toolbox lighting. Its 240-lumen output is task-focused, not intended to light a whole garage or a wide outdoor area.
Q: What is the red LED mode useful for on this worklight?
A: The red LED mode is useful when you want a clear marker light or a lower-key light source instead of the cool white beam. It is better for visibility and signalling tasks than detailed repair work, where the white LED is the practical choice.
Q: Can this worklight hang if there is no metal nearby?
A: Yes. This worklight has hooks and a carabiner, so it can be hung from suitable points when a magnetic mount is not practical. That gives it more placement options inside a vehicle, in a cupboard, or around a work area.
Q: Does it come ready to recharge from a standard USB source?
A: Yes. Tool Guardian Compact Magnetic Rechargeable Worklight includes a USB charging cable for recharging the built-in 1200mAh battery. It is designed for USB power sources, so the main extra need is a suitable USB charging port or adaptor.
