My flashlight came as part of a Makita drilll/light kit I purchased almost 15 years ago. At the time, I wanted the drill without the flashlight because flashlights are notorious for being containers for dead batteries, but the kit with it was only $10 more, so I bought the kit. Boy am I glad I did! This has been a great unit! Battery low? No problem. The kit came with two batteries; swap it out and quick charge the low one. I recommend you buy a spare battery if you have only one. The only problem I had was the bulb burned out a couple of years ago after about 10 years of use! I had forgotten Makita puts a spare bulb in the head, so I bought a replacement for only a couple of bucks. The batteries are still working great. I have had many flashlights over my 50 years of working with tools. They all ended up as the proverbial container for dead batteries, except this one. It is hands down the very best flashlight I ever owned.
