Have you ever set up three different lights and still somehow ended up working in your own shadow? Festool apparently got tired of that, too.
Festool recently launched the SYSLITE DUO-H Hybrid LED Work Light, delivering 10,000 lumens across a wide 180-degree area. Instead of blasting one harsh beam across the room, it provides more uniform lighting for larger workspaces.
Battery or Corded Power
You can run the SYSLITE DUO-H on a Festool 18V battery or just plug it in with the included 5.5-meter cable. Go cordless when you’re out in the wild, or plug in for all-day lighting when you’ve actually got an outlet nearby.
You can dial the brightness up or down as much as you want, dim it for close-up work or crank it to light up the whole place. If your battery starts to tap out, the light automatically dims to keep running longer.
Control It From Your Phone
The Festool app lets you turn the light on or off, adjust its brightness and monitor the battery remotely. Multiple compatible lights can also be grouped and controlled together.
It sounds like a small convenience until the light is across the room and you are 5 feet up the ladder.
