The 12v light is very nice to have. It's a bright flashlight in a small, compact design. The magnet and pocket clip are awesome. For that picture, That's really the first time I've used the "kickstand". It's a very durable light and has been dropped more than I would like, multiple times above 5 ' drops, but still fully functional. Conclusion: I really like my 12v light. But for an area work light, the new 3 LED 20v is super. It shines wide and bright.
