Editorial Reviews and Product Descriptions

Product Description

Includes 19.2 Volt Cordless Flashlight - 881, Operating Manual, Unit Only - Battery Not Included.
Amazon.com Review

The best reason to include this Porter-Cable 19.2-volt flashlight in your toolbox is simply the convenience of being able to run it off your other Porter-Cable 19.2-volt batteries. It's easy to switch in the battery just when you need it, and without the battery, the unit is very lightweight and takes up little space. But it does provide plenty of illumination when and where you need it most, and it's heavy enough to sit upright on its battery so you can aim it and use it hands free. It has a 110-degree swiveling head and heavy-duty xenon bulb and comes with an extra bulb. Please note that a battery is not included with this model. --Jonathon Tudor

Portable light is handy - Reviewed on 2008-04-22

This light is very bright and seems to last for a while on the rechargeable battery. Only complaint is that the light source is not diffuse-bright, which means anything outside of its circle of light is not illuminated well.

My PC Drill burned out after 6 years of hard use - the batteries are now being put to good use with this flashlight - the light beam is nice and bright
Good choice if you have some 19.2 volt batteries laying around - Reviewed on 2008-01-01

Bad news first; no spare bulb (another review stated there was a spare bulb included), doesn't point downward enough (only about 45 degrees).

Good news; Porter Cable quality, great if you have extra 19.2 volt batteries from other Porter Cable tools. Will be very handy during power failure, have not run a battery down yet. Battery gives it a very stable base, and head locks from straight up to down about 45 degrees. If you need light lower, it can be laid on its side...and doesn't roll away!

Would have bought extra bulbs if I knew it didn't come with an extra, there is a compartment in the head to store a extra bulb. Would have given it 5 stars except for spare bulb issue.

This is a well balanced light with the weight in the base and an adjustable head that works as a third hand. Very good battery life (19.2v) with high end battery whether on the shelf or in use. After mis-placing it during a renovation project... I immediately got a replacement.

I received this as part of a set of reconditioned Porter Cable 19.2 volt cordless tools (drill/driver, reciprocating saw and circular saw).

The flashlight was part of the package and I initially viewed its inclusion in the set as a marketing gimmick--you know, some marketing guy's way of making you feel like you bought four tools when you had only bought three. As it has turned out, however, I have gotten great use out of the light. It's bright, the beam is powerful, the base is stable (you don't have to hold it in your hands, you can set it down) and the beam direction is fairly adjustable.

We use it all the time. It has been invaluable inside cabinets, when I crawl underneath the house, and when our electricity has not been working.

I have dropped it a couple of times from about 6 feet onto concrete and while the flashlight body and the battery have survived in good working (but cosmetically bruised) condition, the bulbs have broken.

The bulbs are hard to find in stores so buy some extras.
