It takes all the features that made the original M18 rocket tower light and charger model great and according to Milwaukee they doubled the brightness now at up to 6000 lumens! They also added a USB port to charge mobile devices on the go.
Of course it still features a built in 3 leg base that stores compact and deploys in just seconds. The light head is a three part head with light heads that can be positioned independently or all aimed at the same direction, your choice. The light head sits atop a telescoping tower that can be extended from 4-7 feet. Three light output settings allow for maximum brightness or low brightness to save battery juice when full power is not needed and a middle setting in between. Runtime is said to be up to 3.5/5/10 hours depending on brightness setting – although no reference was made as to which battery this runtime was for but my guess would have to be with the included 8.0 ah battery pack. This light can also be plugged into AC power for unlimited runtime. Milwaukee also backs up the light with a limited lifetime warranty.
This light will be set to launch October 2020 for $399 as a Bare Tool or $599 as a Kit.
