KLEIN TOOLS 56040 Magnetic LED Flashlight, 350 Lumen Rechargeable Flashlight, Twist Focus, Laser Pointer, Hands-Free, USB Charging Cable, for Work and Outdoor

BEST EDC FLASHLIGHT EVER. Spent years looking for something like this. String magnetic base, turbo mode up to 1000 lumens, side light, two way pocket clip, can be used for you hat and or shirt pocket. Did I mention a green laser pointer? USB C recharge. To nitpick there’s no lock, you have to cycle to get between the front and side light but overall an incredible light.

Well made. Both warm and brilliant light, as well as the spot light. Strong magnet. Versatile. Long battery life.

I’m a tool gadget guy, and I love this light. Fits amazing into side pocket, super handy and useful. Light is just bright enough for any work tasks, floodlight works amazing, especially with the magnet. Love, the fact that you can have the light and the laser on at the same time love the purchase, no regrets would buy again in a heartbeat.

I carry this daily and use it daily in my line of work, its super handy to magnetize to whatever above ceiling dealing with a rats nest of wires and someone's mess. It gives off plenty of light, the laser is okay, not super bright but works well enough to point things out that are far away, maybe 50 to 100' away, or on the ceiling somewhere. It would be really great, if this was a laser distance measure laser in this form factor, but that's probably asking for too much.

It's an alright little flashlight. I like the laser pointer but one downside is that if it gets too hot it just shuts off completely. Which in theory makes sense but sometimes I need a light to rely on. I dropped it in oil and it still works, the laser pointer not so much. The magnet isn't that strong and the charger cover is a little unreliable but overall for the price and what I've put it through it's not too bad. Feels nice in your pocket too.

I have both the 57040 (bigger orange) and 57074 (smaller black) models and have used both extensively. Here is what I think: The 57040 is a good, sturdy flashlight that will surprise you with how bright it is. It has two brightness settings, but I usually just use the brighter setting. You can also concentrate the beam which I've found useful in a few situations as it makes it appear just a hair brighter right where you need it. The magnet is cool but I usually take it off. I also removed the clip entirely. Red laser poiner is a red laser pointer. Even though the flashlight is impressively bright for how small it is: it's still just too big to realistically carry around with you every day. The 57074 however is an upgrade in the size department. It is much smaller, about the size of a pack of Double Bubble I've had vapes that were bigger. Very pocketable. It also has this awesome 2 way clip you can attach to the bill of a hat and use it as a makeshift headlamp. You can not concentrate the beam on this model which I initially found disappointing, it makes up for this however with a super-ultra-mega bright setting that can be used in 60 second bursts by holding the flashlight button. This kind of achieves a similar thing with less work. The magnet also isn't removable as far as I can tell on this model. It gets hot if you use the main lights on it for too long. It has a little floodlight that doesn't get as hot though. I also noticed that the green laser pointer on this model has a hands-free mode not mentioned in the manual that is activated by double clicking the laser button. Both flashlights have their strengths and weaknesses. I've owned my 56040 a lot longer and just got the 56074 recently. Both products are an easy 5 stars. I just noticed all these reviews are for the bigger orange flashlight and figured some might appreciate a review for the smaller black flashlight

This is an excellent light devoid of stupid “tactical” crap. I use it for mechanical work and greatly appreciate the strong magnetic base. It charges easily and stays charged for a long time. It’s my new go to light. It’s also very comfortable in my pocket. All this for a reasonable price.

Multiple lighting options, good brightness and area. Convenient usbc charging port and magnet in the end to mount on metal parts or objects. Nifty last pointer. This tool is so awesome that when I lost one I immediately ordered another one.
