This is such a clever piece of engineering. It has variable light intensity, can fold in different configurations depending on the sort of illumination you need and has a very solid feel. It is a hybrid unit which can run on mains power or the interchangeable Ryobi battery. I use the same battery for my Ryobi blower (great for clearing leaves), my Ryobi tree trimmer and my Ryobi drill :)

While the LED will undoubtedly use less power and therefore make the battery last longer, it is really of no significant benefit. The LED has a more focused centre spot which is brighter. but, that does not necessarily improve the overall illumination. A compromise yes, better no. Value for money? Unknown, I have never had a Krypton Blub blow out but LED's never seem to last as long as advertised AND they loose brightness as they age. Would I buy again. Definately not. Not worth the considerably extra cost.

Pros the lamp is easy to fit. Cons The lamp is not as bright as I would have hoped. Its design does not make use of the reflector in the housing. A better designed lamp could have had more LEDs around the side and centered these at the focus of the reflector, thus increasing the light ouput.

Puts out a little less output spread than the globe but works OK for emergencies. Led needs to be more exposed so that it spreads light like the bulbs. Thinks bulbs better value but not sure of current rating LED may last longer the resistance type globes.

I find this torch to be compact, and of good quality. Works well for a single cree led, good for a general purpose torch, worth adding to your Ryobi kit.
