Laughable Incandescent / Very Useful Fluorescent March 31, 2010
Turkey Stuffer (South Plainfield, NJ)
Just got it and really like it. The Fluorescent illuminates just like I had hoped it would. Should be excellent for my attic, undersink and crawlspace uses where portable non-spot lighting is needed. The incandescent is pretty much useless but I don't care. I'd like to see a LED version but I doubt it would produce such nice even lighting. Complements my LXT battery investment.

The best all around flashlight ever. January 10, 2010
wyatt f (nevada city, ca)
This flashlight is a tool I use every day. If you are interested in area lighting instead of spot lighting-such as underneath a sink or in a crawl space, you cannot have a better light source. If you're looking for something in a closet or crowded garden shed, this is the ticket. Need light during an emergency power outage? This flashlight will give you the illumination you need. How about putting snow chains on your tires in the dark? Just set this light in the snow by the car and go to work. On a camping trip? I dare say this wonderful light will be constantly by your side. Yes, the incandescent light isn't much to write home about, but it is just an extra feature-one which you might have use for on occasion.

Nice on fluorescent side, flashlight part is worthless September 2, 2009
Guard Dad (Southern NH)
I use this light quite often, the fluorescent light is bright and really lights up the place. I have 2 complaints:

* The incandescent flashlight bulbs burn out very quickly. I've replaced them several times, and I have been careful to get the correct bulbs in the Makita packaging. They just must get too hot in the lens and burn out. I've given up on that side, use a regular Maglite if I need a beam.

* They are very fussy about the battery charge. Once the battery even starts to go below full charge, the light shuts off. Not gets dim, it just shuts off with no warning. Pretty annoying when you're under a sink or in otherwise tight quarters and suddenly in the dark.

I'm still glad I bought it, but you should be aware of these issues.

Makita BML184 Decent Flashlight August 30, 2009
Brian W. Manke (Hamden, CT)
I have just about every tool in the Makita LXT line. The flashlight is good but not up to the same standards as the rest of the excellent LXT line up. The fluorescent part works great - bright and runs for a long time on a battery charge. I am very happy with the performance of the fluorescent portion. The flashlight is virtually useless. It's about as bright as an old 6 volt lantern. You should consider this part of it non-existent. I also had problems with my first one - it would on it's own start randomly looping through the lights - fluorescent on, fluorescent off, flashlight on, flashlight off. I had to pay to send it back to Makita but they fixed it under warranty. I have had no issues with it since.
