RV GADGETS
TESTING THE LIGHT
To put the inspection light through its paces , we used it in a variety of situations in , and around , the vehicle . We tested it under the bonnet , inside the vehicle after dark , and the magnet came in handy to attach the light to the side of the vehicle for checking tyre pressures one night .
We found the spotlight and its swivel capability worked well for areas under the vehicle that are generally difficult to see due to shadows .
Our general lighting needs were met around camp , with the inspection light providing more than enough light .
The specs state the run time is around 1.5 hours on high and 15 hours on low if left running continuously . That said , we found the battery lasted about a week before needing to be recharged , but we only used it for short periods at a time .
We liked how the battery was well sealed in the unit , and there was no problem using it in and around wet weather , given its IP54 rating .
The strong magnet and hook on the base of the worklight
We were grateful we could plug the light into one of our vehicle ’ s USB ports in the morning while driving , and the light was fully charged and ready to go again by morning smoko . It was a smooth process and a relief we no longer had to muck about with pen light batteries !
These days the market is overflowing with torches and work lights . But as a good all-round unit , we ’ re pleased the Jamec Pem Swivel LED Inspection Light has met our brief . And with all of the good things this work light has going for it , it ’ s become one of our regular touring accessories .
