§ FAQ

How many lumens does the DCL044 produce?

The DCL044 produces 165 lumens. It is designed as a compact personal work light for close-range tasks and tight spaces rather than broad area flood lighting. For higher output, consider the DCL043 (1500 lumens) or DCL074 (5000 lumens).

Does the DCL044 have a magnetic base?

Yes. The DCL044 has a built-in magnet that attaches to metal surfaces for hands-free placement. Combined with the 360-degree rotating head, kick-stand, belt clip, and hanging hook, it offers five distinct mounting options.

How light is the DCL044 without a battery?

The DCL044 weighs just 0.85 lbs without battery — roughly the same weight as the battery itself. This makes it one of DEWALT's lightest work lights and easy to clip to a belt for all-day carry.

Is the DCL044 good for crawl space and attic work?

Yes. The DCL044 is a popular choice for crawl spaces and attics because of its small footprint, magnetic base, and belt-clip. Reviewers report wearing it clipped to a belt or stuck to a metal joist while keeping both hands free.

Can the head of the DCL044 rotate all the way around?

The DCL044 features a 360-degree rotating head that pivots to direct the beam in any direction. This makes it easy to aim light at the exact work surface regardless of how the body of the tool is positioned or mounted.

How long will the DCL044 run on a 2Ah battery?

At 165 lumens of LED output the DCL044 draws minimal current. A standard 2Ah 20V MAX battery provides several hours of continuous runtime — reviewers report running it all day on a single 2Ah pack for non-continuous use.
