DEWALT DCL079B 20V MAX Cordless LED Telescoping Tripod Work Light

The DEWALT DCL079B 20V MAX cordless LED tripod work light delivers up to 3,000 lumens of natural white area illumination to replace high-heat halogen jobsite lamps across residential and commercial build sites. Engineered with an integrated 7-foot telescoping pole and a multidirectional pivoting light head, this 20.95-lb portable floodlight projects clear, shadow-free overhead lighting directly onto work planes and elevated ceiling structures. Featuring three variable brightness settings yielding over 11 hours of runtime, an IP55 weather-resistant sealed housing, and a quick-collapsing tripod base with a balanced carry handle, it optimizes visibility for drywall finishing, mechanical rough-ins, and late-night emergency utility repairs.

**Battery and charger sold separately.

Best Used For:

  • Drywall Taping and Surface Finishing: Directing raking overhead light across wall panels and ceiling joints to expose taping imperfections and surface ridges before painting.
  • Commercial Framing and MEP Rough-Ins: Illuminating unpowered structural bays and dark basement utility rooms with wide-coverage 3,000-lumen flood lighting.
  • Exterior Nighttime Utility and Site Work: Deploying freestanding, shadow-reducing illumination in damp outdoor conditions with IP55 water and dust protection.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • 3,000-Lumen Natural White LED: Produces high-fidelity, color-accurate illumination that stays cool to the touch and eliminates incandescent burn hazards.
  • Three Variable Brightness Outputs: Allows operators to toggle between low (1,000 lm), medium (2,000 lm), and high (3,000 lm) modes to balance output with battery conservation.
  • 7-Foot Telescoping Extension Pole: Elevates the light source up to 84 inches to cast light downward over workers, significantly minimizing blinding line-of-sight glare and harsh shadows.
  • IP55 Dust and Ingress Protection: Rugged weatherized housing shields sensitive electronic drivers and battery terminals against windblown dust, rain, and jobsite splashes.
  • Multidirectional Pivoting Lamp Head: Rotates and swivels smoothly to aim targeted beams directly at workpieces or bounce ambient light off white ceilings.
  • Fast-Deploying Collapsible Tripod: Folds down to a compact 41.35-inch transit footprint in seconds, secured by a base latch and balanced ergonomic transport handle.
