Having spent my life sailing and working on boats, I know how important it is to have reliable gear—especially lighting. So, when my dad raved about the Omni 2K Work Light from NEBO, I had to try it for myself.This past weekend, I dove into some projects on my newly acquired 1959 Gulfstream 30. Its Beta 20 marine diesel engine has been idle for 15 years, so we pulled the starter and alternator for cleaning. Working in tight spaces with low light is always tough, and it seemed like a good test for the Omni 2K. The handles of the NEBO light rotate to provide a stable stand on uneven surfaces. The two lamps can swing through 360° and, because they act independently from one another, can be set up to shine in different directions.

OK – added this to my “buy list” – thanks for your review!
Thank you for reading! I will be hard pressed to use any other mobile work lights after having used this one.
An excellent review of a really useful work light, so much better and safer than trailing a mains powered light around.
