Fng, yes, for me, they make excellent close quarter inspection lights with the led lamp. Most areas that I work in are very confined and usually hot. Being small,waterproof,insulated and having a long run-time make the 2l a excellent choice for my needs. They work very well at distances under 40 feet. I keep one Uke 2l in a Sog Powerlock nylon pouch on my belt. A co-worker gave me the pouch as he dislikes nylon.It's perfect for the 2l and it can be carried horizontally or vertically.I keep a Arc 4 with me at all times too. Great back-up..
