I have a flourescent one from princess auto. I also have an old school bulb type lamp, but I use one of those flourescent screw in bulbs. Works great.

I got my dad a corless LED trouble light for christmas. It's pretty bright, and for the areas he needs it, a cord can be a hassle.
I've got a florescent one, it's annoying. Not a good light to work with. I far prefer my 500Watt halogen worklight.-Brandon

I'd pick up a flourescent one, but I don't think I've seen a cordless one.~ Go Canucks Go! ~

i just bought a flourescent one, but i also have an LED headlamp. Straps around your head and is directional, one of the better investment i've made.

I used that LED light a lot for under-dash work at the dealership, but other than that they are pretty worthless. Not enough light output, IMO. I prefer the corded flourescent drop lights.
This the best fucking light ever for engine work: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item....re&dir=catalog'91 318is

The problem I've got with flourescent trouble lights is that it puts off a wierd light. I think incadescent is the way to go.-Brandon
