Exclamation Pit tools help??

Hey guys I am shopping around for a pit lamp I can set up after I roll out my pit mat for working with good light. I did see the much more lamps and stuff but I want a lamp that you can plug into the wall out let and set it up no need for power supply's. Or a pit lamp that you can charge with your charger!! Help

I use this Makita. I'll warn you though.. Makita is very proud of their 18v battery. It is a great battery though, will last all day long.

Picked up two yesterday. They are virtually indistinguishable from my Ottlite (that was purchased a decade ago). We will see how long they last, but they are definitely bright!
