Thumbs up Turnigy Pit Light







Hello fellas, received a new goody in the mail today that I was a little skeptic on buying. I looked around and see no one has posted anything about it( I’m sure it is rebranded) but I am highly impressed with the build quality, machining, overall feels like great quality. I paid $32 for this light + shipping. Comes with a nice case, power plug for both cell phone style and power bank as you charge your batteries. I am posting pics. The light is super bright and changes tones and brightness. I’m not sure if we can post the site where I bought it from but we all know where you can get Turnigy products. Thought I would share to save some bucks to buy more parts.

How stable is it with the thin base?

Edit: About $26 shipped on ebay.
Edit 2: The one you linked too has more LEDs and the adjustable color temp is a bonus too. Certainly worth another $10.

Although the touch sensitive buttons can be a pain, it's a big step up from the predecessor which used motion to activate the light. Pretty frustrating to be working on your car and the light goes off because it saw movement. This is the same product as the Pro-Tek and GForce LED pit lights that sell for approximately double the price. While it is a little tippy, it's much smaller and lighter than the old-school 120-volt Ott-Lite. Light output is also superior.

I tried to bang into to it to see if it would tip , but stayed steady. Really impressed with . It is not cheap toy feel. It feels like a high end equipment. Of course time will tell but after my years in 10th, 5th and now 8th scale Turnigy products have been great to me

Owch... identical but far cheaper than the skyrc one I bought!

Love that it can run from a USB power bank if I don't have power, or plug directly into a 12V PSU. I either double sided tape mine to the table or sit the power supply on top. I'll probably switch to velcro some time soon.

I have a cheaper version of this and absolutely love it. It add a little extra light to my small area. And being pretty adjustable is nice too
