Customer Reviews for Milwaukee 250 Lumens Internal Rechargeable Penlight with Laser

I am returning it because they stopped working

I purchased this light around a year ago. It gets medium usage, typically 6-10 cycles on in a week for less than an hours usage. It is typically just while I am scoping out jobs for work not for actually completing jobs (have better work lights for that). The on/off button has slowly been getting worse over the last few months and is now unusable. It began by occasionally sticking but has now reached a point it sticks 100% of the time and requires the use of a knife or small slotted screwdriver to pop it back out. It is now garbage to me. It is far too expensive of a flashlight to have such a short useful life. I valued the rechargeable nature and the laser pointer but those features are not enough to justify the spend to replace it. I will stick to a Coast light for 20% of the cost and just accept that I have to consume batteries in it but it will last me years for much less money. I did try to have a warranty claim on the light but was required to ship at my expense to a service center which just seems silly for this item.

I like everything about this light

I've bought three of these. Initially I bought one for myself and one for my dad. When the light is new, it's a good EDC light. Bright, and the rubber end is very helpful. But, after three months mine wouldn't take a charge an flashed green and red when I tried to charge it. So I replaced it... same exact thing... green and red flashing and not charging after a few months. My dad didn't care for the laser, so he gave me his, and it did the same thing. DO NOT BUY until Milwaukee fixes issue.

Absolute chad of a light.

Save your money this is a total rip the flash light won't last 90days it was a great ideal but not properly built I couldn't ha e been more unsatisfied with Milwaukee I typically sound like a rep for them I standby them against others on the field but this light was a disappointment to me and I just can't seem to believe it's made by Milwaukee

Ran for a month and a half and now it won't charge. Blinking orange red and green.

Laser is hard to see

About 2 months old and won't charge, just has blinking red/green light when plugged in. Huge fan of Milwaukee tools and was disappointed when I brought it into the store and they said they couldn't help me out.

I use it in duty, its great-

only had this light for a little over 2 months and now all it does is blink red and green and won't hold a charge

Im a Diesel mechanic and I use this light daily working on heavy equipment in the field and in the shop. It stays clipped on my pants pocket at all times, the only complaint I have is the clip broke, but its getting replaced for free. Battery life is fine for me, when you first get it run it till it dies then fully charge it. Rinse and repeat, its lithium they like getting a full charge after being drained fully.

I used this to light up dark areas when I work on machines at work. I bought it because everyone said Milwaukee tools were best, and for the price I figured it would last a long time. used it for about 6 months then it started flashing red green. tried different charging cords and nothing made a difference. Got on the website to see if I could find any information but wasn't much help. I will go back to using the cheap lights, batteries are free at work.

great light

I'm a union pipefitter live the laser. Does not hold charge and the clip broke 3 days after buying. Doesn't charge most the time does the death flash

Bought in the summer of '23 and threw away the package and receipt because its Milwaukee. Winter of 23 the light started flickering and the on/off switch wouldn't work sometimes. Now Jan '24 it won't charge and I have no way to return it. Milwaukee doesn't do repairs for this model. Pretty bummed as it was a nice light the first few months.

First time I went to charge I got the flashing red & green and was shocked because I haven’t ever “ knock on wood” had a problem with any of my Milwaukee tool or lights. I loved the light/lazer combo while it worked.
