I use it to find stuff at night. Like driving along on a dark back highway, I can spy side roads ahead and light them up as they take off into the woods to see if they might be possible campsites. I don't have to turn the van to get light on stuff. Also handy to use around camp or for helping light up tasks around the van at night and for an extra strong nighttime driving light in deer invested areas. Good back up light, too.

The fireworks make our doggies real nervous..and last year some nut had an assault rifle somewhere nearby..that was a bit disconcerting.
