I first purchased the lower priced Makita DML81 with one 18 volt with full power of 3000 Lumens (equivalent to two 100 watt incandescent bulbs) for about $170 on Amazon, and it was not bright enough, so I sent it back. I then purchased this more expensive Makita DML809 model at 10,000 Lumens requiring two 18 volt batteries for about $80 more, and it was so much better. It seems to be very well made, and a fan comes on when the unit is running hot. This is the brightest light (requires two 18 volt batteries) that I could find on the market running on battery power, and it is still not super bright. For example, I have a very well lit 20 ft X 30 ft work shop with probably 30 florescent T8 lights (at about 30,000 lumens), and if I had a power outage, I would need to buy two more of these Makita 10,000 lumens lights to equal my shop lights brightness. Don't be afraid to move up to 10,000 lumens output with this light, because I think you will not at all say it is too bright. You will almost always want more light. It is like a closet, you always fill it up and need more space. For abut $80 more you get over three times the brightness over the lower priced Makita model DML81, and you will be glad you did in my opinion. You can always turn down the brightness level if you do not need it, but I always end up using mine on full power 10,000 lumens 95% of the time, and wish I had a little more. I think this is the best light available for today's technology. It comes with a power cord that you can plug it into the wall AC outlet if you do not need it on battery power. I really find this light so useful and handy on so many things I use to do in the dark or very dim light.
