Actually, when I think of how many times I have struggled to see a nut or bolt deep under the hood of my car, while I am doing maintenance or repair, this is a great idea!

As a gift, I probably would not turn them down.


But they are not something that I would find to be very useful.

When I am working in an area where you might be inclined to use these, they would not do me any good because when I work in hard to reach or see places, I usually close my eyes.

It helps me to visualize what I am doing. And then I go by feel. I can usually accomplish the job much faster than someone who is trying to see what is happening.

To each his own.

That's the point.  Once the spanner's engaged, you don't need the light.

I always find I need the light, however, to FIND where to engage the spanner.

Still brilliant.   Cool
