I found these at Lowe's but apparently they don't sell them anymore. Walmart has this one which seems to be identical for about $22:

It's super bright, lasts for hours (there are three levels, high, low, and flashing (no idea what you'd use that for)). I've used mine working on my truck & car in the early evening dark several times. I also use one when I'm pressing pens in my house because my little work bench is currently pushed into a dark corner. I bought two of them for $20/ea. Now that Lowe's no longer carries them, I wish I'd bought a couple more. I brought one down to my boat yesterday because I needed to do some work in my battery compartment, the darkest place on the boat. I pushed it inside, turned it on and simply pointed it at the overhead and there was plenty for light to let me easily do my work without having to reposition it all the time.

It's charged via a micro-USB cable (provided), and four "gas gauge" lights to tell you when it's full. The charging port is completely sealed by a Lexan (?) door with an O-ring to keep moisture out. I don't know how waterproof it is, but the charging port's going to stay dry if you've got the door snapped down tight. You can also use it as a power brick to charge your phone / tablet, etc.

About the only thing that'd make it better would be a built in hook, but there's a handle the rotates 180 degrees, and it's be easy to rig something.

Overall, five stars & two thumbs up.

The flashing is used for when your vehicle breaks down on the side of the road. You can set it up like a warning light. Very cool lights.
