The NextLED 2000 Lumen Cordless Detachable Underhood & UV LED Work Light is a professional-grade rechargeable work light designed to illuminate your entire engine bay, undercarriage, or workspace with powerful, shadow-free lighting. Featuring two detachable LED light bars, integrated 395nm UV leak detection, and a telescoping underhood mount, it’s the ultimate lighting solution for detailers, mechanics, and DIY enthusiasts.

Key Features & Benefits

2-in-1 Detachable Light Bars Each LED light bar detaches from the main frame, giving you two independent work lights for underhood repairs, interior detailing, wheel wells, or inspections. It’s like getting two lights in one.

Powerful 2,000 Lumen Output Dual COB LED light bars produce up to 2,000 lumens of bright, even illumination with High, Low, and UV modes, making it easy to see every detail while reducing shadows.

Built-In 395nm UV Leak Detection Instantly switch to UV mode to locate refrigerant, coolant, oil, or dye-based leaks with professional precisionperfect for automotive diagnostics and inspections.

Fits Virtually Any Vehicle The telescoping aluminum frame extends from approximately 48″ to 77″, allowing it to fit most passenger cars, SUVs, trucks, and vans. Foam-padded hooks help protect painted surfaces from scratches.

360 Adjustable Light Positioning Rotate each light independently to direct illumination exactly where you need it, whether you’re detailing an engine bay or servicing components deep under the hood.

Long Runtime & USB-C Rechargeable The integrated 8,000mAh lithium-ion battery delivers up to 3 hours on High and 5-7 hours on Low, with fast USB-C charging in approximately 4 hours. Battery level indicators keep you informed throughout the job.

Professional Shop Durability Built with an impact-resistant aluminum frame (IK07 rated) for demanding garage environments while remaining lightweight enough for everyday use.

How to Use

Step 1: Fully charge the work light using the included USB-C charging cable.

Step 2: Extend the telescoping frame to match the width of your vehicle’s hood.

Step 3: Hang the foam-padded hooks securely on each side of the hood.

Step 4: Select High, Low, or UV mode depending on your application.

Step 5: If needed, remove either light bar and use it independently for interior work, wheel wells, undercarriages, or other tight spaces.

Pro Tip: During engine bay detailing or ceramic coating installations, detach one light and position it from the side while leaving the second mounted overhead. This creates multi-angle lighting that makes dirt, residue, and missed spots much easier to see.

Why We Love It

At Car Supplies Warehouse, we love the NextLED Underhood Work Light because it’s one of the most versatile shop lights we’ve used. The detachable light bars make it far more useful than a traditional underhood light, allowing you to quickly transition from lighting an engine bay to inspecting wheel barrels, interiors, or suspension components. Add in the built-in UV leak detection, long battery life, and cordless operation, and it becomes a tool you’ll reach for every single day in the garage or detailing shop.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the light bars be used separately?

Yes. Both LED light bars detach from the mounting frame and can be used independently for detailing interiors, wheel wells, under vehicles, or any other workspace.
