[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape measure is ready to tackle some serious work . I like that it has black rubber parts that help with grip . I never thought having a light on a tape measure would be handy but it is . I could see the measurement in a low lit basement with. I problem . The numbers are also very easy to read and that's a huge one for me . Nobody likes a tape with horrible printed numbers or that are too small . I love that the light is rechargeable and I don't have to worry about batteries . The light button is perfectly placed for easy on and off with one finger from the underside . If you're on the fence about this tape measure just go for it .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The DEWALT 25' LED rechargeable lighted tape measure (DWHT35625) has a powerful built-in LED light to illuminate the blade and measuring area in low-light conditions. It has a 17' Max Reach, based on max tape extension of an average end-user. The tape measure has a reinforced housing to withstand a 100' drop onto packed soil. The LED has an auto-shutoff feature, which occurs after 60 seconds of continuous illumination. This auto-shutoff feature allows you to continue working without having to stop and turn off the LED after each use. The LED tape measure includes a sturdy metal belt-clip and has an overall size of approximately 3.5 inches wide by 3.5 inches tall by 2.25 inches thick. The approximate total weight is 1 pound, 5 ounces. The tape measure includes a 6” Rip-Shield coating, which maximizes blade life by helping to reduce breakage at the hook. Battery and Charger cable: The tool has an internal rechargeable battery and comes with a 5.25” USB type A to USB micro charger cable. The battery is rated for 3 hours of continuous runtime, when fully charged. Warranty: The tool is covered by a limited lifetime and (1) year electronics warranty. Uses and Feedback: The tape measure is comfortable to handle, and I had no problems with tape rewinding or binding after use. The tape lock switch is quite firm and reliably holds the tape without any slippage. The tape measure stays put on either a standard pants belt or when clipped onto a tool pouch. The tape hook is sturdy and securely fastened with 3 metal rivets. I especially appreciated the large double-sided print on the tape with measurements by the 1/16th. The double-sided tape allows for easier measurement actions when working overhead on framing, plumbing, HVAC, or general construction projects. The tape has red highlights every 16 inches for marking studs as well as the black diamond markers found on most common tape measures. I recommend this tool for both personal DIY and professional usage.
