Press Release Summary: Many automotive professionals and hobbyists have tired of
using poor quality tools that fall far short of their expectations, and are now
trying out professional grade tools that were designed for automotive technicians.


Press Release Body: John Schira, spokesman for Maxxeon Inc., claims that many
professionals as well as car guys and girls are no longer satisfied with
\"do-it-yourself\" tools. \"It isn\'t just technicians that have big investments in
tools; serious hobbyists often have tens of thousands of dollars invested in their
vehicle and they are beginning to demand tools that are of professional quality even
though they cost more than the ordinary DIY products.\" Mr. Schira continues, \"This
includes task lighting for the shop, which up until now has included many
sub-standard, poorly performing tools. This is why we have introduced the
WorkStarT1200, a professional lighting tool that resolves the shortcomings of other
work lights.\" These features are illustrated in a new video at this link

The energy saving WorkStarT is not a flashlight - it is a portable, cordless,
rechargeable task light that uses a state-of-the-art high efficiency diode to
produce light. These light emitting diodes, known as LEDs, are electronic light
sources and are far more efficient than traditional light bulbs which use burning
filaments to produce light.

The WorkStarT features a unique two axis moveable light head that lets the
technician direct the light exactly where he needs it. The user simply suspends the
light by its retractable hook or its two coplanar high powered rare earth magnets
and turns the LED light head to direct the light where he wants it. This solves
another especially aggravating problem for mechanics - trying to repair a vehicle
while the work light glares into their eyes. The WorkStarT uses rechargeable
batteries and because of the efficiency of the LED, it lights up the work area for
over 5 hours on a single charge.

Maxxeon is a manufacturer of lighting solutions for the work place.
