A flashlight is operable by a power source. The flashlight includes a body having a first end and a second end. The body is configured to support the power source. The flashlight also includes a first light source positioned adjacent the first end. The first light source is electrically coupled to the power source and fixed relative to the body. The flashlight further includes a second light source coupled to the body. The second light source is movable relative to the first light source about a hinge defining a pivot axis.

A socket includes a body having first and second ends and defining a longitudinal axis, a receptacle formed in the first end of the body, and an aperture in the body positioned between the first and second ends. An interior of the receptacle is visible through the aperture from a location exterior of the socket.

A battery tester engages a power tool battery and includes a housing having a cavity for receiving a stem of the power tool battery. The battery tester has a plurality of electrically conductive contacts disposed in the cavity and is configured to engage corresponding battery electrodes on the stem. A processor is mounted within the housing and communicates with the battery through the electrically conductive contacts. The processor measures a voltage level of the battery, and a loading circuit electrically loads the battery during measuring. One or more indicators are controlled by the processor. The processor activates the loading circuit for a predetermined period of time to measure a voltage level of the battery while under load, and then activates the indicators to provide a visual indication of remaining battery life. The battery tester is a stand-alone device where housing does not have a motor or a battery charger.
