Now powered by a higher-capacity rechargeable battery, the

 portable LED work light provides up to seven hours of continuous use on one charge. The new LITESTIX LS36SMDX model is designed to train task lighting wherever it’s needed without cords getting in the way. The light boosts visibility where general lighting isn’t strong enough, such as inside engine compartments, vehicle interiors, and underneath lifts, as well as when work is under way at night. 

Upgrading the rechargeable lithium battery from 1800 mAH (milliampere-hour) to 2600 mAh, means the latest LITESTIX model can deliver another full hour of performance. The work light boasts 36 LED bulbs that together generate 1,200 lumens of bright white light. Each lamp also features high and low brightness settings. 

Thanks to its high-efficiency LEDs, LITESTIX uses less energy and stays cool, making it easy to move around a vehicle without worrying about getting burnt. Designed for a long life of heavy-duty use, each LITESTIX is encased in an impact-resistant polycarbonate housing. Other key features are an innovative telescoping holder and magnetic swivel mounts that let you put it where you need it.

LITESTIX also solves the century-old problem of how to sit a shop light snugly on a vehicle’s hood, roof, or other points on the body. Placement on the vehicle is often necessary to get the best visibility, but traditional lamps roll off. To accomplish this feat, LITESTIX has dual 90-degree swiveling handles equipped with magnetic ends that enable mounting the light tube on any flat or off-angle metallic surface. 

The lamp’s all-steel telescoping cradle frame can extend from 49.5˝ to 79.75˝ in length and can secure to the underside of a vehicle hood, for example, with the help of grabbing hooks attached at both ends of the frame. When used without the cradle frame, LITESTIX can be hung using recessed hooks inside the handles that twist out as needed.

      Registration Now Open for AAPEX 2025
      By Counterman
      The Automotive Aftermarket Products Expo (AAPEX) announced that registration is now open for AAPEX 2025. The annual event brings together buyers and sellers from every segment of the $2.3 trillion global aftermarket. AAPEX 2025 will take place at the Venetian Expo and Caesars Forum in Las Vegas, from Nov. 4–6, 2025.
      “For 30 years, AAPEX has attracted tens of thousands of global attendees and exhibitors who come to see the newest products, cutting-edge technologies and the best business—and hands-on training the aftermarket has to offer,” said President of MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers Paul McCarthy. “Yet every year when we ask participants why they attend, the top answer is consistently ‘for the networking’ because AAPEX is where business gets done.”
      AAPEX 2025 Theme: Ready for Every Shift
      The theme for AAPEX 2025 is “Ready for every shift.” This message highlights the resilience of the aftermarket supply chain. Attendees will hear more about this during the keynote breakfast, headlined by Hockey Legend Wayne Gretzky. Known for rising above physical disadvantages, Gretzky succeeded by thinking strategically. His story fits well with the event’s message of adaptability and change.
      Industry Collaboration Drives Event Excellence
      AAPEX is co-produced by MEMA Aftermarket Suppliers and the Auto Care Association. These organizations listen to industry feedback and implement annual improvements. Their efforts ensure AAPEX 2025 continues to meet attendee and exhibitor needs.
      AAPEX 2025 Offers Unmatched Global Reach
      Attendees can expect more than 2,700 global exhibitors and 5,500 booths. Exhibitors will include manufacturers, remanufacturers, tool and equipment makers, sourcing companies, warehouses, and service shops. These companies represent every corner of the aftermarket—from collision to tires.
      More than 45,000 professionals from over 128 countries will attend. They range from senior executives to entry-level technicians. Attendees value the exclusive hands-on learning and global networking opportunities.
      AAPEX 2025 Features Record-Breaking Training Sessions
      AAPEX 2025 will offer its largest selection of training sessions ever. The event has already confirmed over 75 sessions. Presenters include WorldPac and NAPA Auto Parts, among others. Many exhibitors will also host technical sessions at their booths.
      These sessions offer invaluable development for professionals at all career stages. Topics will cover everything from technical skills to business operations.
      Joe’s Garage Returns with New Highlights
      Joe’s Garage remains a major attraction at AAPEX. The space includes 10 operational service bays for real-world training. Throughout AAPEX 2025, attendees can join dozens of educational sessions and view 27 product demonstrations.
      The demonstrations will showcase innovations in automotive service and repair. These live demos offer technicians valuable insights into new tools and processes.
      New Student Competition Debuts
      To help address the U.S. technician shortage, AAPEX continues supporting vocational and trade students. This year, AAPEX 2025 adds a competitive student event. Teams will race to disassemble and reassemble an engine inside Joe’s Garage.
      This high-energy challenge highlights emerging talent and promotes careers in the aftermarket industry.
      Enhanced Networking at AAPEX 2025
      Based on attendee feedback, AAPEX 2025 introduces new networking experiences. A live band will play throughout the show. Daily “booth crawls” will encourage exploration of interactive exhibits.
      Attendees can relax in expanded seating areas on the second floor. The reimagined “Beers & Gears” reception will return to Joe’s Garage on November 4, 2025, from 4:00-6:00 p.m.
      “I’ve had the good fortune of being part of the automotive aftermarket for the better part of 40 years,” said Auto Care Association President and CEO Bill Hanvey. “One of the most remarkable aspects of AAPEX is that despite the magnitude of the market, this show is a bit like a homecoming every year – people genuinely enjoy reuniting and exploring how different parts of the market are addressing our current challenges.”
      Register Now and Reserve Your Hotel
      Interested attendees can register online. The AAPEX 2025 registration fee is $50 until June 27, 2025. After that, it rises to $75 through September 26, and $100 after.
      Training sessions cost $150 each. A discounted package of five sessions is available for $400.
      Qualified trade students and media may register for free. AAPEX encourages attendees to book hotels early through onPeak, the official housing partner. Shuttle services will be available for convenience.

      Is everyone switching to EVs now? How’s the experience so far?
      By WiperTech008
      Hey guys, need your advice on something real quick. I’ve been really interested in EVs lately, but I’m still on the fence about making the switch. I’m still trying to wrap my head around the cost vs. value of EVs vs gas cars. Can anyone share some real-world advice?
      How bad is charging really? And do the lower maintenance costs actually make up for battery replacements down the road?
      Would especially love to hear from those who’ve owned both – what made you choose electric (or stick with gas)? Appreciate any tips from you pros!

      link hidden, please login to view are open now. “The automotive industry faces a significant skills gap,” said Emily Schneider, Senior Director of Marketing at NAPA. “Experienced professionals are critical to guiding and supporting young technicians and students entering the field. This award is our way of recognizing and celebrating those individuals who are making a real difference. We are excited to partner with proponents of industry partnerships – ShopOwner and Tomorrow’s Technician – to encourage ongoing mentorship programs.”
      The Mentorship Award celebrates automotive professionals dedicated to mentoring and developing future technicians in-house as well as through partnerships with vocational and technical schools. It is open to automotive shops of all sizes and affiliations in the 50 United States, recognizing mentorship’s vital role in fostering talent and strengthening the industry.
      Two nominees will be recognized each month in print, digital and video formats. One nominee will be named the 2025 winner, and will be recognized by NAPA and ShopOwner at a special event to be held later in the year.
      “Many shop owners struggle to find good people at any time, let alone during an ongoing labor shortage,” said Doug Kaufman, editorial director of ShopOwner. “Even when they do find an ideal candidate, they don’t have any guarantee of a good fit. Instead of perpetuating a revolving door of transitory ‘jobs,’ we are looking to celebrate a commitment to building careers through training and mentoring.”
