Try to get something with a variety of light settings, and preferably no emergency blinkie.

I've used my light and motion bike light for working on the car. Waaaay too bright. 1500 lumens. It cast shadows and causes huge eye strain. You see what you are looking at, and nothing else. It's also more a spot light anyway.

Get a good low/med power flood to start with. Much more usable / versatile. Also, pass on the emergency flasher feature if possible. It's one more annoying thing to toggle through when under the car. you don't want disco lights.
