The disclosure provides a portable light. The portable light includes a housing having a front surface, a rear surface, and an internal space for receiving electronic components and a battery. The portable light also includes a chip-on-board (COB) assembly. The COB assembly includes a substrate, a matrix of individual light emitting diode (LED) chips mounted to the substrate, and an outer coating covering the matrix of LED chips. The front surface of the housing is curved in one direction and the COB assembly is correspondingly curved and mounted to the front surface, such that individual LED chips are positioned about the curve and orientated to direct light outwardly about the curve to provide a collective beam angle greater than 220 degrees. The portable light further includes a front lens cover to protect the COB assembly.
