The tool for light ? Where is that tool i am really curious ... I didn't heared about something like this till now .. The only tool i know that makes the image brighter it's the Dodge Tool ... and i don't think so that u can get the same effect by using that "tool" you are talking about

I tried that tool on the same image and it's just impossible to get the same effect not even near .... So it isn't a good idea to use it , Better follow the tutorial >.> even if it take more time.
