Abstract
A spotlight having a generally cylindrical housing with an integral radially extending pistol grip handle at one end, a cord retractor in the rear and a seal beam light closing the open end of the cylindrical housing. The lamp is held in a shock absorbing position by projections on the housing and an integral trigger connected to the housing through a living hinge actuates the switch to turn the light on and off. A trigger lock holds the light "on" and the trigger guard prevents the trigger from being turned on inadvertently. An improved cord holder is provided which utilizes a pinch connection.
