ABSTRACT:
A trouble light for car mechanics, etc., which utilizes magnets to position and mount the trouble light so as to more effectively direct light on to the desired work area. In particular, it is primarily designed for use in relatively close spaces where it is either inconvenient or impossible to employ conventional means such as a hook or a second person to position and direct the light. The light includes a bracket composed of a non-ferromagnetic material such as aluminum, a plurality of magnets mounted onto the bracket, a plurality of angular ferromagnetic pole pieces for mounting the magnets onto the bracket, and a heat shield for protecting the magnets from heat radiated by the light bulb. The bracket and the heat shield are mounted to the light housing of the trouble light such that the shield is interposed between the bracket and the housing.
