A portable flashlight includes a housing having a first end, a second end, a base, and an axis running from the first end to the second end of the housing. A rechargeable battery is connected to the base of the housing, so that the battery may be used as a stand for the battery. In the first end of the flashlight, a parabolic reflector having a focus is positioned, so that the focus of the reflector is positioned on the axis of the housing. A fixture or socket for holding an electric light is positioned so as to hold the light at the focus of the reflector. A handle is connected to the housing, where the handle has a first end and a second end. An elastic cord runs from the first end of said handle to the second end of the handle; and one end of the elastic cord may be released from the handle, wrapped around a support for the flashlight, and reattached to the handle. The handle may be rotated relative to the axis of the housing.
