A lighting apparatus is provided with a housing forming a battery housing and a light housing separated via a partitioning wall. A light module is supported by the light housing and includes a heat sink located at least partially within the light housing and at least one LED supported by the heat sink. A battery receptacle formed within the battery housing to slidingly receive a battery pack at least partially into the battery housing. An intake opening is formed within the partitioning wall and an air vent is formed in fluid communication with the light housing. In operation, an airflow passes in thermal contact with the battery pack from the battery housing into the light housing through the intake opening, and from the light housing in thermal contact with the heat sink out of the air vent.
