Abstract
A portable cordless electric utility lamp includes a base having two parts which mate in an assembled condition to define an elongated handle which has a hollow distal end portion receiving a rechargeable battery pack. An elongated light-transmitting tube fits telescopically between cylindrical wall portions and retaining structures on the base parts for holding them together, being affixed thereto by screws. An elongated fluorescent bulb is plugged into the base and disposed in the tube. A cap closes the distal end of the tube and has a foam rubber cushion which seats against the distal end of the bulb for supporting and cushioning it.
