Abstract
A lighting apparatus includes a first portion and a second portion which form an enclosure for a light source. The first portion extends from a first end to a second end, where the first end has a collar adapted to couple with an electrical socket with a snap fit connection. The electrical socket receives a light source therein. The second end of the first portion is hingedly coupled with the second portion, thereby allowing removal of the light source.
