Abstract: A safety spray wand with a selectively adjustable or interchangeable tip. The wand will selectively provide a high pressure or a low pressure discharge from a discharge tube. The wand has a handle with a pistol grip in combination with a large squeeze trigger. The pistol grip is extended and is molded around a receiving tube that projects downwardly from a discharge tube to thereby form a safety protection guard for an operator's hand while protecting the trigger from accidently being actuated. The receiving tube not only serves as a guard but also as a conduit to which a pressure source is attached and through which the fluid is directed to the discharge tube.

Abstract: A fluorescent lamp housing for fluorescent tubes comprising an elongate body with a curved central back and curved legs arranged to fit closely around a fluorescent tube. A wiring chamber is isolated from a lamp chamber by an insert strip; electrical sockets are positioned at opposite ends of the lamp chamber and are held in the housing by positioning clips and end plates. The end plates are attached by screws to the clips and are attached to tubular extensions of the wiring chamber. The tubular extensions have ends press-fitted into the wiring chamber and serve as wire guides and as journals that are clamped in mounting brackets. An insertion and removal aid is preferably provided to facilitate insertion and removal of the lamp with respect to the closely fitting housing.
