Abstract: The invention relates to a fluoresent worklight having a fluorescent lamp socket as an integral part of an adjustable lens. The lampholder lens is positioned between two half-shells of the worklight handle. Two arcuate flanges are provided at one end of the lampholder lens which fit into two associated arcuate tracks on the inside of the handle. This arrangement allows the entire lampholder lens and lamp, as an integral unit, to pivot as much as 90.degree. from the handle to provide easy access to the lamp for removal and replacement as well as positioning the lamp to provide more efficient lighting to the work site.
