Extension Light For Flexible Remote Illumination
An extension electric light device, inspired by a carpenter's tape measures, uses a 15 foot cord stored in a case with reloading on one side and an incandescent lamp socket on the other.

The unit can be hung by a leather strap and requires no separate lamp, since the socket and plug are standard.
