In addition to keeping the bulb tight, the drop light should not be used
as an extension cord - even if provided with outlets. Plugging and
unplugging other devices can cause arcing with the same disastrous
consequences. The same cautions apply to use of these lights near
gasoline or gasoline vapors.
