Handheld Fluorescent Lights

This week's tip is from hoosierwindowtek ~
Handheld Fluorescent Lights:

Most of us probably use the handheld flourescent lights that either are an extension cord, or are connected to a cord reel. This tip works best with the ones that are straight and not the ones that have a slight bend in them:

Take 2 medium sized suction cups and drill holes in the thick part where the hook usually wraps around them. Then put some long zip ties through the holes and wrap around the light to fasten the cups to the light. Then, when you need a light in a tight spot handsfree, stick it to the glass inside. It works great for cutting around rearview mirror brackets on the inside of the windshield without needing someone else to help, or illuminating the corners of quarter windows.

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
