摘要

An illuminated tool includes a solid core handle, a power source encapsulated within the solid core handle, a LED light source attached to and situated at the first end of the solid core handle and proximate to a metal shaft attached to and extending from the first end of the handle. Wires situated in a bore within the solid core handle extend through the bore from the LED light source to the power source. A cover is removably fastened to the second end of the solid core handle to serve as access and cover for the power source and also contains a switch which serves to complete the circuit from power source to LED light source.
