A portable worklight assembly that may be used both as a stand-alone unit positionable on a work surface and optionally as a supported unit readily mountable on a tripod or other elevating support structure calling for only a minimum of effort by the user in going from one mounting configuration to the other. The worklight assembly includes one or more worklight heads that are mounted on a base portion. In one embodiment the base portion includes a linearly extending support member for the worklight heads and a number of support feet extending outward from the support member, which are disposed to engage the work surface and provide support for the worklight assembly when the assembly is used as a stand-alone unit positioned on the work surface. A mounting mechanism is provided for easy one-step mounting of the base portion on an elevating support structure and demounting of the base portion from the elevating support structure. The mounting mechanism is captured on the worklight assembly so as to be retained with the assembly when the assembly is used as a stand-alone unit, yet the mechanism is in a ready operative disposition on the worklight assembly ready for attachment to the elevating support structure. The mounting mechanism has a disposition on the worklight assembly free of interference with the work surface when the assembly is positioned as a stand-alone unit on the work surface. An electrical power junction is disposed on the worklight assembly for distributing electrical power to the worklight heads in multi-head embodiments.
