The present invention is an ergonomically suitable handle that houses a power supply such as a dry battery. The handle is particularly suitable for use with a hand-held electrically luminous umbrella. The handle has a hollow longitudinally elongated grip body. The grip body has a pair of spaced parallel elongated co-planar faces, and therebetween, a pair of elongated convexly curved faces. The cross-sectional shape and the dimensions of the grip body are selected to enable a hand to close around the grip body in a comfortable and secure grip. The interior of the grip body has a shaft housing for securing the proximal end of an umbrella shaft, and a power supply housing for housing four dry cells in two rows of two dry cells. To provide circumferential strength, there are a collar and an end cap joined to the distal and proximal ends of the grip body, respectively.
