Not for me, there is enough goes wrong with commercial ones let alone one fashioned from vac cleaner parts, not heavy unless you would restrict it to a light. I would be buying one with a UL listing on it.

Darkside...I know your on the other side of the island but PRINCESS AUTO has retractable drop lites on sale in the new flyer for $24.99...down from $34.99.
They ship for a flat rate of $4.00 plus I think $0.40 cents a pound and the retractable light isn't that heavy.
Might be worth a call at...
