A supporting device for trouble light is made of a plate member having a magnetized surface and a clip member projecting away from the magnetized surface. The clip member is made of a continuous resilient wire generally defining a M-shape having two lateral portions fixed on diametrically opposed sides of the plate member. The intermediate portion of the wire between the lateral portions defines a round recess with a narrowing gap adjacent the lateral portions for allowing access of the handle of the trouble light. The gap defines a distance smaller than the diameter of the round recess which resiliently spreads when the handle is introduced in or removed from the recess. The lateral portions are held by grooved wings on opposite sides of the plate member and by radially projecting ends inserted in the plate member.

A supporting device for a trouble light having a tubular handle and a light socket axially extending from said handle, said device comprising: a substantially flat plate member having a magnetized surface and a spring clip member projecting perpendicularly from said plate member in a direction opposite said magnetized surface, said clip member essentially consisting of one continuous resilient wire disposed in a flat narrow plane diametrically crossing said plate member generally defining a M-shape in said plane, said M-shape having two lateral portions and an intermediate portion, said lateral portion being fixed to said plate member on its periphery, said intermediate portion defining a round recess between both of said lateral portions, said intermediate portion leaving a narrowing gap adjacent the lateral portions for allowing access of said handle in said recess, said gap defining a distance smaller than the diameter of said round recess, whereby the introduction of said handle through said gap resiliently spreads the gap due the resiliency of the wire, the latter resiliently gripping the handle along said flat plane when located inside said recess, said magnetized surface adapted to rest on a magnetic surface.
