      Have 3 trouble lights w/ metal cages and 1 plastic -- 
illumination 
      isn't the problem. 
      
      Nothing is colder than a 32 degree engine compartment. Imagine 
wearing 
      metal mittens from the freezer -- that's what it feels like. 
Can keep 
      every part of your body warm except the hands. Will cut 
yourself badly 
      without realizing it because of numbness. 
      
      I do work after dark, but only as absolutely necessary. 
Otherwise my 
      mechanicing days now limited to Saturday and Sunday after 
church. 
      
      Thank goodness I drive old Fords that never break down...
