trouble light - complete enclosure verses grill

Does anyone know if a trouble light is sold that seals up completely. Stan dard trouble lights close up in front with a grill. I'm looking for someth ing like a plexiglass shield instead. With cfl's heat should not be a prob lem. The unit does NOT have to be gas tight, but it does have to preclude any material escaping in case of bulb damage.



I know you can purchase integrated units that are sealed totally but that's not what I want. I want to be able to change the bulb.



There are aluminum shrouds with a holding clamp that would have worked grea t, but they are completely open and expose the lamp to damage.



Thanks

Check for LED type, they should last forever and not ever require a bulb ch ange:)

Have you looked at this type of fluorescent bulb unit, that has a cover over the bulb ?
