Default Good trouble lights?

A.K.A. Drop Lights. I need one, but all of the ones I've encountered
in the stores are absolute crap. On-line catalogs look like they're the
same.
I'm just looking for one that's not hard (cheap/brittle/uncomfy)
plastic on the outside. The "rubberized" orange and yellow ones with
wire cages used to be pretty common in the stores years ago, but not any
more. Now it's plastic, plastic, plastic. Sometimes halogen bulbs,
sometimes florescent bulbs, but always plastic handles. Usually with
cheap, ****ty cords to complete the package.
McMaster has one with a rubber handle, but it's $lightly expen$ive.
Any other places to look? Except ebay--I hate ebay.
