A combined work light and dual power cord device includes a light-emitting assembly including a protective cage with an access door. A handle is rotatably conjoined to the light-emitting assembly that has a corrugated outer surface. An axial bore is formed along an entire length thereof. A first hook is connected to a top end of the light-emitting assembly. A second hook is connected to a handle bottom end. Mechanisms are included for rotating the handle about a bottom end of the light-emitting assembly and rotating the second hook about the handle bottom end. Primary and secondary power cords are coupled to the handle. A mechanism is included for automatically and simultaneously distributing first and second currents to the primary and secondary power cords respectively so that the second current is only transmitted to the secondary power cord if the first current is passing through the primary power cord.
