The reflector assembly includes a base having an upper peripheral edge defining an interior volume, a light source disposed within the interior volume and a cover plate disposed over the interior volume. The carrying case includes a top portion and a bottom portion, movable between a first closed position and a second open position with the reflector assembly received in the bottom portion of the carrying case. The divider is removably received within the top portion of the carrying case and is disposed so as to provide a wall within the carrying case to separate the tools from the reflector assembly to prevent damage to the cover plate while the carrying case is in the first closed position.
