Abstract: A power tool (e.g., a pneumatic tool) includes a tool housing, a motor disposed in the tool housing, and a switch coupled to the tool housing and configured to control operation of the motor. A light unit includes a light unit housing removably coupleable to the tool housing. The light unit includes a light disposed in the light unit housing, a controller, and a sensor. The sensor is configured to sense actuation of the switch, and the controller is configured to cause the light to turn on when the sensor senses that the switch is actuated.
