Cordless LED light driving wall module and night light
A novel lighting system utilizing low power consumption LEDs to provide safe, economical and decorative lighting. In a first embodiment, and acrylic candle body having a 45 degree reflector is mounted on top of a LED source to direct light along the body of the light and outwardly as directed by the reflector. The acrylic body can be rotated to point the reflected light in the desired direction. In a second embodiment, the acrylic candle and reflector are replaced by fiber optic ports and a light driver for connecting fiber optic strands that can be side lighting or end lighting to provide lighting at points distant from the light source. In a third embodiment, the fiber optic strand in run in parallel inside or outside a transparent liquid conduit such as a modified garden hose, a beverage dispenser, or a kitchen faucet to light the conduit and or the spray of the hose in a single or multiple colors.
1. A fiber optic illumination device comprising:
a light source for connection to an electrical energy source;
a circuit electrically connected to said electrical energy source for providing DC voltage to said light source, wherein said DC voltage is in the range selected from 2.0 to 4.0 Volts;
said light source comprising at least one Light Emitting Diode (“L.E.D.”) powered by the DC voltage;
at least one fiber optic cable for selectively connecting to said light source, said at least one fiber optic cable having a light input end and an opposite light output end, and further being adapted to selectively emit light radially from a lateral surface or axially from said light output end thereof
wherein further at least a portion of said fiber optic cable is installed within a conduit carrying liquid for illuminating the liquid
wherein further said at least one L. E. D. is multi-color and,
a color control means for controlling the color of said multi-color L.E.D;
a filter condition sensing means for sensing the condition of a filter in fluid communication with the liquid in said conduit;
wherein said color control means changes the color of said at least one L.E.D. when at least one condition sensed by said filter condition sensing means changes, thereby changing the color of the light illuminating the liquid.
2. The fiber optic illumination device of claim 1 , further comprising a light control means for selective illuminating and discontinuing illumination of the L.E.D. in response to a predetermined condition.
3. The fiber optic illumination device of claim 2 , wherein said light control means is a timing circuit for strobing said L.E.D.
4. The fiber optic illumination device of claim 2 , wherein said illumination control means is a flow switch for illuminating said L.E.D. in response to liquid flowing in said conduit.
