Multi-spectrum lighting device with plurality of switches
A multi-spectrum emitting device includes one or more emitters configured to emit in a first spectrum and a second spectrum, a switching mechanism with at least two switching elements. configured to change an emitted light from a first spectrum to a second spectrum, and to change a blink pattern of emitted light. The first spectrum may be a non-visible light spectrum and the second spectrum may be a visible light spectrum. Devices may also include a unitary housing extending substantially upward and inward from a base of the device, the housing configured to emit light therethrough and to receive a power source for the device therein.
