  • Patent number: 7303452
    Abstract: A kayak paddle safety lighting system incorporated into a kayak paddle that may serve as a set of illumination or running lights more effective than current deck mounted running lights. The lighting system includes an operational switch located in the handle of the paddle, LEDs located in the paddles are preferably illuminated by activation of the switch and an included battery. In its preferred embodiment, the system includes a microcontroller which is programmed with a plurality of different operational lighting modes including steady dim and bright, intermittent flashing and distress signals as flashing the S.O.S. code. In a further preferred embodiment the components in the system are wireless, with the electrical communication being by means of an rf signal.
