Abstract: A stair rail light attachable between first and second vertical stair rail posts and having an elongated central housing whose interior mounts an extrusion designed to hold and position a plurality of LED carrier members wherein the housing slidably engages respective mounting plugs pivotally attached to respective stair rail posts, thereby permitting the length of the rail light to be adjusted in the field.

Abstract: A smaller conductor having an uninsulated portion and an insulated portion is positioned adjacent a larger conductor having an insulated portion and a conductive portion located within the insulated portion of the larger conductor. The two conductors are joined by a discontinuous metal band having respective ends extending across a top portion of the insulated portion of the larger conductor to make electrical contact with the uninsulated portion of the smaller conductor, then bending downward on one side of the conductor pair and then upward and through the insulated portion of the larger conductor such that a first of the ends of the metal band is positioned in contact with the conductive portion of the larger conductor; the metal band bending downward on the opposite side of the conductor pair and then upward and through the insulated portion of the larger conductor such that a second of the ends of the metal band is positioned in contact with the conductive portion of the larger conductor.

Abstract: Concatenatable lighting fixtures, each comprising a unitary cover member having a circuit board mounting platform integrally formed with suitable heat sinking and which mounts onto a cooperating base chassis. In one embodiment, the circuit board mounting platform extends farther from one end of the cover member than the other so as to facilitate placement of LEDs in a fashion which enhances lighting uniformity and minimizes dark spots. In one embodiment, first and second guide members may be positioned in respective opposite ends of adjacent fixtures, each guide member having a plurality of extending fingers with a flexible electrical conductor-carrying conduit disposed between the respective opposite ends and retained in position by the fingers.

Abstract: A seat light comprising a lamp shade component having a vertical back edge and an arcuate hood and a rectangular shroud component mountable within the lamp shade and encasing a circuit board carrying a plurality of LED's wherein the positioning of the LED's and shape of the hood cooperate to direct light down toward an adjacent aisleway, while concealing the shroud and LED's from normal view. A cooperating plaque holder adapted to be illuminated by the seat light is also disclosed.
