  • Publication number: 20110089390
    Abstract: Provided is a post assembly configured for use with a lighted handrail, wherein the post assembly includes a post body sized to house a driver or other operational components associated with the lighting components disposed within the lighted handrail. In this regard, such components may be disposed in relatively close proximity to the lighted handrail, making the overall assembly safer, more energy efficient. Furthermore, by disposing the components within the post body, such components may be more easily accessed for routine maintenance and repair.
