Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a decorative lantern having a portable lantern and cradle is set forth. Both the portable lantern and the cradle may include a light source. The mounted cradle includes a power source capable of recharging and/or powering the portable lantern when docked. The light source of the cradle may be illuminable when the portable lantern is removed from the cradle.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a rotatable light fixture secured to a junction box via a mounting base. The electrical and/or mechanical connection between the light fixture housing and the mounting base may maintain the electrical coupling during rotation. The light fixture housing may be rotationally secured in a variety of rotational orientations relative to the mounting base.

Abstract: An outdoor security light is provided which incorporates features of decorative luminaire illumination while also integrating security light functionality. Such features may include not only standard illumination, but also security light functionality such an ambient sensors, motion detection, while also providing an integrated luminaire having wall wash capabilities.

Abstract: A security light having a first and a second light panel is set forth. The light panels includes a plurality of light scattering structures which are V-shaped grooves extending from the top surface to the bottom surface along the height of each of the light panels. The light scattering structures may modify in density as the distance from the light source increases in order to improve the light output performance of the panes.

Abstract: The described embodiments relate to systems, methods, and apparatuses for providing a lighting system that includes backup light emitting diodes (LEDs) that are incorporated into a primary array of LEDs of the lighting system. The backup LEDs can be illuminated when a utility power source for the lighting system becomes unavailable. The backup LEDs can operate from a backup power supply, which can be charged from the utility power source, when the utility power source is available. Furthermore, charging of the backup power supply can be temperature dependent, in order that the backup power supply and/or the charging circuit can be protected from damage caused by operating such components out of an operating specification.

Abstract: The described embodiments relate to systems, methods, and apparatuses for establishing a network of sensor-responsive lighting units using an interface of each lighting unit. The interface of each lighting unit can include a channel selector switch for selecting a channel to which each lighting unit will be connected. In this way, the creation of a network can be created by placing the lighting units proximate to each other and selecting the same channel at the interface at each lighting unit. The lighting units can include sensors for detecting events occurring at each lighting unit, and information related to the detected events can be shared among other lighting units in the network. Each lighting unit can operate in different operating modes such as a testing mode for testing communications channels and a manual mode for allowing a lighting unit to operate independently of the information shared over the network.

Abstract: An integrated lighting and notification system includes a light fixture connected to an electrical power supply, a camera, a control unit, and a trigger device. The electrical power supply provides electrical power to the light source unit and the camera. The control unit transmits a signal via a network in response to receiving a signal transmitted by the trigger device.

Abstract: An electrical fixture includes an electrical fixture housing having a mounting surface, an electrical connector disposed on the mounting surface, and an electrical fixture support. A corresponding cover plate or mounting strap includes an electrical connector configured to electrically connect to hot and neutral lines from a junction box and the corresponding electrical connector disposed on the mounting surface of the electrical fixture. An electrical fixture ground connection separate from the fixture electrical connector electrically connects to an electrical ground from the junction box.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for a security light having a remote photovoltaic module is set forth. The security light includes a primary rechargeable battery connected to the remote photovoltaic module while also having a backup battery system to be utilized when the rechargeable batteries condition require recharge. The security lighting unit functions as a security light to provide variable wide area illumination based upon environmental and battery conditions and also which power supply is optionally connected to the load, the load being the illumination sources and the various supportive electronics. The system further includes a controller which can not only operationally selects either the rechargeable batteries or backup batteries but also can monitor battery condition to preserve battery life. In operation, the security light may include a variable battery power supply for ease of installation.
