Abstract: LED controller devices (e.g., color changing modules) that may be connected to an LED fixture (e.g., an LED light strip or series of LED light strips) having multicolored LED lights or LED's which otherwise vary in intensity, color, brightness, etc. In some embodiments, the LED light strips may incorporate red/green/blue (RGB) LEDs or white/warm white/amber (WWA) LEDs. This LED controller device operates to vary the colors emitted by the LED lights in accordance with desired programs, colors, tones, light shows, etc. The controller devices of this invention may be used in a stand alone LED lighting fixture of part of a network, such as a network that uses a form of RS-485 architecture known as a “Digital Multiplexed Interface” (DMX) as frequently used for control of lighting.

Abstract: A surface-mounted lighting system and method wherein a lamp (e.g., an LED) is mounted within a surface (e.g., a wall, the wall of a pool or spa, a panel, etc.) such that it casts light to one side of the surface. A lighting system of the present invention comprises a) a lens cap/light emitting diode/first connector subassembly and b) a second connector/wire subassembly. A first connector located on the lens cap/light emitting diode/first connector subassembly is connectable to the second connector located on the second connector/wire subassembly such that power may be delivered through the second connector/wire subassembly to the lamp. Thereafter, when it is desired to remove or change the lamp, the first connector is disconnected from the second connector and the entire Lens cap/LED/first connector subassembly may be removed and replaced.
