Abstract: The present invention pertains to paper product devices for holding toilet paper, particularly toilet roll spindles and holders that simultaneously provide illumination in an area. Embodiments described for the present invention use a toilet paper spindle housing, one or more springs designed to hold the electrical device in place, a power source, often battery powered, one or more lights within the housing to illuminate an area around and including a toilet, an ambient light sensor to detect an ambient light level, a toilet paper slide preventer and motion sensor guard, and one or more passive infrared sensors to detect movement in an area. The embodiment may illuminate an area for a specific time duration once motion or occupancy is detected. In one embodiment, the toilet roll spindle housing attaches vertically to a freestanding base and may be comprised of a power source, a photocell sensor, and infrared sensors.

Abstract: The present invention provides a visual experience in the bathtub setting. A bathtub overflow cover, which may be removably affixed to an inner wall of a bathtub, with a dedicated portion of a housing to secure a lighting device below a bathtub waterline, is described herein. The lighting device illuminates bathtub water and produces a bathtub glow. Embodiments described for the present invention comprise a bathtub overflow valve cover, a power source, a housing, which attaches to an inner wall of a bathtub, where the housing provides a watertight seal around a bathtub overflow valve preventing water from escaping a bathtub overflow port, and one or more LED lights. The embodiment may further comprise one or more RGB LED lights with color changing capability. Embodiments may further comprise one or more pushbuttons to adjust one or more integrated features.

Abstract: The present invention discloses tethered remote timer devices and applications for the control of residential lighting. More specifically, the invention pertains to a tethered remote timer comprising a pushbutton within the remote housing that allows the control of the state of connected lighting via an integrated timer and the brightness level of the lighting via a remotely accessible control. The remotely accessible control can also be used to override the timing device thereby changing the state of the connected lighting. The pushbutton provides the user the ability to increase or decrease light intensity within a programmable lighting schedule. In some embodiments, the tethered remote comprises: at least one preset countdown button which corresponds to a different preset or user set program, controls more than one load, communicates wirelessly, and turns on USB or USB-C output to control DC powered lighting.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to devices and applications for lamps to produce color mixing effects with a desired color distribution output within a translucent cylindrical housing. More specifically, the invention pertains to a device or devices that utilize a multidirectional light engine constructed in opposite directions with programmed light intensity with a spatial distribution of photons at single or varying wavelengths, which result in a large percentage of those photons entering the translucent cylinder producing a non-linear effect being emitted from the cylinder. Embodiments use two or more coaxial light engines with programmed light intensities producing a variety of non-linear lighting effects, which emit the majority of the light rays in opposing directions within a dedicated color mixing chamber. In some embodiments, the color mixing lighting device comprises two or more coaxial light engines which beam light in a 360 degree radial pattern forming an approximate 110 degree cone.
