  • Patent number: 6644829
    Abstract: A rotatable light device having at least a pair of light bulbs. An elongated bulb housing retains the light bulbs. The bulb housing has an axis of rotation passing through a pair of opposed bushings, with at least one set of power supply wires extending from the bulbs through one of the bushings. A pivot bracket receives the bushings so that the bulb housing can rotate with respect to the bracket 360° about the axis. Alternate and replaceable fastening mechanisms are provided extending from the pivot bracket with the fastening mechanisms being detachable from the bracket.
