Abstract: A lighting system includes a light assembly and a remote control device. The light assembly includes a plurality of lights, such as LEDS, a controller for connection to a power source and which controls the lights, and a wireless transceiver for communication with the remote control device. Additionally, the remote control device is configured to detect the light assembly, to transmit a pairing signal to the light assembly, which prompts the light assembly to generate a non-numerical code, and to pair the light assembly with the remote control device in response to input from a user at the remote control device prompted by the non-numerical code.

Abstract: A flexible light assembly includes a flexible elongated enclosure and a flexible light circuit board, which includes a plurality of light sources mounted thereto. The flexible elongated body includes a channel with a bottom surface and at least one support for supporting the flexible light circuit board above the bottom surface wherein when the flexible light circuit board is inserted into the flexible elongated enclosure there is a space between bottom side of the circuit board and the bottom surface of the channel to allow air flow there between.

Abstract: A snap-on light socket for a flexible light strip assembly includes a plurality of sockets which are removably and randomly fixed to a standard insulated wire (conductor). The socket is, in affect, comprised of a primary chamber into which is inserted a pair of cooperating contacts which serve to grip a conventional wedge base lamp and which have sharply pointed portions extending therefrom which pierce the insulation of the wire to effect the electrical connection. A lower tunnel-like channel is formed to accept and to grip the insulated wire and includes slotted means permitting the said sharply pointed portions of the contacts to extend partially into said channels to be in position to pierce the insulation when the socket is affixed to the insulated wire.

Abstract: A channel and locking end tip for vinyl tube strip lighting. The tip includes a locking nib which is positioned within a channel opening for preventing the tip from shifting relative to the channel. To remove the tip, its outer end is pivoted upwardly such that the locking nib is spaced slightly above the channel bottom wall. A screw hole is provided through the tip body and channel for mounting. The vinyl tube light overlies the flange when carried by the channel. The mounting screw is external of the lighting bed such that the strip light may be fully assembled by the manufacturer and installed by the user with minimum effort.

Abstract: A series of electric lamps spaced along the interior of a flexible vinyl tube, such lamps being connected in electric parallel with each other by a pair of insulated conductors that exit from the tube through an opening adjacent one end of the tube. A thermoplastic sealant having a vinyl content is applied by a special procedure into each of the ends of the tube to seal closed such ends of the tube as well as the point of egress of the conductors. The tube is disposed in a channel-like mounting bracket having a restricted entrance through which the tube is viewable. A special procedure is provided for connecting uninsulated leads of the lamps to insulated parallel conductors such that no additional insulation is required.
