Abstract: A flashlight (10) including: a housing (12) with a light source (104), a power source (142), and an aperture (126) through the housing (12) that is closed by a resilient cover (112). The resilient cover (112) extends over a switch assembly (18) and provides a waterproof seal for the housing (12). An indicator means (146), when illuminated, is visible through the resilient cover (112). A waterproof flashlight (10) having an electric contact (154) extending through a contact aperture (38) formed in the housing (12) with resilient sealing means (164) between to establish a water tight seal. A securement means (158) to place the resilient means (164) under compression. When not in use, the flashlight (10) may be stowed on a base (40) for recharging through the electrical contact (154).

Abstract: A lighting device (10) which is adapted to be converted between a flashlight mode and an area light mode includes a housing (14) to receive a power supply (28), a light source (46) associated with the housing (14) and a tubular lens (34) surrounding the light source (46), a reflector (52) mounted to said device (10) so as to slide relative to the tubular lens (34), the reflector (52) including an aperture (68) through which the light source (46) can pass, the aperture (68) having a shutter (70) associated therewith whereby the shutter (70) closes the aperture (68) when the reflector (52) is in a position which allows the device to be used in the area light mode.

Abstract: The present invention provides a lighting device having a light housing including a light source being rotatably connected by a rotatable connection means to a lighting device body, said body having said rotatable connection means positioned so as to allow said light housing to lay adjacent said body and to define therebetween a narrow space which is accessible in a base to top direction. The present invention also provides a light housing for a lighting device, said light housing including a light source holder at one end thereof, said light housing also including means to receive a mounting member at one end of said light housing opposite to said light source holder, said light housing being characterised by said light source holder allowing limited pivotal movement of said light source when said light source is mounted in said light source holder, said limited pivotal movement being in the range of 5° to 30°.

Abstract: 1. A lighting device (2) having a light housing (6) including a light source (42, 44), said light housing rotatably connected to a body, said body having a rotatable connection means (22) to allow the light housing to be adjacent said body to define a narrow space (90) accessible in a base to top direction. 2. A lighting device (2) having a light source (42, 44), a tubular lens (40, 50) surrounding said light source, a reflector (56) cooperating with an end of said tubular lens opposite to said light source. 3. A light housing (6) or a method of assembling a light housing (6), said light housing having a first side and a second side, a first side having a mounting spigot (52, 54), a second side having an aperture (62, 63), a tubular lens (48, 50) can pass through the aperture so that one end of the tubular lens is received in the mounting spigot, said aperture and said mounting spigot being in alignment.
