Abstract: A switchable compact fluorescent lamp with an L.E.D. added to the center of the top of the compact fluorescent lamp plastic electronic encasement housing. The L.E.D. can be switched on with the fluorescent on or switched to be on by itself with the fluorescent off. The lamp can also be switched to a battery and or capacitor power backup for the L.E.D. when the power goes off.

Abstract: An L.E.D. lighting fixture is provided. The lighting fixture comprises at least one heat transfer mounting bar, at least one emitter plate secured to the mounting bar, an array of L.E.D. lights secured to each emitter plate, and a diffusion lens mounted over the L.E.D. array. A method for providing light is also provided.

Abstract: A lamp for maximizing an eye's ability to see under low light conditions is provided. The lamp has a glass illumination portion. The lamp further has a non-glass lamp base and/or a non-glass base cap with each of the glass illumination portion, the non-glass lamp base, and the non-glass base cap having an exterior wall. The lamp comprises after-glow phosphors wherein the after-glow phosphors are applied to at least one of the exterior walls of the lamp.

Abstract: A method for constructing a scotopic after-glow lamp for use in an electric lamp with the scotopic lamp having a lamp wall is provided. The method comprises combining scotopic enhanced phosphors with after-glow phosphors, and layering the combined phosphors on the lamp wall with at least a portion of the after-glow phosphors being against the lamp wall and at least a portion of the scotopic phosphors being exposed to the electric arc of the lamp.

Abstract: An L.E.D. lighting fixture is provided. The lighting fixture comprises at least one heat transfer mounting bar, at least one emitter plate secured to the mounting bar, and an array of L.E.D. lights secured to each emitter plate. A method for providing light is also provided.

Abstract: A sign for indicating an egress from a room is provided. The sign comprises a non-transparent substrate having a front planar surface and an afterglow photo-luminescent material on the front planar surface. At least one light source adjacent the substrate shines on the front planar surface of the substrate and the photo-luminescent material for charging the photo-luminescent material wherein the light source is a light emitting diode (L.E.D.) emitter and wherein the L.E.D. emitters emit light from the front or side to charge the afterglow photo-luminescent material.

Abstract: A light therapy device for alleviating medical disorders is provided. The light therapy device comprises a housing having a pair of first side walls, a pair of second side walls, a pair of side walls, and a bottom wall with the second side walls being between the first side walls and the bottom wall, the first side walls being substantially perpendicular to the bottom wall, and the side walls being substantially perpendicular to the first side walls and the bottom wall. A light bulb is positioned within the housing. An angled light reflective panel is positioned between the bottom wall of the housing and the light bulb wherein the light reflective panel reflects light and heat in a general direction toward the first side walls, the second side walls, and opposite the bottom wall thereby removing light and heat from behind the light bulb.

Abstract: An emergency lamp for use in an area during ambient low light conditions is provided. The emergency lamp comprises a hand-held housing having a first end and a second end with at least one light emitting source within the housing. A power mechanism mounted within the housing illuminates the light emitting source. An activation mechanism activates the power mechanism only during low light conditions.

Abstract: A balanced blue spectrum therapy lighting fixture is provided. The lighting fixture comprises a light source and a mixture of blue light and white light within the light source having a range between approximately 90% 420–490 nm blue light and approximately 10% white light to approximately 10% 420–490 nm blue light and approximately 90% white light.

Abstract: A method for constructing a scotopic after-glow lamp for use in an electric lamp with the scotopic lamp having a lamp wall is provided. The method comprises combining scotopic enhanced phosphors with after-glow phosphors, and layering the combined phosphors on the lamp wall with at least a portion of the after-glow phosphors being against the lamp wall and at least a portion of the scotopic phosphors being exposed to the electric arc of the lamp.

Abstract: A scotopic after-glow lamp for maximizing an eye's ability to see under low light conditions is provided. The scotopic after-glow lamp comprises a non-uniform scotopic phosphor blend of scotopic enhanced phosphors and after-glow phosphors. A method for constructing a scotopic after-glow lamp for use in an electric lamp is also provided. The method comprises combining scotopic enhanced phosphors with after-glow phosphors and layering the combined phosphors on the lamp wall with at least a portion of the after-glow phosphors being against the lamp wall and at least a portion of the scotopic phosphors being exposed to the electric arc of the lamp. Protective layers, such as aluminum oxide powder, can be added in conjunction with the coating process to reduce the flaking and/or separation of the phosphors from the glass wall of the lamp and each other and enhance and lengthen the useful light production of the lamp as it ages.

Abstract: A photo-luminescent marking system is provided. The system comprises a device capable of receiving ink and a barcode print on the device. The barcode print is constructed from photo-luminescent ink readable in diminished lighting situations with the barcode print scannable and decodable by a bar code scanner. A barcode system is also provided. The barcode system comprises a device, a photo luminescent material applied to the device, and barcode print applied to the device over the photo luminescent material. In addition, a method for reading a barcode in diminished lighting conditions is provided.
