Abstract: A charging system for use in charging a battery includes an elongate handle with a working length sufficient to reach a battery that is out of reach of a user. The charging system includes a charging apparatus coupled to the elongate handle. A head member is configured to mechanically engage with and electrically connect to a battery unit and also mechanically disengage and electrically disconnect from the battery unit by manually grasping and applying mechanical force to the elongate handle. The charging system also includes a power supply configured to provide electrical power to the charging apparatus. The charging system can be used to recharge the battery of a wall or ceiling mounted device (e.g., a battery powered lighting device) that is out of reach of the user without having to remove the device or use a ladder to reach the device.

Abstract: A wall or ceiling mountable lighting device comprises a self-contained single or multiple LED light source for emitting warm yellow-white light corresponding to halogen or incandescent light and a control circuit controlled by a remote control unit to energize and deenergize the light source and control light intensity. A rechargeable battery power source mounted on the lighting device is connectable to the apparatus for charging the battery without removing the battery from the device. The apparatus includes an elongated probe assembly releasably connectable to the lighting device to perform the recharging process. The lighting device is particularly adapted for ease of placement of a light source for decorative purposes and/or illuminating artifacts in locations which would require substantial structural modifications to install conventional lighting.

Abstract: The present invention teaches a method to alter browser programming responses by the substitution of certain client-server communications commands allowing certain browser requests to be redirected to alternate servers for further interpretation and subsequent server responses. The purpose of this method is injection of custom content into browser-based device displays without disruption of the original page content. This method accomplishes the task without requiring additional plug-in applications, browser or client device code modifications. The invention teaches the use of a local proxy server or embedded device but also claims the use of remote network proxy servers to transparently alter the command request sequence of the client browser in order to request alternate information other than that normally requested by the browser for interpretation and display.
