Abstract: A room clearance indication light may feature opposed rocker switches which interact with each other to prevent the accidental actuation of the primary, switch rocker unless the secondary, interlock rocker is simultaneously depressed. The interlock rocker also controls the attachment gate, allowing the indication light to be efficiently positioned and removed from worn or other stowage equipment. The opposed position of the rockers allows simultaneous actuation with a simple grab by the hands in preparation for throwing into a cleared room while the ability to actuate the interlock rocker without simultaneously actuating the switch rocker allows for individualized placement of the indicator lights prior to use. Switch structures may be as simple as a compression switch, which is actuated from pressure from the switch rocker, or may utilize a rotary selection switch advanced by actuation of the switch rocker.

Abstract: A flashlight including a hollow translucent member with one or more end caps is disclosed. Each end cap may include an LED, LED carrier, LED carrier socket, battery, switch, electrical coupling between the battery and switch. Each end cap may be reversible or have a plurality of LED carrier sockets facilitating configuration as a flashlight or lamp. The flashlight lamp operates in a flashlight mode when configured with one or more LEDs directing light away from the flashlight lamp. The flashlight lamp operates as a lamp when configured to emit light from within the hollow translucent member. The flashlight lamp may be configured to operate as both a flashlight and a lamp. The flashlight lamp may be watertight.
