  • Patent number: 11076460
    Abstract: A lighting device is disclosed with control logic to provide a user with the option of powering on in a high power mode and cycling through to a low power mode or starting first in a lower power mode and cycling up to a higher power mode. In another aspect, the lighting device has a secondary light source that functions as a status indicator in a first mode and as a source of illumination in a second mode, wherein the power output of the first mode is less than the second mode.

  • Publication number: 20190387732
    Abstract: A handheld lighting apparatus is disclosed having a top housing coupled to a first light source and an electrical grid configured to distribute a quantity of electricity to an object that contacts adjacent portions of the grid. The top housing is slidably mounted to a bottom housing having a cavity therein, the cavity being configured to receive the electrical grid assembly therein. The first light source emits light ranging from about 400 nm to about 720 nm in a first mode and light ranging from about 315 nm to about 400 nm in a second mode. A second light source is disposed about the bottom housing configured to propagate light in a direction that is parallel to a longitudinal direction of the lighting apparatus.
