Publication number: 20070241259Abstract: A cabinet light apparatus has a light source that is controlled according to ambient light conditions in the room where the cabinet is mounted, such as a kitchen or bathroom. The cabinet has a door and a light source positioned on the door. A sensor detects light levels present on the door and activates the light source upon detection of a pre-determined low light level. Once activated, the apparatus is configured such that light is projected outwardly from the door. When the cabinet door is open, the light source also projects upwardly to illuminate portions of the interior of the cabinet. The cabinet light is deactivated after the ambient light level surpasses the pre-determined level.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 18, 2006Publication date: October 18, 2007Inventors: Robert Pandorf, James Stanley, Paul Briggs
