Publication number: 20190092225Abstract: A light assembly is provided for attachment to a surface of a vehicle with a power source. The light assembly comprises a light head including a light, a light head terminal in electrical communication with the light, and a first mounting structure. The light assembly further comprises a first base configured to be coupled to the surface of the vehicle. The first base includes a second mounting structure configured to mate with the first mounting structure such that the light head can be removably secured on the first base. The first base also includes a conductor configured to couple to the power source of the vehicle. The first base also includes a first base terminal in electrical communication with the conductor and configured to mate with the light head terminal to provide power to the light when the light head is secured on the first base. The light assembly further comprises a second base configured to be coupled to the surface of the vehicle. The second base is different than the first base.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2018Publication date: March 28, 2019Inventors: Joshua Schermerhorn, David Proeber, Josh Adams, Duane W. Wenzel
