Abstract: Provide is an improved, lower cost, illuminated carrier which is more economical to transport and warehouse. An illuminated carrier for articles, said carrier having a container a attachment for said container, said attachment having illuminating means mounted thereon; and a handle means.

Abstract: An illuminating handle/strap for lifting, pulling, carrying, opening, holding a container and the like is presented. The light source is the handle/strap. Illumination can occur in different ways by aiming the light emitting means. Directions can be: generally, as in all directions; partially, such as down into a container, at what it is attached to, or towards the person using it; specifically, such as at signage on or adjacent to what it is attached to; or in a combination of several directions at once. Different or combinations of light emitting means can be used. The handle can be rigid or flexible. This is a simple cost effective way to increase visibility and safety.

Abstract: An electrically powered illuminating handle/strap for lifting, pulling, carrying, opening, holding or whatever. The light source is the handle/strap. Illumination can occur in different ways by aiming the light emitting means. Directions can be: generally, as in all directions; partially, such as drown into a container, at what it is attached to, or towards the person using it; specifically, such as at signage or a keyhole on or adjacent to what it is attached to; or in a combination of several directions at once. Different or combinations of light emitting means can be used. The handle can be rigid or flexible. This is a simple cost effective way to increase visibility and safety.

Abstract: An illuminated plastic treat carrier, such as a Jack-o-lantern, having an insert with a handle activated switch that activates the lights when the carrier is lifted by the handle. The insert is mounted inside the carrier and has one or more incandescent lamps or light emitting diodes in series or parallel circuit with a dry cell battery and a switch mechanism formed at one end of the handle. Additionally, a bimetallic or solid state flashing unit may be incorporated into the light circuit.
