  • Publication number: 20070247830
    Abstract: A surface supported lighting includes a chemiluminescent element and a reusable support element. The support element is configured for insertion into the surface in a desired orientation and includes a surface insertion spike and a stick receiving portion. The chemiluminescent element and the support element releasably engage one another to support the chemiluminescent element in the desired orientation when the support element is inserted into the surface. The chemiluminescent element can be disengaged from the support element for replacing the chemiluminescent element.

  • Publication number: 20070081324
    Abstract: An illuminated lanyard includes a plurality of light emitting diodes, a plurality of conductors having the light emitting diodes mounted to the conductors spaced from one another along the length of the conductors. The light emitting diodes and the conductors define an LED assembly. A power source is operably connected to the LED assembly and a switch operably connects the power source to the LED assembly. A housing houses the power source and the switch. A light transmissive sheath is configured having the LED assembly fitted, at least in part, in the sheath. A translucent sleeve is positioned over the sheath and encloses the LED assembly. The sheath and sleeve are mounted to the housing. The light emitting diodes are illuminated by actuation of the switch, and light from the light emitting diodes is transmitted by the diodes and is visible through the sheath and through the translucent sleeve. The lanyard can be configured for securing a pair of glasses thereto.

  • Publication number: 20060262531
    Abstract: An illuminated novelty device includes a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs). An elongated light bar can be mounted to each of the LEDs. The light bars have a light receiving end and a light emitting end and are mounted to respective LEDs at the light receiving end. The light bars are formed from a light transmissive material. Conductors extend between and connect the LEDs. The LEDs are spaced from one another along the length of the conductors. The LEDs, the elongated light bars and the conductors define an LED assembly. A power source is operably connected to the LED assembly and a switch is operably connected between the power source and the LED assembly. The power source and switch are maintained in a housing. A light transmissive sheath has the LED assembly fitted, at least in part, within it. The sheath has a first end mounted to the housing and a second free end.
