  • Patent number: 11279276
    Abstract: A boat towing auxiliary light is provided. The device includes an elongated shaft having an upper end opposite a lower end. A light assembly is affixed to the upper end of the elongated shaft. A pair of notches are disposed within the lower end of the elongated shaft. A brace removably securable within the pair of notches. A power source is disposed within the elongated shaft, wherein the power source is operably connected to the light assembly. A control is disposed on the elongated shaft, wherein the control selectively toggles the light assembly between an activated state and a deactivated state. In some embodiments, a wireless controller is disposed within the elongated shaft and operably connects the light assembly with a remote electronic device, wherein the remote electronic device selectively toggles the light assembly between an activated state and a deactivated state.

  • Patent number: 6653016
    Abstract: An electrochemical cell having a cell can that includes an interior surface, a current collector, a solid cathode contained in the can and in conductive contact therewith, an organic or solid polymer electrolyte comprising lithium salt solutes and aprotic organic solvents has improved storage properties when a coating comprising carbon powder is diposed on the current collector surface and on the adjacent interior surface of the cell can. Further, the cell has advantageous enhanced discharge properties over an expanded temperature range when the cathode additionally comprises a fluoropolymer resin binder.
