  • Publication number: 20080041711
    Abstract: A toilet illumination system has a pad that is formed in the shape of a mat for placement on the floor in the near proximity of the toilet. The pad includes an activation mechanism for activating and de-activating an illumination unit. When pressure is applied to the pad, such as a person stepping on the pad, the activation mechanism in the pad activates the illumination unit to illuminate the toilet. When pressure is released, the process is reversed, and the illumination unit turns off the illumination unit. Alternatively, pressure may be placed on a certain switch portion of the pad, such as a marked switch on the pad, to activate or deactivate the illumination unit.
