Abstract: A multi-mode electromagnetic radiation emitting device comprising at least one source of electromagnetic radiation which emits radiation according to predefined or programmable user selectable instruction sets is disclosed. Reversal of the polarity of the device's power supply allows for enhanced features to be accessed including multiple instruction sets per switch setting, reprogramming mode, infra-red (covert) mode, night mode and water activation mode. A switch mechanism for providing selectable switched circuit connections is also disclosed as well as a power supply for supplying DC power to an electronic circuit comprising at least one microcontroller or microprocessor.

Abstract: A light support comprising a base plate and a light-carrying plate comprising a proximal end mounted to the base plate and being adapted for mounting a light thereon. The base plate comprises an anchoring element, an anti-tipping assembly and a concave support-mounting face. The anchoring element is adapted to be anchored within a penetrable material. The support mounting face co-acts with a surface on which the light support is mounted to. The light support further comprises an auxiliary element that comprises an auxiliary mounting element or an auxiliary anchoring element that can be moveable or stationary.

Abstract: A mounting support for mounting an object, such as a light, flashlight or the like, to a mounting surface is disclosed. The support comprises a body to which may be coupled the object, at least two legs projecting from the body, the legs comprising opposed divergently arcuate inner surfaces each providing at least one abutment point for abutting the legs upon the mounting surface, and a fastener for maintaining the abutment. The object or light may be integrally, fixedly, pivotally or otherwise coupled to the body.

Abstract: There is disclosed a flotation device such as a life vest or inflatable raft for keeping a user afloat when in water, the flotation device comprising a light source attached to the flotation device, a water activated switch, wherein the light source is illuminated when the water activated switch is submersed in the water, and a control panel mounted to an outer surface of the flotation device and comprised of at least one user activated switch, wherein the light source is extinguished when the user activated switch is depressed, the control panel having instructions printed thereon.

Abstract: A portable light is disclosed comprising at least one light emitting diode, a power source, a switch operable for closing an electronic circuit between the power source and the light emitting diode, wherein when the electronic circuit is closed the at least one diode emits light generally about a first axis, and a body adapted to receive the light emitting diode, the battery and the switch, the body comprising a loop portion towards one end thereof defining a loop aperture having an axis which is substantially parallel to the first axis.

Abstract: A signalling device comprising an emission module operative on the application of battery power from a battery pack for the emission of a signal from at least one electromagnetic radiation emitting element, a battery compartment and a cap for retaining said battery pack in said battery compartment. The cap comprises at least one sensor and a switch for controlling the application of battery power. The switch is actuated when the at least one sensor detects a change in the environment in the vicinity of the device. Alternatively, the switch can be actuated remotely through a wireless interface or via a trip wire.
