The invention relates to an electric charging device, to a charging system, to a method for charging a battery of a vehicle, and to an electric connection device of a vehicle for charging a battery of the vehicle. The electric charging device comprises the following: a lifting device (11) to which a charging head (12) is coupled, wherein the charging head (12) has a first plurality of first electric contacts (14) on a first surface (13) of the charging head (12), at least some of said contacts being connectable to an energy source in order to charge the battery; and an actuator (16) by means of which the lifting device (11) can be actuated such that the charging head (12) can be at least partly moved in a first direction (R1) that is substantially perpendicular to the first surface (13). The lifting device (11) is further designed such that the charging head (12) can be moved in a second direction (R2) along a stop surface (U, P) by continuing to actuate the lifting device (11) by means of the actuator (16) upon striking the stop surface (U, P) in the first direction (R1).

A solid state lighting apparatus can include an electrical connector that is configured to couple to a standardized electrical fixture, where the electrical connector provides a recess therein. A cover can be coupled to the electrical connector to cover the recess and a solid state lighting driver circuit can be located beneath the cover. A solid state lighting housing, that is separate from the electrical connector and the cover, can be configured to house a solid state light emitting device and at least one flexible wire can electrically couple the solid state lighting driver circuit to the solid state light emitting device.

According to some embodiments, a system and method provide a lighting fixture including at least one socket, wherein each socket is operative to receive an auxiliary device; and a fixture authentication module operative to authenticate each received auxiliary device. Numerous other aspects are provided.

The present invention discloses a color changing light and related light chain thereof. The color changing light comprises: connecting line group; a lampholder disposed on the connecting line group; a lighting module connected to the connecting line group; a bulb installed on the lampholder; the connecting line group comprises live wire, neutral wire and signal wire, the neutral wire extends to one end of the lampholder and connects to the lampholder, the live wire and the signal line respectively connect to two springs on the bottom of the lampholder; the lighting module is disposed separately with respect to the lampholder, the lighting module comprises a base matching the screw of the lampholder, a lighting object disposed inside the base, wherein the neutral wire of the lighting object is disposed on the base, the live wire and the signal wire extend outward with respect to the bottom of the base.

Disclosed herein is a use-limiting connector for limiting use of an electrical tool. The use-limiting connector includes an electrical circuit, a plunger, movable between a first position and a second position, and a biasing member, configured to urge the plunger into the first position and configured to incrementally uncoil into respective torsional states as the plunger moves between the first position and the second position. With the plunger in the first position and the biasing member in a first one of the torsional states, the biasing member closes the electrical circuit. As the plunger moves from the first position to the second position, the plunger moves the biasing member to open the electrical circuit.
