A light fixture can be electrically connected to a module that can add certain functionality and/or alter the way the light fixture is controlled. A module base includes a module receiver configured to receive one of a plurality of modules. At least the module base is connected to input power. When a first module is coupled to the module base, the combination of the light fixture and module has a first range of functionality dictated at least in part by the functionality of the first module. When the first module is removed and replaced with a second module, the combination of the light fixture and the module has a second range of functionality dictated at least in part by the functionality of the second module.

A device mounting apparatus that allows a device such as a smoke detector or carbon dioxide (CO.sub.2) detector, as well as other device including an alarm, a camera or a light to be selectively positioning at a location on a surface such as a wall. The apparatus comprises a preferably rectangular, hollow rod with rounded corners, and having a first end, second end, and outer surfaces. A device securing bracket that facilitates the attachment of a device to the rod includes a center section with a rod opening, a first side member and second side member, with each member having an angled section and at least one bore. An apparatus to surface securing bracket allows the apparatus to be attached to a surface such as a wall and has a center section with an outward extending first and second side wall, each side wall having a semi-circular segment, with the rod inserted through the space created when the two segments face each other. The apparatus to surface securing bracket also has a rear section with at least one bore through which a screw or other attachment means is inserted. From exiting the bore, the screw enters into the surface/wall, thereby attaching the apparatus to the surface. To maintain the device attached to the device securing bracket, a device mounting pan is utilized. The pan has a rear panel with at least one bore, a center opening for a power wire and a side wall extending outward from the rear panel's perimeter.

A luminaire is configured to be removably coupled to a fixture, the fixture being removably coupled to a splice box, the luminaire including a housing including a first end and a second end, the first end including a coupling mechanism configured to couple to the fixture; a printed circuit board coupled adjacent the second end; at least one LED physically and electrically coupled to the printed circuit board; a lens couple to the housing over the printed circuit board; an adapter in electrical communication with the printed circuit board, the adapter configured to electrically and physically couple to a socket of the fixture.

A light fixture comprising a housing with a first end and a second end opposite the first end is installed by removing a cap removably coupled with the second end of the housing and mounting the housing to a surface such that the housing is adjacent the surface. Cavities formed by walls of first and second flanges coupled with the housing at the second end are configured to receive fasteners to secure the housing to a surface. Light from a light source coupled with the housing is configured to be emitted from the housing at the first end of the housing. The light fixture is hung from a cable by passing a cord through an opening formed by walls of the cap and around the cable while the cap is removably coupled with the housing.

A solar coach light configured to be mounted to a wall comprises a bracket to be mounted to the wall and a light fixture. The bracket comprises a mounting plate and an arm extending therefrom. The light fixture comprises a plurality of top faces and a bottom face defining together an enclosure; a solar panel mounted to one of the top faces; a battery cell housed by the enclosure; a socket mounted to the bottom face to plug a light bulb therein; and a removable shade assembly mounted to the bottom face comprising a plurality of removable shades. The removable shade assembly defines a space surrounding the bottom face providing protection from the environment. The solar coach light comprises a hanging assembly connecting the light fixture to the arm distant from the mounting plate.

A lighting system for mounting adjacent a junction of a wall and a ceiling of a room comprises: a plurality of lighting fixtures mountable end-to-end along the wall and comprising plurality of mounting extrusions. A transition presents a concave transition facing into the interior of the room and is formed by a plurality of extrusions interfitting with the mounting extrusions.

A lighting device includes a housing and a light emitter coupled to the housing. A mounting plate is coupled to the housing and includes a front surface facing the housing and a rear surface opposite the front surface. The rear surface includes a snap-fit mounting feature and a rear connector portion. A first connector is coupled to the rear connector portion and operatively coupled to the light emitter.
