A light assembly has a light-module portion and an attached tail portion. The tail is flexible, elongate, and self-supporting such that the tail may be configured to be repeatably bent into various shapes, such as, but not limited to, spirals. By bending the tail, the tail may be removably attached to various articles, such as, but not limited to, various hand-held tools and/or implements. Thus, any such articles without preexisting lights may be simply modified to include a light source. The tail may be at least mostly covered in a soft and comfortable protective sheathing. The entire light assembly may be readily portable (mobile) with the light-module being battery powered and with the light assembly having an overall length often being from twenty-four (24) inches to eight (8) inches. The light assembly may be small, compact, and lightweight.

A grip light for use with a tattoo machine having an exterior grip surface extending from an upper grip portion downward toward an opposite working end and surrounding a channel extending through the upper portion to the working end, light transmissive material running through the grip from a light receiving surface to a bottom surface of the working end, and a light pipe inlet for receiving light from a light pipe into the light receiving surface and thereby permitting light from the light pipe to be projected out from working end of the grip light to illuminate an area therebelow.

A compact motion-activated light with flexible arm that enables a user to illuminate remote areas that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to illuminate. The device contains its own power source so that it does not need to be connected to an electrical outlet, enabling the user to place the device in areas where there are not electrical outlets or even no wired electricity such as basements, attics or garages.

The present document describes a lighting device comprising: a structure comprising a conformable elongated member being adaptable to a shape of an object for securing the lighting device to the object; a light source attached to the structure thereby defining a connection between the light source and the structure; a power source for providing electrical power to the light source; and a skin overmolded onto the structure, the power source, the connection and part of the light source near the connection. There is also described a method for providing lighting in a confined space where a hand-operated tool is used.

A portable light may comprise a light housing having a USB connector tray integrally molded therewith; a light source; a switch for selectively actuating the light source; and a circuit board in the light housing providing electrical contacts of a USB connector, whereby the connector tray and the electrical contacts cooperate to define a USB connector. The light source may operate in a mode wherein it provides illumination light and in a different mode wherein it provides an indication of charging.

A foldable easel with a lighting system includes a foldable frame, a left light fixture, and a right light fixture. The foldable frame includes a rear central rail, a right front rail, a left front rail, a plate, and a cross brace assembly. Three rails are hingedly connected to each other with the plate and the cross brace assembly that is centrally positioned to the foldable frame. The plate and the cross brace assembly foldably secure the rear central rail, the left front rail, and the right front rail. The left and right light fixtures are detachably mounted to the foldable frame. The left and right light fixtures are powered through a power supply system and selectively controlled by a user to direct illumination towards a painting or portrait that is held within the foldable frame.
