Pole light and base system with transformation of watercraft battery voltage
11254401 · 2022-02-22 · ·

A pole light and base system that includes a pole light base configured to be secured to a gunwale of a watercraft. In practice, the pole light base might include a pole light tube and a female Universal Serial Bus connector. The pole light tube may have electrical contacts configured to engage respective electrical contacting portions of an all around light pole if an all around light pole is inserted into the pole light tube. In some cases, the system might include the all around light pole and light. The electrical contacts of the tube might include a positive contact electrically coupled to a first wire and a negative contact electrically coupled to a second wire. The first and second wire may be designed to connect directly to a 12 Volt watercraft battery. They may also connect to a boat fuse box that is connected to a battery. Similarly, the female USB connector can be electrically connected to a printed circuit board that includes transforming components capable of transforming 12 Volt power from a watercraft battery into a lower voltage, such as 5 volt, that is made available via the female USB-A connector.

Submersible illuminating apparatus
11666045 · 2023-06-06 ·

The submersible light apparatus is a device that can provide a wireless and/or corded portable battery-operated underwater light that can provide light in multiple directions as well as attract marine life simultaneously. To that end, the device includes a center structure that houses associated electric circuitry that can power all the light sources of the device. Further, the device includes a chum (fish feed) housing, that is mounted around the center housing, and can disperse fish feed when submersed in water. The device may further include a retrieving line and a bridle that enables a user to pull the light from under water or from farther distances. Furthermore, the device includes a charging port and a switch that enables to turn the lights on/off or dim the lights. Additionally, the device includes a spherical transparent cover that provides a convenient and aesthetically pleasing protective covering.
