A device for alerting approaching vehicles of a slow-moving vehicle is provided. The device includes a light bar having one or more illumination units positioned on a front face thereof, a sensing unit, and means for activating the one or more illumination units on the light bar. The light bar further includes a mounting mechanism on a rear face thereof for removably mounting the light bar on a vehicle. The sensing unit senses the location and speed of the vehicle and for compares the speed of the vehicle to a posted speed limit for a roadway upon which the vehicle is traveling. The activating means serve to activate the one or more illumination units when the sensing unit determines that the speed of the vehicle is less than a pre-determined value below the posted speed limit for the roadway.

A light emitting apparatus comprising a plurality of pixels with different light emitting colors, each of the plurality of pixels includes a light-emitting element configured to emit light with one of at least three different light emitting colors, a driving transistor configured to supply a current to the light-emitting element in accordance with a voltage supplied to a gate, a write transistor configured to supply a signal voltage from a signal line to the gate of the driving transistor, and a capacitance at a connection portion between the driving transistor and the write transistor, wherein the capacitance is different for each light emitting color, and is larger in a pixel of a light emitting color in which a peak current flowing through the light-emitting element is larger.

A vehicle light assembly comprising: a flexible lighting strip comprising a multitude of light-emitting diodes, wherein the flexible lighting strip is arranged to be bent around at least two, more preferred three linear independent axes; a light guiding structure comprising a light receiving surface and a primary light emission surface, wherein the light receiving surface receives light emitted by the flexible lighting strip, wherein the primary light emission surface emits at least a part of the light received via the light receiving surface, and wherein the light receiving surface is arranged to define a bending of the flexible lighting strip; a coupling structure that is arranged to mechanically couple the flexible lighting strip to the light receiving surface in accordance with the bending defined by the light receiving surface. The invention further describes a vehicle rear light or vehicle front light comprising the vehicle light assembly.

A trailer brake system may include a trailer brake controller comprising a manual braking control, and a trailer light controller; where the trailer brake controller comprises a brake on/off relay, which responds to the manual braking control.

The present invention relates to a system, device, and method for checking functionality of tail lights, brake lights, and turn lights of a vehicle and/or a connected trailer. The invention includes a key fob device that wirelessly connects with a vehicle's on-board light control module (i.e. ECU). The key fob can be used from outside of the vehicle to transmit wireless instructions to flash or actuate tail lights, brake lights, and turn lights for a predetermined time enabling a user standing behind the vehicle to check the functionality of the lights of the vehicle. The user can activate control buttons on the key fob to selectively activate tail lights, brake lights, and turn lights. The present invention eliminates the need to ask for assistance to check functionality of vehicle lights or spend time getting in and out of a truck cab to check the lights while alone.

The present invention is an LED lighting system which can be retrofit to an existing vehicle. The lighting system can provide sequential lighting of multiple lamps for effect. In a non-limiting embodiment, a 7-pin wireless remote controller may be plugged directly into a vehicle's 7-pin hitch harness port where it draws power and receives light signals for stopping, hazard (four-way lights), turning. It then in turn will process and communicate these signals to a wireless LED strip. In another non-limiting embodiment, a 4-pin wireless remote controller may be connected directly to a vehicle's 4-pin harness plug, if equipped, or spliced directly into the vehicle's wire harness if it is not equipped with a 4-pin plug. The 4-pin wireless remote controller will process these light signals and communicate them to a wireless LED strip.

Provided is a vehicle signal light in which a person with protanopia (p-type color vision deficiency) can perceive whether or not the vehicle signal light, e.g., a stop lamp, a tail lamp, or the like, is turned on. The vehicle signal light includes a first light source configured to emit red light and a second light source configured to emit amber light. The first light source and the second light source are simultaneously turned on and are configured to emit light with a higher luminous intensity in response to a braking operation, and the emission intensity of the first light source is higher than that of the second light source.

The invention relates to a lighting device (1) for a motor vehicle, comprising: —a housing (10); —a noise-reducing material (11); characterised in that: —the noise-reducing material (11) is partially disposed inside the housing (10) and is in contact with the housing (10); —the housing (10) has at least one hole (100) and the noise-reducing material (11) is configured to pass through the at least one hole (100) and extends projecting from the at least one hole (100) to the outside of the housing (10).

Various examples are provided related to boat loaders for trailers. In one example, a boat loader includes a primary tube extending between a first end and a second end and a light tube that can move within the primary tube. The light tube can include light elements extending along a portion of the light tube at a first end and a float attached to the light tube at a second end. The primary tube can be coupled to a trailer at the second end and the first end of the light tube can extend outward from the first end of the primary tube exposing the light elements as the primary tube is submerged in water and can retract into the primary tube as the primary tube is removed from the water.
