The illuminants arrangement includes a plurality of LED-based light sources that are encased in a water-tight manner by way of one or more encasings, wherein the light sources are, at least in a group-wise manner, operationally interconnected by way of electrical connection leads. The connection leads include voltage supply leads. The illuminants arrangement as a protection of the one or more encasings and the light sources from mechanical damage includes at least one protective overlay for being placed onto the one or more encasings, so that light emitted by the light sources can be emitted through the at least one protective overlay. The illuminants arrangement can include a heating device. Each of the light sources can be suitable for emitting light of a variable color, wherein the color of each of the light sources can be individually selected by way of a control unit.

A removable lighting system for skates or skateboards by mounting a lighting assembly underside of the skateboard and providing a light in the night to the user. The lighting system, including: a riding platform having a top riding surface and a bottom surface a front lighting source; a back lighting source and at least one power source.

Systems and methods for intelligent data center power management and energy market disaster recovery comprised of data collection layer, infrastructure elements, application elements, power elements, virtual machine elements, analytics/automation/actions layer, analytics or predictive analytics engine, automation software, actions software, energy markets analysis layer and software and intelligent energy market analysis elements or software. Plurality of data centers employ the systems and methods comprised of a plurality of Tier 2 data centers that may be running applications, virtual machines and physical computer systems to enable data center and application disaster recovery from utility energy market outages. Systems and methods may be employed to enable application load balancing and data center power load balancing across a plurality of data centers may lead to financial benefits when moving application and power loads from one data center location using power during peak energy hours to another data center location using power during off-peak hours.

An “L” shaped bracket is disclosed that is mounted onto a skateboard truck mounting base using one pre-existing corner bolt that provides a means to mount a clip which holds a removable light. The light casts illumination towards the front and/or back of the board allowing the skateboarder to see a path in front of them in the dark and to be visible to others.

An illumination system for a handheld support apparatus is disclosed. A variety of applications for the handheld support apparatus are considered, including, but not limited to, hiking, downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, trailblazing, rock climbing, and mountaineering. The illumination system can advantageously illuminate the surrounding environment of the handheld support apparatus during use. Illumination systems can be disposed within the support apparatus or on the external surface of the support apparatus. The illumination system can comprise a power source and a light-emitting device. The illumination system can further comprise at least one internal electrical conductor configured to transfer power from the power source to the light-emitting device. In some embodiments, the light-emitting from the support apparatus can be controlled by predetermined values to optimize preferred performance parameters.

A method and system for use in the game of football to determine ball placement and position, as well as first down demarcations, is described, with various embodiments configured to track the location of a football to determine its position on the field and to determine and display the first down demarcation on the field. Certain embodiments employ software to assist in performing placement determinations, distance determinations, track movement of the ball, first down markers, as well as light emitting modules along a track that extends parallel to the field.

A system for lighting a volleyball court has four corner light assemblies, two side center light assemblies, and four mid-court light assemblies. Each corner light assembly has an upper light fixture adapted to emit light outward and downward at a level generally below a player's eye level and a lower light element mounted in a manner to emit light outwards and upwards. Each side center light assembly has two lower light fixtures adapted to emit light outward and downward at a level generally below a player's eye level and an upper light assembly adapted to emit light outwards and upwards at a level generally above a player's eye level. Each mid-court light assembly has a light fixture adapted to emit light outward and downward at a level generally below a player's eye level. By ensuring that no light is emitted at a player's eye level, glare is significantly reduced.

An electric skateboard has a frame assembly that includes a deck with an opening of the deck to house a battery case mounted to a bottom of the deck. The frame includes a top plate that covers the opening and forms with the battery case an enclosure. A battery pack is positioned in at least partially in the enclosure. Front and a rear trucks are mounted to the bottom of the deck. At least one of the first and front and rear trunks is coupled to first and second wheels mounted on axles of the front and rear trucks. The front truck is mounted on the front end and a rear truck is mounted on rear end of the deck. First and second wheels are powered by one motor with a differential and a shaft coupled to the first and second wheel. The motor is coupled to the shaft to rotate the first and second wheels. The motor is electrically connected to the battery pack through a rear channel. The motor rotates the first and second wheels in the same directions and propels the electric skateboard forward and backward.
