An apparatus for illuminating a rotating element of the apparatus with as few as a single light source and a method for assembling such apparatus are disclosed herein. The apparatus comprises a center, a clear substrate element that may rotate about the center, and a light source for evenly illuminating the clear substrate element. The light source is configured to emit light toward the clear substrate element at an angle, which is predetermined based on one or more attributes of the clear substrate element, such as the geometry and the index of refraction.

A lighting assembly adapted for placement upon an article of furniture and/or securement to a wall, including: a frame/housing sub-assembly; an electronics sub-assembly; and a display sub-assembly, wherein the display sub-assembly comprises a first substrate, a second substrate, and a third substrate, wherein the substrates cooperatively interact to provide one or more lighted motion effects.

A lighting device for providing decorative lighting is disclosed. In one embodiment, the lighting device comprises a base, said base comprises a base for retro-fitting a traditional incandescent light bulb, a continuous optical element in which a string of a plurality of light emitting diodes is arranged, and an envelope encapsulating said continuous optical element such that the lighting device resembles a traditional incandescent light bulb.

An illumination device, which comprises a light source and a battery to power the light source, provides improved light output without the need for complicated and therefore expensive optical arrangements by including a nonimaging light guide which collimates and optionally diffuses light emitted by the light source. In a particular embodiment of the invention these improvements are implemented in a multipurpose solar light which includes a solar panel, wherein the battery stores energy generated by the solar panel. The illumination device may comprise a casing having a front casing portion and a rear casing portion, wherein the nonimaging light guide is integrally formed with the front casing portion. The nonimaging light guide may have a shape comprising two conical frusta. Furthermore, the nonimaging light guide may comprise a recess in which the light source is located, the recess being larger than the light source such that there is a gap which permits airflow and in turn removal of heat from the light source as well as improved optical coupling.
