Abstract

A light includes a housing having a top face, a bottom face, a first side face, a second side face, and a surface arranged adjacent to the bottom face. The top face, the bottom face, the first side face, the second side face, and the surface are each configured to support the light. The light further includes a head pivotally coupled to the housing. The head includes a lens and a plurality of LEDs configured to emit light through the lens. The light additionally includes a power source configured to provide power to the plurality of LEDs. The head is positioned between the top face, the bottom face, and the first and second side faces in a first position of the head. The surface is obliquely oriented relative to the lens when the head is in the first position.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A light comprising:
a housing including a top face, a bottom face, a first side face, a second side face, and a surface arranged adjacent to the bottom face, wherein the top face, the bottom face, the first side face, the second side face, and the surface are each configured to support the light;
a head pivotally coupled to the housing, the head including a lens and a plurality of LEDs configured to emit light through the lens; and
a power source configured to provide power to the plurality of LEDs,
wherein the head is positioned between the top face, the bottom face, and the first and second side faces in a first position of the head, and
wherein the surface is obliquely oriented relative to the lens when the head is in the first position.

2. The light of claim 1 , wherein the head is pivotable about an axis relative to the housing to adjust an orientation of the head relative to the housing.

3. The light of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of fins disposed on the head and configured to provide cooling for the plurality of LEDs.

4. The light of claim 3 , wherein the plurality of fins is formed from aluminum.

5. The light of claim 1 , wherein the power source is a battery pack.

6. The light of claim 1 , further comprising a circuit board within the head, wherein the circuit board is configured to support the plurality of LEDs.

7. The light of claim 1 , further comprising a clamp member coupled to the first side face.

8. A light comprising:
a housing including a top face, a bottom face, a first side face, a second side face, and a surface arranged adjacent to the bottom face, wherein the top face, the bottom face, the first side face, the second side face, and the surface are each configured to support the light;
a head pivotally coupled to the housing, the head including a lens and a plurality of LEDs configured to emit light through the lens along a light emission axis;
a power source configured to provide power to the plurality of LEDs; and
a clamp member coupled to the first side face, wherein the clamp member extends from the first side face in a direction substantially normal to the light emission axis.

9. The light of claim 8 , wherein the clamp member is C-shaped.

10. The light of claim 8 , wherein the clamp member is movably coupled to the housing.

11. The light of claim 8 , wherein the clamp member is movable relative to the housing between a retracted position and an extended position.

12. The light of claim 8 , wherein the surface is oriented at an oblique angle with respect to the bottom face.

13. The light of claim 8 , wherein the head is pivotable about an axis relative to the housing to adjust an orientation of the head relative to the housing.

14. A light comprising:
a housing including a top face, a bottom face, a first side face, a second side face, and a surface arranged adjacent to the bottom face, wherein the top face, the bottom face, the first side face, the second side face, and the surface are each configured to support the light;
a head pivotally coupled to the housing, the head including a lens and a plurality of LEDs configured to emit light through the lens;
a power source configured to provide power to the plurality of LEDs;
a circuit board within the head, wherein the circuit board is configured to support the plurality of LEDs; and
a plurality of fins coupled to the circuit board and configured to provide cooling for the plurality of LEDs.

15. The light of claim 14 , wherein the plurality of fins is formed from aluminum.

16. The light of claim 14 , wherein the plurality of fins is disposed on the head.

17. The light of claim 14 , wherein the power source is a battery pack.

18. The light of claim 14 , wherein the head is positioned between the top face, the bottom face, and the first and second side faces in a first position of the head.

19. The light of claim 18 , wherein the head is pivotable about an axis relative to the housing to adjust an orientation of the head relative to the housing.

20. The light of claim 14 , further comprising a clamp member coupled to the first side face.
