ABSTRACT:
An automatically-lighting flashlight assembly includes a flashlight and a holder. The flashlight includes a housing receiving an upper and a lower batteries in series connection and a light bulb arrangement, and two springs which bias the batteries normally to light the light bulb. The housing further includes a through hole at a location where the cathode of the upper battery meets the anode of the lower battery. The holder, which is coated with phosphorescent material and which is mountable, includes means for gripping the flashlight against the holder, and a separating rod which can extend into the through hole in the housing and between the batteries, breaking the electrical connection and extinguishing the light bulb. By this arrangement, the flashlight lights automatically when removed from the holder and is extinguished automatically when replaced in the holder.
