ABSTRACT:
A lighting arrangement for a backpack or waistpack includes an electro-luminescent strip, a power supply, and control device made up of a DC/AC converter electrically connected with the power supply, a transformer electrically connected with the DC/AC converter, a function interface electrically connected with the transformer, and a switch electrically connected between the transformer and the electro-luminescent light strip. The electro-luminescent light strip may be in the form of a multi-element light panel, permitting both single and multi-color lighting effects, as well as special effects such as random or sequential flashing, fading in and out, and so forth to be attained with a single panel. In addition, an on/off switch responsive to tilting or vibration of the backpack, or to a photosensor, can be included to provide additional special effects.
