ABSTRACT:
A disposable, floating electric flashlight that glows in the dark and is illuminated by merely squeezing the flashlight casing. Any external switch actuator passing through the flashlight casing is thereby eliminated facilitating buoyancy. When the flashlight is illuminated, phosphorescent material within the internal walls of the flashlight casing is regenerated to cause the flashlight to glow in the dark. If the flashlight is accidentally dropped into water, the lamp is balanced to float the flashlight in a predetermined orientation to enable the glowing light to be quickly retrieved.
