ABSTRACT:
A marker flashlight and stand therefore is described. A tube of translucent, somewhat flexible material is adapted for releasable securement to the flashlight's lamp section. When the flashlight is turned on, almost the entire tube of translucent material is caused to glow. The tube can also be coated with a phosphorescent material so that it is capable of glowing even when the flashlight is not producing light. The tube can be removed from the flashlight's lamp section and placed about the body of the flashlight. The tube can be compressed so that the flashlight can still be received within a standard holster-type holder that has an interior area having a diameter approximately equal to the diameter of the flashlight's body. The tube may include a strap for enabling the tube to be attached to a user's clothing and be a holder for the flashlight.
The stand includes a wide base that is adjustably and releasably secured to the body of the flashlight. The stand can support the flashlight in a fixed position and can also be used to secure the flashlight to a user's clothing. An aperture is located at one end of the base so that the stand can be hung from an existing hook or nail. In an alternate embodiment of the stand, the base includes two pivotally attached outriggers that enable a user to increase the effective width of the base.
