ABSTRACT:
A flashlight assembly has a body with spaced end portions each attachable to one of two shoulder straps so that the body may be suspended across the chest of a user with its end portions level. The body includes a battery compartment and a switch, and each end portion has lugs pivotally mounting a lamp, each lamp including a reflector and a light source connectable to a battery in the compartment via the switch. The lamps are independently pivotal through at least a right angle about a horizontal axis such that with the body held in position across the user's chest, the lamps may be adjusted so that one provides a light beam capable of illuminating the ground near the user's feet while the other illuminates objects in front of the user, or alternatively so that both lamps may illuminate objects in front of the user.
