ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a lighting accessory which may be worn by an individual that allows the user to variably direct the light emissions along an arc of approximately 180 degrees in front of and above the user. Once the light is positioned, it can be operated hands-free. The apparatus is self-contained having a housing comprised of two members hingedly connected together. When the housing is opened by rotating one member about the common hinge axis relative to the other housing member, the internal light switch is triggered to activate the light source. The switch is operably responsive to the relative positions of the housing members, disengaging the light source from the power source when the members are closed and engaging the light source to the power source when the housing unit is open.
