ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for generating a beam of light with a perceived beam having constant brightness comprising a flashlight apparatus having a parabolically shaped reflector, and the flashlight apparatus also having a equal-sided rotating hexagon present along the axis of the reflector. The outside surfaces of the hexagon are covered with a mirror-like surface for deflecting the light rays emanating from a light source located at the focus of a reflector in a changing pattern as the hexagon rotates about its axis, which is perpendicular to the reflector axis. The changing light pattern eliminates a dark area of the beam from the flashlight as the changing pattern directs light rays across the dark area as the hexagon rotates.
