ABSTRACT:
A lighting device is disclosed. The lighting device can be compact and can have a major surface configured to be attached to a substantially flat mounting surface. Within the lighting device, a light bar frame can be rotatable relative to a mounting plate around an axis substantially perpendicular to the major surface. Three or more rotatable light bars can be positioned within the light bar frame. The light bars can include lighting elements (e.g., light-emitting diodes) and can be positioned within the light bar frame such that their rotational axes are coplanar. The rotational axes of the light bars also can be substantially perpendicular to the axis around which the light bar frame rotates relative to the mounting plate. Furthermore, the rotational axes of the light bars can form three or more sides of a polygon (e.g. a triangle).
