Abstract:
1. An adjustable fluid-driven illumination device, comprising: a nozzle; at least one light-emitting element connected to the nozzle; a grip connected to the nozzle; and a turbine generator electrically connected to the light-emitting element, and including at least one rotatable blade; and an actuator moving the turbine generator between a first position inside the grip and a second position at least partially into the nozzle; wherein the first and second positions are arranged such that when the turbine generator is in the second position, the at least one rotatable blade is caused to rotate by the impact of a fluid flowing through the nozzle, the turbine generator thereby generating electric power, to power the light-emitting element and when the turbine generator is in the second position, the rotatable blade is not subjected to the impact of the fluid flowing through the nozzle, stopping the turbine generator from generating the electric power.
