Abstract:
A lighting assembly comprising:(1) a housing;(2) a source of electric power transmitted within the housing;(3) a series of light emitting diodes mounted within said housing and sufficient in output wavelength for excitation of phosphorous receptive to an ultra-violet region of the electromagnetic spectrum;(4) transforming means to convert power into a known voltage for use by a plurality of said light emitting diodes;(5) a light emitting transparent surface having an interior surface area; and(6) a coating of ultra-violet excitable phosphorous and placed on the interior surface area of said transparent enclosure, whereby when said phosphorous coating is excited by light emitted from said diodes, a light spectrum visible to the naked eye is produced by said coating and through the transparent surface.
