Patent ID: 6953340

Claim:
A light for activating light-activated materials comprising: a wand adapted to be grasped by a human hand for use in positioning and manipulating the light, a wand housing that is at least a portion of the exterior surface of said wand, said wand housing having a top, a bottom, a left side, a right side, a proximal end and a distal end, a releasable connector at said wand housing distal end, said releasable connector being configured to permit attachment of a light module thereto, a light module, said light module being attachable to said housing at said releasable connector, said light module being detachable from said housing at said releasable connector, an elongate heat sink located on said light module, said elongate heat sink having heat dissipation properties, said elongate heat sink having a proximal end, a distal end, and a longitudinal axis therebetween, at least one semiconductor chip capable of emitting light of a wavelength that is useful in activating light-activated materials, said semiconductor chip being located in the vicinity of said elongate heat sink distal end, a cover for covering said chip, said cover being made at least in part from a material that permits light emitted by said chip to pass through said cover to travel to a light-activated material.
