Patent ID: 8602585

Claim:
A ground directed pathway light, comprising: a horizontal mount having a downwardly facing front planar surface with a width and a length and a midportion therebetween, and a perimeter edge about the planar surface of the mount, the mount having an upwardly facing rear surface on an opposite side of the mount; a plurality of LEDs (light emitting diodes) spaced apart attached to the downwardly facing front surface of the mount, the perimeter edge of the downwardly facing front planar surface of the mount arranged in a equally spaced apart configuration; a ground based engaging post having an upper end and a lower end, the lower end of the post extending downward from a midportion of the downwardly facing front planar surface of the mount, the lower end of the post being adapted for engagement with a ground surface; and a power source for providing power to simultaneously illuminate each of the plurality of LEDs directed toward a ground surface, wherein uniform light emissions without undesirable shadow effects are emitted from the plurality of LEDs in approximately 360 degrees directions toward the ground surface around the post.
