Patent ID: 7708452

Claim:
An apparatus comprising a device that includes: an electrical connector through which said device can receive electrical power from externally thereof, said electrical connector comprising an Edison-type base having a cylindrical recess therein; a radiation generator that, when energized, emits electromagnetic radiation, said radiation generator comprising at least one light emitting diode (LED); a power supply including a flexible carrier having circuitry that includes interconnected electrical circuit components on both sides thereof, said circuitry being operatively coupled between said connector and said radiation generator to convert household electrical power to an output signal suitable to drive the at least one LED, said flexible carrier circuitry being responsive to adapting electrical power received through said connector for energizing said radiation generator in a manner causing said at least one LED to produce radiation that is emitted from said device; wherein said flexible carrier is bent to form a ring-like cylindrical shape disposed in matching relationship within the cylindrical recess of the Edison-type base, and has opposite edge portions that are adjacent and coupled, wherein said flexible carrier electrically isolates said circuitry from said electrical connector.
