Patent ID: 8362703

Claim:
A light emitting assembly comprising: a light-emitting diode; a power source; a flexible cable connecting the power source and the light-emitting diode, the flexible cable comprising a first electrically conductive layer, a second electrically conductive layer disposed over the first electrically conductive layer, and an electrically insulating layer disposed between the first and second electrically conductive layers, wherein: the first and second electrically conductive layers substantially overlay each other and have substantially the same area, the first end of the flexible cable is electrically connected to the light-emitting diode, and the flexible cable is configured to transmit electrical power to the light-emitting diode; and a switch on the flexible cable, wherein the switch is configured to provide current to the light-emitting diode from the power source when in a first state and to not provide current from the power source to the light-emitting diode when in a second state, wherein a distance between the light-emitting diode and the switch is less than 5 cm.
