FLASHLIGHT WITH FLEXIBLE EXTENSION

摘要

A flashlight comprises a housing (12) adapted to accommodate batteries and an elongate extension (14) having a proximal end (16) connected to the housing and a distal end (18) opposite the proximal end adapted to accommodate a light bulb. Electrically conductive leads (20) carried by the extension are adapted to connect the battery to the bulb. The extension is formed of multiple strands of twisted copper wire or another material separate from the conductive leads that can be easily flexed by hand to assume a plurality of different shapes and that can retain a given shape indefinitely. The housing and the bulb can each be conveniently positioned and oriented independently of the other.
