Claims13
A non-portable desktop LED reading light, comprising:
- at least one USB unit to supply electric current to other products;
- at least one LED assembly having an arrangement of a plurality of LEDs controlled by at least one integrated circuit, conductor, or switch to control color and brightness for providing reading illumination from on top of an adjustable arm;
- and
- a device included in said non-portable desktop LED reading light that is, or is configured to perform, at least one:
- (1) area illumination,
- (2) a charging status signal,
- (3) an airflow function,
- (4) an LED time display by LED segments,
- (5) an image display or projection,
- (6) a timepiece,
- (7) an LED candle set, and
- (8) a night light,
- wherein the more than one USB-unit fits within the desk top LED light and includes circuitry for converting an input DC from a transformer into at least one USB charging output current of not less than 1.0 A and a voltage of 5V to charge the other products, and
- wherein the at least one USB unit is configured to be fixed on a back, contour, or arm of the desk top LED light.
