Led light source

An LED light source comprising:

• (a) a hollow longitudinally extending member which comprises a portion that, when the LED light source is positioned on a horizontal surface, has a lower end, an upper end and a longitudinal axis that extends between the lower end and the upper end;
• (b) a longitudinally extending member positioned internal of the hollow longitudinally extending member, the longitudinally extending member having an upper end through which light is receivable internal of the longitudinally extending member and a longitudinally extending outer surface wherein light is transmissible through the longitudinally extending outer surface;
• and,
• (c) a light source is moveable in a plane transverse to the longitudinal axis between a first position in which the light source is spaced from the upper end of the longitudinally extending member and an operating position in which the light source is located at the upper end of the longitudinally extending member whereby, in operation when the light source is in the operating position, light that is produced by the light source enters the longitudinally extending member thought the upper end of the longitudinally extending member and is transmitted through the longitudinally extending outer surface.
