Abstract

Various lighting devices and related methods are provided. In one example, a lighting device (100) includes a main member including a central axis. The lighting device (100) also includes a bezel (103) surrounding at least a portion of the main member and adapted to be concentrically rotated about the central axis. The lighting device (100) also includes a lens (504) asymmetrically disposed in the bezel (103) and adapted to rotate with the bezel (103). The lens (504) includes a light inlet offset from the central axis. The lighting device (100) also includes a plurality of light sources fixed relative to the main member. Rotation of the bezel (103) relative to the main member causes the light inlet to rotate through an arc about the central axis to selectively align different ones of the light sources with the light inlet.
