Utilizing such an embodiment provides a user the ability to sync, compliment, or otherwise pair two or more lighting devices via a single control panel.
[0033] Embodiments of the portable lighting system are entirely scalable to as many portable lighting devices as needed in a single system. In certain embodiments, where a multitude of portable lighting devices are utilized in a single system, it may be desirable to designate a single device as a host device, and a plurality of other devices as sub- hosts. For example, in one embodiment, a portable lighting system may be spread over a significant area, such that a low-frequency signal transmitted from a host device may not reach a remotely positioned client device. As such, an intermediary device (i.e., a third portable lighting device) may be designated as a sub-host to re-transmit the original signal from the host device, such that the distance each signal must travel is significantly less. By utilizing sub-hosts, it is conceivable that a portable lighting system in accordance with embodiments of the present invention could extend across a limitless area.
[0034] In accordance with additional embodiments of the present invention, each client may be separately controllable from a single host. Alternatively, each client may be designated within a subset of clients to be controlled as a group. It is conceivable that any arrangement of hosts, sub-hosts, and clients are within the scope of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0035] In accordance with embodiments of the present invention, the portable lighting device 100 may be waterproof. In such an embodiment, the housing 102 may be sealed so minimal or negligible liquid may penetrate through any surface or seam to infiltrate an interior portion of the housing 102. This may be desirable for outdoor applications where rain, snow, or other water sources may be near a portable lighting device 100. Furthermore, a waterproof casing allows embodiments of the present invention the device to be used in emergency situations, for example, by emergency or rescue services where liquid, in any form, may be present.
[0036] In other embodiments of the present invention, a portable lighting device is provided with sufficient LED power to meet military lighting, government emergency lighting (e.g., FEMA), and other highly-regulated lighting standards. The ability to regulate the LED power is also advantageous for portable lighting devices in accordance with embodiments of the present invention in professional lighting, semi- professional lighting, or amateur lighting environments.
