1. A lighting system comprising:

  • a power source supplying electrical power;

    a first light source configured to operate in a plurality of first light output modes to generate a different variable light output in each first light output mode based on the electrical power supplied from the power source;

    a second light source configured to operate in a plurality of second light output modes to generate a different light output in each second light output mode based on the electrical power supplied from the power source;

    a switch for allowing toggling between transmission and interruption of the electrical power supplied from the power source to the first and second light sources;

    a first controller configured to detect how long the toggling is repeated and control the first light source to operate in one of the plurality of first light output modes when the toggling is repeated for one of a plurality of predetermined durations, the plurality of predetermined durations provided corresponding to the plurality of first light output modes, respectively; and

    a second controller configured to detect how long the toggling is repeated and control the second light source to operate in one of the plurality of second light output modes when the toggling is repeated for one of the plurality of predetermined durations, the plurality of predetermined durations provided corresponding to the plurality of second light output modes, respectively,wherein the first and second controllers operate the first and second light sources in different light output modes, respectively, to generate different light outputs, respectively, when the toggling is repeated for at least one of the plurality of predetermined durations.
