First Claim
1. An emergency light system comprising:
- a rectangular shaped snap on system housing member that has a battery top receiving compartment formed therein, first and second terminal receiving members extending into said battery top receiving compartment and two snap connectors for snap connecting said system housing member to a vehicle wet cell battery, said first and second terminal receiving members each having a terminal receiving cavity formed therein sized to receive a battery terminal of a vehicle wet cell battery and further having a spring biased electrical contact positioned within each said terminal receiving cavity, each spring biased electrical contact including an electrically conducting biasing spring and a contact member attached to a moveable end of said biasing spring;
a bulb housing positioned on top of said system housing member and defining a lamp compartment in connection with a diffuser lens opening;
a lamp diffuser lens covering said diffuser lens opening of said bulb housing member;
an on/off switch; and
a lamp socket mounted within said lamp compartment;
