Systems, methods, and devices for providing a track light and portable light
First Claim
1. A light module comprising:
- a module housing containing a light emitting aperture;
a light emitting diode (LED) light source located inside the module housing, wherein the LED light source is aligned with the light emitting aperture;
a driver electrically connected to the LED light source;
a chargeable power supply component electrically connected to the driver;
at least two magnets attached to the exterior of the module housing, wherein at least one magnet is associated with a positive electrical terminal and another magnet is associated with a negative terminal, wherein at least one of the at least two magnets provides electrical power to at least one of the chargeable power supply component or the driver, and wherein the at least one of the at least two magnets provides mechanical connection to a track system, and wherein the light module is positionable along the track system via the at least one of the at least two magnets; and
an inductive element for providing an electromagnetic force between the module housing and the track system.
