Light emitting diode (LED) lighting device or lamp with configurable light qualities
First Claim
1. An LED lighting device or LED lamp comprising:
- one or more LED packages;
driver circuitry configured to provide a controllable electrical current to at least one of the one or more LED packages during operation of the LED lighting device or LED lamp;
a switch comprising at least two selectable positions, at least one selectable position corresponding to a set operating mode and one selectable position corresponding to a configurable operating mode; and
a communication interface element for communicating with a user-selection switch, the user-selection switch configured to provide an indication of received user input for selecting user-selected operating light qualities when the switch is in the selectable position corresponding to the configurable operating mode,wherein;
when the switch is in the selectable position corresponding to the set operating mode, (a) the one or more LED packages are operated in accordance with predefined operating light qualities corresponding to the set operating mode and (b) in response to receiving the indication of received user input for selecting user-selected operating light qualities, the one or more LED packages continue to be operated in accordance with the predefined operating light qualities corresponding to the set operating mode, andwhen the switch is in the selectable position corresponding to the configurable operating mode, in response to receiving the indication of received user input for selecting user-selected operating light qualities, operation of the one or more LED packages is modified in accordance with the user-selected operating light qualities.

Abstract
An LED lighting device or LED lamp comprises one or more LED packages, driver circuitry configured to provide a controllable electrical current to at least one of the one or more LED packages during operation of the LED lighting device or LED lamp; and a switch comprising at least two selectable options. At least one selectable option corresponds to a set operating mode and one selectable option corresponds to a configurable operating mode. During operation, when the switch is in a position to select the selectable option corresponding to the configurable operating mode, the driver circuitry operates at least one of the one or more LED packages to emit light having operating light qualities corresponding to a most recently received signal indicating a user-selection. The user-selection may be provided through user interaction with an interactive element of the LED lighting device or LED lamp, wall switch, or portable remote switch.
