Abstract

An illuminated hazard warning light is disclosed. The illuminated hazard warning light includes a substantially flat hollow triangular casing. A plurality of light emitting diodes is housed within the hollow triangular casing. A connection device, electrically connects the plurality of diodes to an electrical power source.

Claims

1. An illuminated hazard warning light, comprising:

a substantially flat hollow triangular casing;

a plurality of light emitting diodes housed within the hollow triangular casing; and

a connection device, electrically connecting the plurality of diodes to an electrical power source.

2. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 1, wherein the substantially flat hollow triangular casing is formed of a clear flexible material.

3. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 2, wherein the substantially flat hollow triangular casing is adhesive.

4. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 2, further comprising an adhesive layer disposed on the substantially flat hollow triangular casing, and a removable film layer disposed on the adhesive layer such that when the removable film layer is removed, the adhesive layer is exposed.

5. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 1, wherein the connection device is a switch connecting the plurality of light emitting diodes to the electrical power source.

6. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 1, wherein the connection device is a cigarette lighter adapter for connecting the plurality of diodes to a cigarette lighter in a vehicle.

7. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 1, further comprising a frame, whereby the substantially flat hollow casing is mounted within the frame.

8. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 7, wherein the frame is formed of aluminum.

9. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 1, further comprising a location tracking device.

10. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 9, wherein the location tracking device is a global positioning system device.

11. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 1, wherein the plurality of light emitting diodes are electrically connected in parallel to the power source.

12. The illuminated hazard warning light of claim 1, wherein the plurality of light emitting diodes are electrically connected in series with the power source.

13. An illuminated hazard warning light, comprising:

a substantially flat hollow triangular casing formed of a clear, flexible adhesive material;

a plurality of light emitting diodes housed within the hollow triangular casing;

a switch, electrically connecting the plurality of diodes to an electrical power source; and

an aluminum frame, whereby the substantially flat hollow casing is mounted within the aluminum frame.

14. An illuminated hazard warning light, comprising:

a substantially flat hollow triangular casing formed of a clear, flexible adhesive material;

a plurality of light emitting diodes housed within the hollow triangular casing;

a global positioning system, for providing location tracking of a vehicle;

a switch, electrically connecting the plurality of diodes and the global positioning system to an electrical power source; and

an aluminum frame, whereby the substantially flat hollow casing is mounted within the aluminum frame.
