Abstract

A personal consumer product having an energy emitting element in selective electrical communication with a power source is provided. Thermal control circuitry is used to isolate the energy emitting element from the power source when a temperature of the energy emitting element exceeds a threshold. A diagnostics routine is used to test the functionality of the hardware and software of the personal consumer product.
