An elongate light collector has a first section connected to a curved second section. The collector further includes a terminal connected to the second section. Also an illuminating surface of the collector resides at the first section. The light collector first section lies on and along the surface first section. The light collector second section lies on and along said curve of the second section. A light generating source resides in the hollow.
