Abstract
An illumination device includes a spool body having a top flange extending from a perimeter of a first end of the spool body and a bottom flange extending from the perimeter of a second end of the spool body opposite the first end of the spool body, a rope light selectively wrapped around the spool body, and a power source disposed with the spool body and electrically coupled to the rope light such that the power source causes the rope light to emit light. An end of the rope light may be secured to the spool body and a second send of the rope light may include an attachment device for attaching the rope light to a rope or like support. Circuitry components may be configured to electrically couple the power source to the rope light and control an illumination mode of the rope light.
