Abstract
A small and non-intrusive reflector is disclosed for use with a strobe light system for enhancing light distribution for wall mounted application, while maintaining a low current draw. The reflector comprises a "top reflective section" and a "bottom reflective section", where each reflective section comprises three distinct reflective portions: a left reflective portion, a center reflective portion and a right reflective portion. Collectively, top section left portion and bottom section left portion provide illumination to a negative horizontal range of viewing angles, whereas top section right portion and bottom section right portion provide illumination to a positive horizontal range of viewing angles. Finally, the top section center portion and bottom section center portion provide illumination to a range of horizontal and vertical viewing angles.
