Abstract

A wireless lighting system for providing convenient illumination where needed with centralized control. The wireless lighting system includes a main transmitter assembly providing a centralized control capability; including a housing defining an interior space and a transmitter member positioned substantially within the housing for generating and transmitting control signals, and a plurality of lamp assemblies each having a base portion and a lamp member. Each lamp member selectively provides illumination. Each one of the base portions has a base housing defining an interior space and an energy storage member positioned within said housing for selectively providing electrical current to an associated lamp member. Additionally, each one of said base portions includes a receiver portion positioned within the housing for receiving control signals generated and transmitted by the transmitter member.
