A landscape lighting fixture has elongated wiring and a sealed self-contained waterproof LED module unit. This module unit has an LED lighting element with a plurality of up firing LED lights for providing illumination in a lateral, an upward, and a vertical direction and a plurality of outward firing LED lights for providing illumination horizontal direction. An integrated lens is located over the lighting element and a lens filter is located over the lens. A rubber grommet is provided to allow the LED module unit to be press-fitted into openings, in certain applications.

Modular speaker system

A landscape lighting fixture utilizes a cylindrical bollard shroud member which houses an electrical light source, e.g. an LED module. The shroud number extends upwardly from an elongated riser element. A vertically adjustable path hat support system affixed to a path hat circumscribes the shroud member, thereby allowing the path hat to be vertically adjustable in relation to the shroud member. The path hat and path hat support system can also be vertically adjustable along the riser element, without an attached shroud member. In either case, the adjustability of the path hat allows the lighting fixture to provide a wider or narrower light beam angle from the light source without adjusting the illumination from the light source.

Speaker

A feeder/interconnection/return (FIR) Cable Loop System vastly improves the distribution, equalization, efficiency and power delivery of high performance multiple speaker systems, without the complexities and inherent inefficiencies of existing systems. This is achieved by a feeder cable which connects from an amplifier to the first speaker, while interconnecting cables connect all the speakers to each other. A return cable connects the last speaker back to the amplifier. This results in balanced power, significant improvement in frequency response, and dynamic range.

An elliptically shaped speaker has a driver assembly which may include a woofer driver and a tweeter driver. The speaker has a uniquely designed bridge member. The bridge member acts both as a structural element and waveguide for the tweeter. It has a specific elongated, elliptical shape that allows the speaker to be inserted into a corresponding cut-out opening in a wall, ceiling or any other structural panel, then rotated behind the panel and re-inserted from behind into the opening, thereby providing a secure seal and exact positioning within the panel. The resulting system allows for a low frequency speaker to be installed behind the panel with a noticeably smaller opening than the total size of the speaker.

A camlock electrical connector has a first connector member with a bottom platform having an opening and an upstanding wall. Pin elements extend outwardly from the wall and a cable connector extends outwardly from and externally of the wall. A second connector member has a connector body with a fulcrum peg extending downwardly from the body. The peg is inserted into the opening in the platform, such that the second connector member is rotatable in relation to the first connector member. When electrical wiring is positioned between the wall of the first connector and the body of the second connector member, rotation of the second connection member and its peg in relation to the first connection member causes the pin elements to pierce the electrical wiring, thereby securing the wiring to the electrical connector.

An omni, bollard speaker has circular, cylindrical lower and upper housings. A domed driver is mounted within the top wall of the lower housing and a speaker is rotatably mounted in the internal space in the upper housing, between the top wall of the lower housing and the speaker cover of the upper housing. The speaker is rotatable from a first horizontal position directly over the domed driver to reflect wide dispersion acoustical output directly over the driver to disburse sound evenly within the listening area. The speaker can be quickly rotated downward and converted from this down-firing omni reflecting position to a side firing position or an up-and-out, direct radiating position. Thus, the same speaker serves many different sound coverage applications and can be customized on site for best use.

A fully integrated, smart, under/over water speaker system has two dedicated transducers which deliver sound directly to underwater and above water environments. A transducer which is optimized to couple sound to the air is positioned on top of a speaker and another transducer optimized to couple sound below the water is located on the bottom of the speaker. The speaker is watertight and waterproof and is completely sealed and self-righting when thrown into the water. It is wireless, has built-in integrated amplification, communication sensors and signal data processing, and is battery powered. Music streaming can be provided via wireless methods such as Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, along with solid state storage. Integrated RGV lighting which beats to the music can be optional both above and under the water.

Above and under the water speaker

A variable waveguide speaker controls, narrows, and directs the dispersion of the lower driver array to handle far-field listening areas. The widening mid-section of the speaker directs the sound from the mid-driver array to mid-field listening areas. The top of the speaker is the widest, allowing the top array drivers to cover their widest dispersion for near-field listening areas. This form-follows-function design results in a modern shape and elegant enclosure, as well as superior audio performance. A unique laminar flow grill system consisting of a multi-layer sandwich arrangement protects the speaker components from performance damage UV rays, dust, debris, water and ice.

Audio speaker

A radial dome speaker is provided which emits sound up and out from low or no profile speakers, resulting in clear and true acoustics and allows direct driver exposure to the elements regardless of its orientation. The speaker is specially configured with a radial surround element which allows for self-cleaning and self-draining, even in outdoor environments.
