A portable headlight assembly for illuminating a surgical site and moves with the surgeon, the headlight assembly having a headlight source, such as a HID lamp, to illuminate via a light cable coupled to receive and transmit the illumination in the range of natural daylight between 5000 and 6700 degrees Kelvin, a power supply that couples to the HID lamp when the light cable is located to receive focused light from it, and a control that monitors the operation of the headlight source and the portable power supply and is responsive to temperature of the portable power supply and radiation supplying illumination. The light cable extends between the HID lamp to guide illumination from the HID lamp and its reflector to a lens carried on a head strap worn by a practitioner for delivering the illumination to the surgical site.

Headlight apparatus and method

A corner level apparatus arranged for alignment of structural components at a corner intersection includes intersecting first and second arms, wherein the arms define an acute included angle therebetween, generally at forty-five degrees. A mount projects rearwardly of the junction for securement of a spirit level arranged parallel to a top surface of the first and second arms. A modification of the invention includes support legs telescopingly and adjustably mounted relative to a bottom surface of the arms projecting downwardly therefrom for support of the level structure for use as a gauge and a securement of various structural components at the corner intersection of a dwelling, wherein the apparatus in a further refinement includes chalk lines retractably mounted within each of the arms for alignment of the arms and use of the chalk line as a gauge in structural construction.
