Abstract

Aspects are described for dual-distribution lighting devices. For example, a dual-distribution lighting device includes a forward-throw module with a first lighting element that can provide directional light, a wide-throw module with a second lighting element that can provide light with a wide distribution, an interface element that can to receive input, and a processing device. In response to the input being received via the interface element, the processing device deactivates one of the forward-throw and wide-throw modules and activates the other of the forward-throw and wide-throw modules, thereby causing the dual-distribution lighting device to switch between providing directional light and a wide distribution of light.
