Abstract
A flashlight support device having a hollow open body that has at least one open end and is designed to removably fit over the body of a flashlight. Attached in substantially diametric opposition adjacent to one open end is at least one pair of separate legs for rotation in the Y-axis. Each leg is comprised of a bendable material and is capable of being bent, without any additional mechanism, into substantially any position and configuration in the X and Z-axis. A rotation mechanism and the adjustable and bendable legs attached thereto allows each rotatable and bendable leg to be rotated into a number of incremental positions in the Y-axis over a range of a full 360°. In preferred embodiments, the flashlight support device has two opposed open ends, and there are at least two pairs of adjustable and bendable legs attached to the hollow body for rotation in the Y-axis.
