Abstract:
A toilet paper holder task light device that emanates a gentle, soft glow and task lighting to assist a user with the use of the toilet paper holder and toilet paper in the absence of sufficient natural lighting creating a soothing atmosphere conducive to bodily functions and without re-dilating one's eyes during nighttime use. The device is a removable wall attachment above the toilet paper holder that, when activated, illuminates the semi-translucent case of the device by means of a high-intensity, blue LED creating a glow and surrounding luminosity. The light is directed downward and outward at a pre-engineered angle to illuminate the toilet paper holder and toilet paper for the user's task management and reloading, as needed, accommodating both male and female users of all ages. A timer circuit which, when energized, activates the LED and switching device (manual or automated), i.e., darkness sensor and proximity switch activated by the user's hand in the general vicinity of the existing toilet paper holder. At the end of a fixed or adjusted time interval, the device shuts off and remains in a default mode until reactivated by the user.
