A flashlight is disclosed which includes a housing adapted to receive one or
more
battery cells and having a transparent lens on a forward end thereof. An LED light
source connected to the cell is utilized in conjunction with collimating optics
positioned adjacent the LED to refract rays of light from the LED forwardly. A
first paraboloid reflector having a concave reflective surface is positioned within
said housing to receive rays of light from the collimating optics and to reflect
the rays rearwardly and a second paraboloid reflector having a concave reflective
surface is positioned within said housing to receive rays of light reflected rearwardly
from the first paraboloid reflector and to further reflect the rays forwardly through
the transparent lens.
