US12641698 - Tactical light with automated lighting controls and systems including the same

A light includes a housing, a first illumination assembly, a second illumination assembly, and a control unit. The housing defines a central axis. The first illumination assembly, the second illumination assembly, and the control unit are disposed within the housing. The first illumination assembly and the second illumination assembly each have an on state in which a light beam is emitted and an off state. The control unit is configured to detect a first pitch and a second pitch of the central axis with respect to a direction of the force of gravity. The control unit is in signal communication with the first illumination assembly and the second illumination assembly such that in the first pitch the first illumination assembly is in the on state and in the second pitch the second illumination assembly is in the on the state.
