System for providing pathway indications through unlit areas

[0023]FIG. 1 illustrates an auxiliary lighting system 10 according to the present invention. The auxiliary lighting system 10 includes a photoelectric collector 12 positioned in such a manner as to receive a maximal amount of sunlight. If the auxiliary lighting system is to be used indoors, the collector could be placed indoors, in a place where it will be exposed to light, or it can be placed outdoors. The photoelectric collector 12 is then connected to an auto-switching energy sensor 14. The sensor 14 is then connected to one or more electrical storage devices 16. The storage devices 16 can then be connected to one or more LEDs 18 as the light source of the auxiliary lighting system 10. The sensor 14 can also provide an additional electric pathway directly from the photoelectric collector 12 to the LEDs 18.

[0024]FIG. 2 illustrates a modification of the present invention, shown as the auxiliary lighting system 20. In this embodiment, the photoelectric collector 12 is connected to the
