Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An apparatus comprising:
 a portable shelter; and   a lighting system incorporated within the shelter.   
   
   
       2 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the lighting system further comprises:
 at least one light emitting diode (LED);   circuitry for controlling LEDs; and   a power source to supply power to the LEDs.   
   
   
       3 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the portable shelter is a tent, an RV shade, an easy up, a remote bathroom structure or a shade shelter. 
   
   
       4 . The apparatus of  claim 2  wherein the power source is recharged by an external power supply. 
   
   
       5 . The apparatus of  claim 4  wherein the external power supply is solar energy. 
   
   
       6 . The apparatus of  claim 4  wherein the external power supply is a mechanical device. 
   
   
       7 . The apparatus of  claim 2  wherein the power source is a battery. 
   
   
       8 . The apparatus of  claim 7  wherein the power source is at least one rechargeable battery. 
   
   
       9 . The apparatus of  claim 2  wherein the power source is a hand powered generator. 
   
   
       10 . The apparatus of  claim 2  wherein the power source is a chemical reaction. 
   
   
       11 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising wiring embedded within the structure of the temporary shelter. 
   
   
       12 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising a control device controlling the function of the lighting system. 
   
   
       13 . The apparatus of  claim 12  wherein the control device is a wireless remote control device. 
   
   
       14 . The apparatus of  claim 12  wherein the control device is secured to the temporary shelter. 
   
   
       15 . The apparatus of  claim 12  wherein the control device is located proximate the opening of the portable shelter. 
   
   
       16 . The apparatus of  claim 12  wherein the control device is a button. 
   
   
       17 . The apparatus of  claim 12  wherein the control device is a switch. 
   
   
       18 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the power source is rechargeable with a plug in adapter. 
   
   
       19 . The apparatus of  claim 18  wherein the plug in adapter is adaptable to various standard plugs. 
   
   
       20 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising wiring associated with the control of the lighting system is incorporated within material which comprises the shelter. 
   
   
       21 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising wiring associated with the control of the lighting system is incorporated within a support structure used to support the shelter. 
   
   
       22 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the portable shelter further comprises a support structure which is used conduct electricity for the control system. 
   
   
       23 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising pizzo electric alarm wherein the alarm emits an audible signal. 
   
   
       24 . The apparatus of  claim 1  wherein the audible signal is approximately 110 db. 
   
   
       25 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising a reflective surface to enhance light from the LED. 
   
   
       26 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising a lens to enhance light from the LED. 
   
   
       27 . The apparatus of  claim 26  wherein the lens to can be adjusted to defuse the light from the LED. 
   
   
       28 . The apparatus of  claim 26  wherein the lens to can be adjusted to focus the light from the LED. 
   
   
       29 . The apparatus of  claim 2  wherein the LED is selected from a group consisting of 1, 3, and 5 watt bulbs. 
   
   
       30 . The apparatus of  claim 1  further comprising a universal serial bus (USB) jack used to power devices which support USB. 
   
   
       31 . A lighting system comprising:
 at least one light emitting diode (LED);   a removeable secured cartridge for holding the LEDs wherein the cartridge can be removed in order to replace the LED's;   circuitry for controlling LEDs; and   a power source to supply power to the LEDs.   
   
   
       32 . The lighting system of  claim 31  further comprising:
 a socket;   wherein the cartridge is inserted into the socket.
