Abstract:     High-intensity LEDs are mountd on or form part of an object to be illuminated. The object has first electrical terminals thereon that are coupled to the LEDs. A portable electrical circuit having second terminals for detachable coupling to the first terminals on the object causes the LED to flash and provide visibility to the object. The electrical circuit is contained in a package that has a first Velcro strip thereon. A second Velcro strip is mounted on the object near the first terminals so that the electrical circuit can be attached thereto by the Velcro strips and the electrical terminals coupled together.
