A novel LED lamp comprising:
- a lamp body;
- an LED mounted to the lamp body;
- an outer (exit) window comprising an edge surface;
- a photodetector;
- a light pipe for transmitting light from the edge surface of the outer (exit) window to the photodetector;
- and
- a hinged clamp for releasably mounting the outer (exit) window to the lamp body such that light emitted from the LED passes through the outer (exit) window;
- wherein the lamp body comprises a heat sink and a reflector mounted to the heat sink, wherein the LED is mounted to the heat sink, and wherein the hinged clamp is mounted to the reflector.
