Fan cooled portable light panel

A portable light panel comprising:

• a. a housing having a rear portion, a front portion, peripheral portions between the front and rear portions, and at least one rib extending between the peripheral portions, the peripheral portions including ambient air inlets, the housing comprising a housing panel and a cover plate attached to housing panel defining an air intake chamber between the housing panel and cover plate;
• b. a light-emitting panel;
• c. electronic components to control the light emitted by the light-emitting panel, a first portion of the electronic components being located proximate the air intake chamber between the housing and the light emitting panel, and wherein the ambient air is drawn into the air intake chamber and directed onto the first portion of electronic components to maintain the first portion of electronic components at a desired operating temperature;
• d. a fan configured to actively draw the ambient air into the air intake chamber through the ambient air inlets and direct the ambient air onto the electronic components;
• e. a first heat sink positioned on a portion of the housing panel, wherein the first heat sink dissipates heat from a portion of the electronic components located proximate the rear portion of the housing;
• and
• f. a second heat sink positioned within the air intake chamber, wherein the heat sink further dissipates heat from the portion of the electronic components located proximate the rear portion of the housing.
