Disclosed is a method of making an LED light bulb using a plurality of surface mount light emitting diodes mounted on a variety of semiregular polyhedrons and optimizing the number and placement of the surface mount light emitting diodes for the widest lighting angle (to achieve as close to 360-degrees in three dimensions) with a heat sink matched to the thermal output of the surface mount light emitting diodes and the heat conductive capacity of the polyhedron. Also described are a light emitting diode light bulb made using a plurality of surface mount light emitting diodes mounted on a variety of semiregular polyhedrons. Some embodiments may include a heat conductor comprising a plurality of curved-T shaped heat fins.
1) A method of making an LED light bulb comprising:
9) An LED light bulb made using a method comprising the steps of:
11) A light bulb comprising a plurality of surface mount light emitting diodes affixed to a plurality of outside surfaces comprising a semi-regular polyhedron.
13) A heat conductor for use with a plurality of surface mounted light emitting diodes affixed to a semiregular polyhedron comprising a support core, a plurality of curved-T shaped heat fins around the support core, and a plurality of interstitial channels between the plurality of curved-T shaped heat fins.
19) A method of making an LED light bulb comprising:
