The device includes a collar having a first end. The first end is open wherein the collar is configured for receiving an extension pole into the first end. A plate is coupled to a second end of the collar. The plate has a planar upper surface. Each of a plurality of projections is coupled to and extends outwardly from the upper surface of the plate wherein the projections are configured for extending through gaps in a heat sink portion of an LED light when the LED light rests on the upper surface of the plate. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An LED light installation device comprising: a collar having a first end, said first end being open wherein said collar is configured for receiving an extension pole into said first end; a plate coupled to a second end of said collar, said plate having an upper surface, said upper surface being planar; a plurality of projections coupled to and extending outwardly from said upper surface of said plate wherein said projections are configured for extending through gaps in a heat sink portion of an LED light when the LED light rests on said upper surface of said plate. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, further comprising said projections extending transversely from said upper surface of said plate. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, further comprising said plate being square. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The device of claim 3, further comprising each of said projections extending from said plate proximate a respective corner of said plate. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, further comprising: a coupler having a pair of threaded end sections; a second end of said collar being open and threaded wherein said coupler is couplable to said second end of said collar; a central aperture extending into a bottom surface of said plate, said central aperture being threaded wherein said coupler is couplable to said plate such that said plate is coupled to said collar. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The device of claim 5, further comprising a medial section of said coupler having a plurality of planar faces parallel to a longitudinal axis of said coupler wherein a cross-sectional shape of said medial section transverse to the longitudinal axis is polygonal. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, further comprising a locking member coupled to said collar, said locking member being extendable into said open first end wherein said locking member is configured to secure said collar to the extension pole. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, further comprising each of said projections being removable from said plate. ### Claim 9 (depends on 1) The device of claim 1, further comprising each of said projections having a threaded bottom portion threadingly engageable to an associated threaded hole extending into said upper surface of said plate. ### Claim 10 (depends on 5) The device of claim 5, further comprising: said central aperture extending fully through said plate; and an end face of said coupler being flush with said upper surface of said plate. ### Claim 11 An LED light installation device comprising: a collar having a first end, said first end being open wherein said collar is configured for receiving an extension pole into said first end; a plate coupled to a second end of said collar, said plate having an upper surface, said upper surface being planar; a plurality of projections coupled to and extending outwardly from said upper surface of said plate wherein said projections are configured for extending through gaps in a heat sink portion of an LED light when the LED light rests on said upper surface of said plate, each of said projections being removable from said plate, said projections extending transversely from said upper surface of said plate, each of said projections extending from said plate proximate a respective corner of said plate, each of said projections having a threaded bottom portion threadingly engageable to an associated threaded hole extending into said upper surface of said plate; a coupler having a pair of threaded end sections; a second end of said collar being open and threaded wherein said coupler is couplable to said second end of said collar; a central aperture extending into a bottom surface of said plate, said central aperture being threaded wherein said coupler is couplable to said plate such that said plate is coupled to said collar, said central aperture extending fully through said plate; an end face of said coupler being flush with said upper surface of said plate; a medial section of said coupler having a plurality of planar faces parallel to a longitudinal axis of said coupler wherein a cross-sectional shape of said medial section transverse to the longitudinal axis is polygonal; and a locking member coupled to said collar, said locking member being extendable into said open first end wherein said locking member is configured to secure said collar to the extension pole.
