Abstract
A polymer luminaire including a polymer housing having a longitudinal axis. An electrical board is mounted to an inner surface of the housing. The electrical board has an outer surface defining a plane extending at an angle to horizontal when the longitudinal axis of the housing is oriented parallel to horizontal. A light source is mounted to the electrical board and electrically connected to the electrical board for emitting light from the housing.

A polymer luminaire comprising:
- a polymer housing having a longitudinal axis;
- an electrical board mounted to an inner surface of the housing, the electrical board having an outer surface defining a plane extending at an angle to horizontal when the longitudinal axis of the housing is oriented parallel to horizontal;
- clips securing the electrical board to the housing whereby fasteners attaching the clips to the housing extend vertically through the clips and into the housing to secure the clips to the housing when the longitudinal axis of the housing is oriented parallel to horizontal;
- and
- a light source mounted to the electrical board and electrically connected to the electrical board for emitting light from the housing.
A thermally conductive polymer luminaire comprising:
- a polymer housing including at least one thermally conductive filler to configure the polymer housing as a thermally conductive polymer housing, and at least one of a tensile strength filler to improve tensile strength and an impact strength filler to improve impact strength;
- and
- a plurality of electrical components disposed in the housing.
