Abstract
A lighting device having a support module comprising a disk for supporting LEDs and having an outer perimeter with a curved portion and a housing with an inner surface having a curved portion configured to receive the curved portion of the support module disk so that the disk can be aimed by external adjustment devices with the curved portions of the disk and housing remaining in contact. The external adjustment device facilitates aiming of the disk without the need to open the sealed LED module. Heat from the LEDs and/or LED mounting assembly can be transferred via the contact of the curved surfaces to the outside air while the module is tilted, e.g., up to 15 degrees, or more, from vertical.
Claims22
