  • High ambient temperature LED luminaire with thermal compensation circuitry
    Patent number: 10278249
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for powering a light fixture to provide a constant light output. In one embodiment, the method includes providing a current to one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs), monitoring an external ambient temperature and increasing the current to the one or more LEDs as the external ambient temperature rises to maintain the constant light output.
    Type: Grant

  • Remotely distributed power network for an LED lighting system
    Patent number: 9271373
    Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to a light emitting diode (LED) lighting system. In one embodiment, the LED lighting system includes an LED light source deployed in a first location and a power supply for powering the LED light source, wherein the power supply is remotely located from the LED light source in a second location and designed to power the LED light source to minimize a power loss along a length of an electrical connection coupled between the LED light source and the power supply.
