Abstract: A mount for an LED lighting assembly includes a length adjusting shaft having releasable engagement features that allow the length to be adjusted to a desired length, but also the be released and readjusted as needed. The length adjusting shaft can include an external release disposed outside the housing of the LED lighting assembly that is coupled to the releasable engagement and is configured to release the releasable engagement from the adjustment features through a housing of the LED lighting assembly.

Abstract: An LED lighting assembly including a sidewall having an outer periphery with a dimension exceeding a maximum opening dimension of a standard-sized light bulb ceiling recess; at least one LED at least partially disposed within the sidewall; a plurality of heat dissipating fins between the sidewall and the LED; and a plurality of air flow channels, each having an air flow intake port defined by a lower portion of the sidewall and at least one of the heat dissipating fins; and an air flow exhaust port defined by an upper portion of the sidewall and at least one of the heat dissipating fins. Heat generated by the LED is transferred to the heat dissipating fins so as to drive a continuous flow of air into the air flow intake port and out of the corresponding air flow exhaust port of each of the air flow channels.

Abstract: A ceiling mounted lighting assembly is disclosed having a below-the-ceiling junction box with a ceiling-mounting surface and a light socket disposed at least partially within the below-the-ceiling junction box; a terminal block disposed at least partially within the below-the-ceiling junction box and electrically couplable to the light socket; and at least one fastener coupled to the ceiling-mounting surface and extending in a direction away from the ceiling-mounting surface.
