Abstract: Provided is a specially designed high efficiency optic utilizing Total Internal Reflection (TIR) that collimates light from a typical LED or similar light source. In certain example embodiments the light emitted from a single TIR optic is directed into any of a plurality of interchangeable high-efficiency reflectors that further direct and shape the light beam according to the interaction between the TIR optic and the geometries of the various reflectors. These features work together to efficiently provide a high-quality, substantially-collimated, narrow light beam with high luminous intensity, minimal glare and little to no striations, excellent color rendering, and symmetrical, smooth transitions from beam center to outer edge.
