Abstract: In various embodiments, a device for dimming a light source is provided. The device may include a two-wire power supply line having interposed therein a switch for controlling transfer of the power supply towards the light source; a capacitance located downstream of the switch being traversed by a charge current as the switch is switched on; and a pre-charge stage interposed between the switch and the capacitance; the pre-charge stage being configured to limit to a given value the charge current.

Abstract: A lighting module may include a printed circuit board carrying at least one light source, a reflector body to direct light from said at least one light source towards a distal opening of said reflector body, said reflector body having a bottom portion with first snap-in coupling formations coupling said printed circuit board to the bottom portion of said reflector body, and an optical holder carrying at least one lens to focus light from said at least one light source, said optical holder having second snap-in coupling formations coupling said optical holder to the bottom portion of said reflector body.

Abstract: A method of compensating the degradation of the luminous intensity due to aging in a light source by controlling a power supply signal of said light source. The method may include: detecting the temperature of said light source; determining a parameter representative of the aging of said light source as a function of said temperature; and varying said power supply signal as a function of said parameter representative of the aging of the light source.

Abstract: A lighting module includes a base plate for fixing to a mounting surface, and a reflector body carrying a printed circuit board with one or more electrical light sources such as high power LEDs. The printed circuit board (includes electrical contact pins to the electrical light sources. The base plate and the reflector body are provided with complementary coupling formations for snap-like coupling the base plate and the reflector body with an electrical line interposed in between for feeding the light sources with the electrical contact pins electrically contacting the electrical line. The module may include force-generating formations to urge the printed circuit board against the base plate to promote heat transfer in between.
