    Publication number: 20120008331
    Abstract: Light fixtures including at least an enclosure, a heat sink, and a light-emitting diode. In one embodiment the heat sink has a first portion having fins (that protrudes outside of the enclosure) and a second portion to house and mount the LEDs (that is positioned within the enclosure). Certain embodiments also provide for gaskets and other structure to prevent leakage between the heat sink and the enclosure, such that the light fixture is water-resistant. Thus, embodiments of the light fixture may house LEDs and related electric components inside a water-resistant enclosure and cool those components by transferring thermal energy to the surrounding air.
