  • Patent number: 9363953
    Abstract: A grow light housing with passive cooling, including a shell having a reflective interior surface, a lower opening for directing light downwardly onto plants, and at least one ventilation opening in an upper portion. A grow light socket is coupled to the housing so as to position a grow light directly below the ventilation opening, and a reflective baffle is interposed between the ventilation opening and the grow light bulb. The baffle is spaced apart from the ventilation opening and housing interior surface so as to form a gap through which heated air may escape. The reflective baffle is configured in such a way that incident light is reflected away from the ventilation opening, into the housing interior space and either directly out the housing opening or indirectly out the housing opening after first reflecting off the reflective interior surface of the housing shell.
