  • Patent number: 12520399
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a horticultural light fixture that determines a number of LED strings contained within a lighting fixture. Voltage and current signals are applied to each detected LED string from a power supply. The magnitudes of the voltage and current signals are adjusted to maintain a power magnitude generated by the power supply to a predetermined threshold.

  • Patent number: 12207604
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for an adaptable vehicle light mount is provided. A recess created within an interior of a heat sink fin array of the vehicle light allows associated mounting hardware to be embedded within the recess. A physical offset between the vehicle light and the associated vehicle may therefore be minimized to provide a shallower mounting profile. A tube may be incorporated into the recess so as to allow one or more vehicle lights to be mounted to a single mount point on a vehicle where the tube and associated mounting hardware are incorporated and function as part of the heat reducing components of the vehicle light.
