Provided is a decontamination apparatus and method involving a base, and a plurality of sources that each emit UVC light to render a target object pathogen reduced. A plurality of adjustable supports couple the sources to the base, and a controller is coupled to the base to be operatively connected to the sources to control emission of the UVC light. A housing is removably installed on the base to protect the plurality of sources. A remote control is provided to the housing and includes a user interface that receives a input from a user and transmits a control instruction to the controller based on the input received, resulting in desired operation of the sources by the controller.

A new light apparatus (such as LED lamps) and lamp caps (30) for connecting the light apparatus to corresponding lighting fixtures for operation at higher voltages with existing lighting fixtures, by using modified caps (30) comprising groove/gap (32) patterns in the insulating materials of the caps (30). The new and/or improved lighting sources/light tubes operating at a higher voltage using the same interface caps (30) may require a larger minimum creepage distance between power coupling electrodes/pins (22a,22b). This can be accomplished by adding one or more grooves or gaps (32) of predefined dimensions in the electrically insulating materials on surface of cap (30) in a vicinity of the at least two conductive elements/electric pins (22a,22b). The light apparatus utilizing a same or a different lighting technology but operating at a higher operating voltage than the original/legacy light apparatus.

An LED lamp is configured to be connected to a leakage protection switch. The LED lamp includes one or more light emitting diodes, a control circuit, a light board and an enclosure. The control circuit is configured to be coupled to the leakage protection switch by a hot connector and a neutral connector. The light board is a printed circuit board that includes a track that surrounds a light module. A branch of the hot connector is directly coupled to the track and the light module is coupled to the control circuit by a hot line and a neutral line. The enclosure supports the control circuit and the light board. When water contacts the track, at least a portion of a current flowing through the hot connector enters a ground conductor, thereby causing the leakage protection switch to electrically disconnect the LED lamp from a power supply.

A outdoor lighting fixture includes an enclosure, a heatsink, and an end-cap. The enclosure includes a cabinet and a cover that enclose control and power circuitry to provide power to illuminate a light source. The cabinet further includes an attachment face, and the extruded heatsink can be coupled to the attachment face. The extruded heatsink includes sides, a discontinuous plane of material formed with sides of the heatsink to provide a recessed mounting tray, and heat-conducting fins extending from the plane of material. The light source, which can include an LED light source, is coupled to the heatsink. The extruded heatsink can be coupled at one end to the attachment face of the cabinet at a position such that a space remains between the plane of material and a bottom edge of the attachment face, to permit water to drain from between the heat-conducting fins of the extruded heatsink.

A light-emitting diode apparatus (100) comprises a light-emitting diode element (102) having a front (106) and a back (128), wherein the front (106) has an emission region (108) for emitting electromagnetic waves (110) and a diode connection contact (112) that is associated with the emission region (108), and comprises a printed circuit board (104) having a passage opening (114) and a plate connection contact (118), wherein the front (106) of the light-emitting diode element (102) is connected to the printed circuit board (104), and wherein the emission region (108) is arranged opposite the passage opening (114) and the diode connection contact (112) is arranged opposite the plate connection contact (118) and is electrically conductively connected to the plate connection contact (118). A cover unit (120) having a recess (122) for holding the light-emitting diode element (102) is connected to the printed circuit board (104), wherein the cover unit (120) is formed from a further printed circuit board.

A light hanging system is described. The system employs a channel and a housing configured to slide into the channel. The housing is further configured to receive, retain and suspend at least one set of decorative lights. The channel is configured to be mounted either directly or in conjunction with at least one channel mount, to a gutter or soffit portion of a building structure.

A bracket mount assembly includes a mounting plate and a base assembly. The mounting plate includes a mounting aperture. The mounting aperture has an aperture cross-sectional width. The base assembly includes a first fastener and a second fastener. A first width is defined as a width between the first and second fasteners proximal to a first end of the base assembly. A second width is defined as a width between the first and second fasteners proximal to a second, opposing end of the primary fastener. A third width is defined as a width between the first and second fasteners at a point between the first and second ends of the primary fastener. The third width is greater than each of the first width, the second width and the aperture cross-sectional width.

Disclosed is a downlight (100) comprising an annular mounting frame (50) to be mounted in the area of a ceiling mounting hole, and a light fixture (10) that is to be fastened to the mounting frame (50) and includes a luminaire head (30) thereon. The mounting frame (50) and the light fixture (10) are designed such that the light fixture (10) is fastened to the mounting frame (50) by twisting the former (10) relative to the latter (50), additional securing means being provided which prevent the light fixture (10) from being twisted in the unlocking direction in a mounted position.

A holder is provided to support a light emitting diode (LED) array in position. In an embodiment the holder includes a terminal that is insert-molded into a housing. In an alternative embodiment, a terminal can be stitch into a housing and secured with a shield. In the latter embodiment the holder can be configured to provide a desired amount of electrical isolation between the terminal and potential shorting surfaces so as to meet creepage and clearance requirements, thus allowing the use of additional power supplies.
