An installation mechanism of LED lighting includes a house and a mounting plate. The house includes a mounting slot provided on a side wall along a radial direction thereof. The mounting slot includes a implantation portion and a catch portion communicating with the implantation portion. The catch portion includes at least one catching arm provided on one of two opposite side walls thereof. The mounting plate includes two catch edges inserted in the catch portion. The implantation portion is configured for presetting the mounting plate. Each of the catch edge has a Z-typed shape in a cross section of the mounting plate along the axial direction thereof. A free edge of the Z-typed catch edge is inserted into a gap between the catching arm and the bottom of the mounting slot.

A method for a light bulb or fixture to emit light and measure ambient light. The method includes driving solid state light sources, such as LEDs, in the bulb with a cyclical signal to repeatedly turn them off and on, where the light sources are turned off and on at a rate sufficient for the bulb to appear on. The method also includes measuring ambient light via a light sensor in or on the bulb during at least some times when the light sources are off, and outputting a signal related to the measured ambient light. In some cases the light sensor saturates when the solid state light sources are active and measures the ambient light level when the solid state light sources are not active. The ambient light level signal can be used to control when the light bulb is on and an intensity of light output by the bulb.
