A light emitting device (1) comprising a light exit surface (41) and at least one light source (5) configured to, in operation, emit light, wherein the light emitting device is configured to provide a light output at the light exit surface (41), the light output comprising at least one peak intensity in a first direction (A) and an intensity cut-off in at least one second direction (B), where the intensity in the at least one second direction (B) is less than 10 % of the peak intensity in the first direction (A), and wherein the light emitting device (1) comprises a plurality of sparkling elements (6) arranged in the optical path of at least a part of the light emitted by the at least one light source (5), at least two sparkling elements of the plurality of sparkling elements (6) being configured and arranged to be visible when observed from a viewing position corresponding to the at least one second direction (B).

A lighting test method that includes connecting a housing including driver electronics and a junction box to a main power source. The main power source is connected to a main power connector in the junction box. The driver electronics includes a first terminal. The method further includes connecting a power testing module to the first terminal to the driver electronics to determine whether the main power source is correctly connected to the main power connector in the junction box. The method further includes replacing the power testing module with a second terminal of a light engine housing. Connecting the first and second terminals provides that the driver electronics are in electrical communication with a light engine within the light engine housing.

A downlight apparatus includes a downlight housing, a drawstring module and a light module. The downlight housing has a surface rim and a downlight holder. The surface rim defines a rim opening. The surface rim conceals an installation cavity. The holder defines a holder space connected to the rim opening. The downlight housing is attached in the installation cavity with a fixing unit. The drawstring module is used for collecting a pullable wire. The pullable wire is electrically connected to a power source. The light module has a light source and a light housing. The light housing is connected to a bottom end of the pullable wire for electrically connecting the power source to the light source. The light module is pulled out from the holder space to an adjustable distance from the rim opening with the pullable wire connecting the light module to the downlight housing.

An LED downlight assembly accommodates square and round trims and its components may be removed irrespective of the presence of mudded in round or square mud plates. The assembly also includes a collar that can be fitted to ceiling of varying thicknesses.

A lighting system includes an LED downlight mountable to a ceiling, a driver, and an insulation displacement connector (IDC). Light from the downlight can be faced downward to project light or upward to reflect light off of the ceiling. The driver has an input with a first voltage and an output with a second voltage, the second voltage being lower than the first and being provided through a wire system extending from the LED driver. The IDC connects the downlight to the wire system. The lighting system can be changed from a first to a second configuration by at least one of adding an additional downlight using a corresponding MC or removing an existing downlight using a corresponding IDC. The second configuration does not significantly affect a desired output range of light from any downlight or any LED circuit of any downlight that remains or preexists from the first configuration.

A system can configure a luminaire for providing illumination of a selected color temperature, a selected lumen output, or a selected photometric distribution. The luminaire can comprise at least two light sources that have different illumination characteristics, for example different color temperatures, different lumen outputs, or different photometric distributions. The system can configure the luminaire to operate a first of the two light sources, a second of the two light sources, or both of the light sources based on an input. When the luminaire is configured to operate both of the light sources, the luminaire can produce illumination having a color temperature, a lumen output, or a photometric distribution that is different than either of the two light sources.

A light emitting apparatus includes a light source, a unitary formed heat sink with a plurality of heat dissipating fins, a lensed enclosure that retains a light source and at least one power consuming device other than the light source The lensed enclosure includes a recessed opening having at least a first wall that terminates at a substantially perpendicular second wall. The plurality of heat dissipating fins are disposed on at least one adjacent exterior side of the walled enclosure, the fins extending outwardly. At least one fin coupled to the heat sink extends beyond the light source, and the heat generated by the light source travels by conduction laterally through the heat sink to the at least one coupled fin.

Inventive methods and apparatus for providing a surface mounted electrical device whereby at least one stem is employed which provides both an electrical connection to a power source as well as the means for mounting. One example of such an electrical device is a ceiling surface-mount luminaire that gives the appearance of a recessed luminaire without requiring the material and cost of a recessed housing. The disclosed invention reduces product cost and increases speed and ease of installation.

A lamp is provided in this disclosure, which includes a lamp body, a light-transmissive cover and a light-emitting strip. An inner wall of the lamp body is provided with a step layer, and the light-emitting strip is installed on the step layer. The step layer is composed of a plurality of annular steps, and the plurality of annular steps decrease in size successively. The light-emitting strip is fixed to a step of the step layer, and a light-emitting surface of the light-emitting strip is disposed towards the light-transmissive cover. A new downlight structure is provided in this disclosure.

Provided is a light fixture comprising: a) a housing; b) a cover for the housing; d) one or more lenses configured to be attached to the cover; and d) a plurality of LED light sources placed inside of the housing to provide a substantially uniform light through the one or more lenses.
