Abstract
A luminaire comprising a heat spreader and a heat sink disposed around and thermally communicates with the heat spreader. The heat sink forms a trim plate configured to be disposed completely external of a can light fixture or an electrical junction box. The luminaire also includes an optic securely retained relative to one of the heat spreader and the heat sink on one side of a plane defined by a lower surface of the trim plate and extends to the other side of the plane defined by the lower surface of the trim plate, as well as a light source disposed on the heat spreader and comprising a plurality of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). The plurality of LEDs are positioned entirely on one side of the plane defined by the lower surface of the trim plate. The light source is in thermal communication with the heat spreader.
