Abstract
An improved low profile light is provided. The low profile light includes one or more solid state light sources and a cover disposed in relation thereto, such that light emitted from the light sources passes through the cover. The low profile light also includes a driver, in a driver housing, that provides electrical power to the light sources. The low profile light also includes a housing. The housing includes a central portion with a first side and a second side; a lip that extends around an outer edge of the housing; a cover receptacle to receive the cover; an outer face that extends from the lip inward towards the cover receptacle; an inner surface that extends downward away from the central portion and upward towards the lip, so as to form a valley; and a fin that extends perpendicularly up from the central portion.
