Abstract

An apparatus and method is disclosed for regulating the cold spot temperature of a light emitting enclosure. A cold spot regulation system defines and controls the temperature of the cold spot. The cold spot regulation system includes an interface housing secured to the light emitting enclosure and two ducts extending from the interface housing. The cold spot regulation system uses a coolant fluid to lower the operating temperature of the light emitting enclosure. The coolant fluid is diverted into one of the ducts. The coolant fluid is passed by the cold spot of the light emitting enclosure and released out the other duct.
