Abstract
A power supply for use with an associated light bar assembly suitable for use at a warning light on an emergency vehicle that includes a generally planar printed circuit board having at least one discrete component mounted thereon. A power supply housing surrounds the printed circuit board and includes a generally planar heat sink plate. The heat sink plate is disposed in generally parallel relationship to the printed circuit board and is disposed in thermal conduction relationship with respect to a discrete component. A fastener extends through the discrete component to urge the printed circuit board and the generally planar member together. The discrete component may be a MOSFET.
