Abstract
An LED light engine includes an electrical conductor, a flexible, electrically insulating covering surrounding the electrical conductor, and an LED. The electrical conductor includes a plurality of conductive elements. A connector is mechanically secured to the flexible insulating covering and electrically contacts the electrical conductor. In one embodiment, the LED electrically contacts the electrical conductor and is mechanically secured to the insulating covering. Alternatively, the LED electrically contacts the electrical conductor and is mechanically secured to the insulating covering via the connector.
