Abstract
Described is a device which includes a housing, a chimney and a heat dissipation element. The housing includes at least one heat generating electric component mounted within an interior space thereof. The chimney extends from a proximal end surrounding a space adjacent to the at least one component through an opening in the housing to a distal end outside the housing. The heat dissipation element is attached to the distal end of the chimney and separated from the housing so that heat from the at least one component travels through the chimney to the heat dissipation element from which it is dissipated.
