Abstract

A directional canopy luminaire that can be easily and quickly adjusted to direct light from a canopy toward a particular target area without scattering light to unintended areas. The luminaire includes an outer housing having an aperture, a directional support rotatably mounted within the outer housing, an inner support pivotally affixed to the directional support, and a light supporting means. The light supporting means is typically configured to support a replaceable lamp that is electrically connectable to an electric power source. Light can be aimed in any desired direction through the aperture of the luminaire by pivoting into a position the directional support and the inner support.
