Abstract
A lamp, for general lighting applications, utilizes solid state light emitting sources to produce and distribute white light. The exemplary lamp also includes elements to dissipate the heat generated by the solid state light emitting sources. The lamp includes a thermal handling system having a heat sink and a thermal core made of a thermally conductive material to dissipate the heat generated by the solid state light emitting sources to a point outside the lamp.
