Abstract
In one embodiment, the solid-state lighting apparatus includes a solid-state light source. The solid-state light source may include a first side and a second side opposite the first side, with the first side including at least one solid-state lighting element. The solid-state lighting apparatus may also include a junction box. The junction box may be positioned at least partially above the solid-state light source, proximate the second side of the solid-state light source. The solid-state lighting apparatus may further include a heat sink. The heat sink may be coupled to the junction box and thermally coupled to the solid-state light source.
