Abstract
A liquid-filled light emitting diode (LED) bulb including a base, a shell, one or more LEDs, a thermally conductive liquid, and a bladder. The shell is connected to the base and the thermally conductive liquid is held within the shell. The one or more LEDs are disposed within the shell and immersed in the thermally conductive liquid. The bladder is also immersed in the thermally conductive liquid and is configured to compensate for expansion of the thermally conductive liquid.
