Abstract
A retrofit light fixture for retrofitting an existing strip-style light fixture includes a housing, a light emitting diode, a driver, and a bracket. The housing includes a top portion, a side portion, and an end cap, and the housing defines an interior space. At least one of the top portion and the side portion define an elongated opening. The bracket includes a locking flange configured to selectively engage with a portion of a housing of the existing strip-style light fixture. The bracket is slidably coupled to the housing with a fastener that extends through the elongated opening. The bracket is selectively repositionable between a disengaged orientation and an engaged orientation, and the bracket is configured to interface with a portion of the existing strip-style light fixture and thereby secure the retrofit light fixture in place when selectively repositioned into the disengaged orientation.
