Abstract
A luminaire comprising a light source comprising a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) and a combination heat spreader and heat sink disposed in thermal communication with the light source such that the combination heat spreader and heat sink facilitates transfer of heat away from the LEDs. The combination heat spreader and heat sink have an outer dimension that is larger than an opening defined by a nominally sized can light fixture and an opening defined by a nominally sized electrical junction box. A back surface of the combination heat spreader and heat sink is configured to permit the luminaire to be flush mounted on the mounting surface.
