Abstract:
1. A lighting assembly comprising: a plurality of lighting assembly modules each including a printed circuit board, one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs) disposed on the printed circuit board and connectable with electrical connectors disposed with the printed circuit board via circuitry of the printed circuit board, and a free-standing high thermal conductivity material overmolding that covers at least portions of the printed circuit board proximate to the one or more LEDs, the free-standing high thermal conductivity material having a melting temperature greater than about 100° C. and having a thermal conductivity greater than or about 1 W/m·K; and flexible electrical conductors interconnecting the lighting assembly modules via the electrical connectors to define a flexible LED-based lighting string.
