Patent ID: 8777453

Claim:
A kit for retrofitting an existing high intensity discharge lamp in a fixture for conversion to an LED light output unit, comprising: a mounting plate with heat sink characteristics and configure for thermal contact with said fixture, said mounting plate serving as a platform for placement of kit components, with said mounting plate shaped for engagement and attachment with a selected fixture; a driver for supplying power to one or more LED light sources; one or more LED light sources; a heat sink separate from said mounting plate; a dimmer unit, for adjusting the power to said one or more LED replacement; a sensor linked to said dimmer unit, to adjust the power to said one or more LED light sources based on a sensed input; and a thermal sensor connected to said dimmer unit, for detecting heat overloads and reducing power to said one or more LED light sources to keep said replacement LED light sources within thermal limits; with each of said LED light units wirelessly connected to other LED light units in a network via said wireless communication unit, with each LED light unit forming a node in said network, capable of initiating action and transferring data to and/or from other LED light units in the network and to a base computer.
