The present invention relates to luminaires and, in particular, to luminaires comprising light emitting diodes. In one embodiment, the present invention provides a luminaire comprising at least one light emitting diode, a reflector offset from the centerline of the luminaire and a collimator adapted to direct light from the least one light emitting diode along an axis offset from the vertical axis of the light emitting diode.

Light emitting diode luminaires and applications thereof

Collimators and methods of making collimators. According to certain embodiments a collimator may be used with a light source, where the light source emits light along a light source axis. The base of the collimator may be angled such that the collimator refracts the light in a direction that is angled relative to the light source axis. There may also be provided methods for making a collimator. According to one method, a mold is first provided that produces an uncut collimator having an extended portion. The uncut collimator may be cut at an angle to produce a collimator with an angled base. In another method, there may be a mold with a base cavity, and a wedge may be inserted in the base cavity. The wedge forms a collimator with an angled base.
