Also, a lighting device comprising at least one LED, at least one lumiphor, and an optical device, in which if each of the LED(s) is illuminated and each of the lumiphor(s) is excited, at least some of the light emitted from the LED(s) or emitted from the lumiphor(s) travels through at least a first portion of the optical device.
