Abstract
A lighting device () is provided which comprises a light guide (), a metal strip (), a solid state light source () and a base () for mounting the lighting device. The base includes an electrical interface. The light guide extends along a plane (). The metal strip extends at least partly around the light guide along a surface () of the light guide. The metal strip is arranged in thermal contact with the surface of the light guide. The solid state light source is arranged in thermal contact with the metal strip and is arranged to emit light into the light guide. The light guide serves to increase a light emitting area of the lighting device and to dissipate heat. The metal strip allows heat generated by the solid state light source to be transferred to the light guide.
