Abstract
A light emitting diode lighting system comprising a plate having an exterior periphery and a central generally circular attachment zone of a reduced circumference. The plate has an upper surface with a plurality of mounting areas thereon. The mounting areas include a plurality of mounting areas in a generally circular exterior array adjacent to the exterior periphery and a generally circular interior array around the attachment zone and at least one circular intermediate arrays there between. A plurality of light emitters have light emitting upper areas and with lower areas formed with electrical leads for illuminating the upper areas with intermediate securement means there between. Each of the light emitters is secured within an associated mounting area on the plate. A reflector is in a generally truncated cone-shaped configuration with a central axis perpendicular to the plate and a generally circular smaller end of a reduced circumference positioned within the attachment zone of the circular plate and with a generally circular upper end of an enlarged circumference positioned above the plate. An intermediate surface is there between. The intermediate surface of the reflector has a continually diminishing circumference from its upper end to its lower end and is located entirely above the light emitters and with the reflector and plate having a common axis there through.
