Abstract
A lighting fixture including a housing having an exterior wall with interior and exterior surfaces, a tray contained in the housing, at least one heat-sensitive component contained in the housing, and a mount secured to the tray supporting the heat-sensitive component. The mount maintains the heat-sensitive component in thermal contact with the interior surface of the exterior wall of the housing, thereby facilitating dissipation of heat from the heat-sensitive component through the exterior wall of the housing.
