Abstract
Lighting apparatus and structures are described that are adapted for installation in housings. The housings can be pre-existing ones, such as those installed for high-intensity discharge (HID) or other types of lighting. The lighting apparatus can include a light unit (e.g., luminaire) with desired type of light source(s), for example, an array of LEDs. The apparatus can include structures that are adapted for use with the housings such that installation of a light unit requires a minimum of user effort and time. Such lighting apparatus, and related installation methods, can accordingly provide for high-efficiency lighting. Related assembly and installation techniques are also described.
