Abstract:
A beacon lamp which may find use in and around airports, communication towers, etc. The beacon lamp includes a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) its as light source. The plurality of LEDs can be mounted on an LED module which is in turn secured to a base. A transparent outer cover is provided to cover the plurality of LEDs. The LED module can include heat fins to enhance heat sinking properties. The outer cover and base can also include portions to improve free air convection to also improve heat sinking properties. The LEDs may be connected in parallel to provide redundancy in the event that certain LEDs burn out. The beacon lamp is also structured to allow the outer cover to be easily removed from the base to access the LED modules, to allow easy relamping of the beacon lamp.
