ABSTRACT:
In order to spread the light being emitted from an LED, an LED light spreader has a light conductive end, an optical path conversion side, and a light transmitting side. The present invention enables a single LED to simulate the effect of having several discrete LEDs on a circuit board or may be configured to give the effect of having a single elongated light source.
