ABSTRACT:
A lighting assembly employs LED lamps and associated side-emitting lenses that each redirect the light generated by the associated LED lamp to provide a distribution of emitted light substantially normal to an axis of symmetry of the lens. In a basic embodiment, the lighting assembly employs two lenses in a stacked configuration, with one lens being inverted. The lighting assembly has two plates, to which the lenses and LED lamps attach, and the plates are attached together by a cylinder to form a sealed enclosure for the lenses and LED lamps. When increased light intensity is desired, an additional plate and cylinder can be added to form an additional enclosure, housing additional LED lamps and lenses. Further enclosures can be formed by additional plates and cylinders.
