ABSTRACT:
One embodiment of the current invention seeks to increase heat dissipation in solid state lights used in track lighting systems, by utilizing a track with a fluid channel. Convective heat transfer within this fluid channel acts to dissipate more heat than can be typically dissipated by conventional solid state lights themselves, thus allowing for brighter, higher-powered lights. The track and fluid channel can take on various forms.
