1. A light emitting diode (LED) lighting module for installation in a light fixture as a replacement for a lamp, said module, comprising:

  • (a) a polyhedral body of highly thermally conductive material, said body having a mounting axis and a plurality of exterior facets disposed about said mounting axis in a substantially polygonal array, each of said facets facing outwardly away from said mounting axis and at a downward angle with respect to said mounting axis;

    (b) a support having an upper end and a lower end, said upper end and said lower end being mutually spaced from one another along said mounting axis, said body being supportably mounted to said upper end of said support, said lower end of said support being adapted to be mechanically coupled to the light fixture;

    (c) a plurality of LEDs, at least one LED of said plurality of LEDs being supportably mounted to each respective one of at least a majority of said facets and thermally conductively coupled to said body, each of said LEDs having an optical axis oriented at an acute angle with respect to said mounting axis, and(d) a plurality of heat dissipating fins supportably mounted to said body and thermally conductively coupled to said body.
