Abstract

A lighting system for providing high intensity lighting may include an LED system and a control system that controls the LED system based on a determined temperature to ensure that a minimum acceptable lighting value is provided at all times while thermally protecting the LED system. The high output lighting system has a lamp or luminaire equipped with the LED system producing a thermally regulated LED lighting system well suited for indoor and/or outdoor lighting applications such as portable and other light towers.
