1. A warning light comprising:
- a housing having a base and a translucent cover;
an array of light emitting diodes extending along a linear axis within the housing, the light emitting diodes each operable to emit light substantially along parallel output axes; and
a reflector resident within the housing, the reflector including a reflective surface extending parallel to the linear axis formed by the array of light emitting diodes and having a curve section disposed substantially perpendicularly to the parallel optical output axes of the array of light emitting diodes, the reflective surface including a plurality of parabolic reflective regions, each of the plurality of parabolic reflective regions configured to reflect at least a portion of light from one or more of the light emitting diodes in the array of light emitting diodes in a direction generally perpendicular to the parallel output axes and toward the translucent cover.

Abstract
A warning light and warning light assembly are disclosed. The warning light includes a housing including a base and a translucent cover. The warning light includes one or more light emitting diodes within the housing, each of the light emitting diodes operable to emit light substantially along an optical output axis. The warning light also includes a reflector within the housing, the reflector including a reflective surface having a curve section disposed substantially perpendicular to the optical output axis of at least one of the one or more light emitting diodes.
