of LEDs mounted to a substantially planar mounting surface in the housing and electrically
connected to the power supply for producing diverging light, and a threaded electrical
connector extending from the housing. The method includes replacing a conventional
incandescent light bulb with the LED lamp, and installing a Fresnel lens inside
