There is disclosed a light emitting device which includes a header and an angle stripe light emitting diode. The header has a longitudinal axis and a forward mounting surface. The forward mounting surface includes a leading edge portion which extends perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The mounting surface further includes a trailing alignment edge portion which extends rearwardly from the leading edge portion at a predetermined compensating angle. The light emitting diode is affixed in electrical and heat transfer relation to the mounting surface of the header such that the emitting facet is aligned with the trailing alignment edge portion of the header. The trailing alignment edge portion compensates for the offset angle that light is emitted from a stripe light emitting diode. |
