Wild Ideas Light Company lauds SinkPAD’s new technology

Jul 18, 2011

Lighting Innovator Ian Osborn calls it “Fastest Heat Moving Technology on the market.

SinkPAD Corporation’s customer Wild Ideas Light Company today expressed their appreciation for SinkPAD’s PCB cooling technology. Wild Ideas Company’s Chief Engineer and inventor Ian Osborn stated, “We in the modern lighting industry are constantly faced with heat dissipation and cooling issues, it is just a necessary evil in our business. SinkPAD’s new cooling technology is by far the best product on the market for cooling. This technology moves heat faster than anything else I have ever used. The product is especially effective when moving heat from the critical junctures of our products. SinkPAD’s cooling technology has literally solved our heat problems”

SinkPAD corporation’s new thermal management printed circuit boards are a complete and effective solution to the challenges faced by the solid state lighting industry, specifically those with high power LED PCB applications.

Available now, the new SinkPADTM technology significantly improves LED thermal management in all LED systems. It is most effective in high-power high-bright surface mount LED systems for commercial applications.

SinkPADTM conducts heat out of the LED system (LED cooling) by enabling a direct thermal path between the LED and surrounding atmosphere, which eliminates thermal resistance introduced by the dielectric material in a traditional IMS PCB or MCPCB. The SinkPADTM design completely removes the substance with the lowest thermal conductivity/highest thermal resistance from the structure. SinkPADTM still uses a dielectric, but this dielectric isolates the metal base electrically and leaves it thermally connected.  The thermal path should be electrically neutral within the LED package, i.e. Cree XLamp, Luxeon Rebel from Philips Lumiled, PhlatLight from Luminus, in order to solder the LED directly to the SinkPADTM.


SinkPAD Corporation is an innovative thermal management company addressing the thermal challenges facing the electronics industry. The company’s patent pending PCB technology makes it possible to conduct heat out of the LED system and into the atmosphere quickly and cost effectively while providing their customers with a first-to-market competitive advantage.

Wild Ideas Light Company specializes in the custom design and manufacturing of high-intensity, long-life, and light - emitting diode (LED) modules. The modules consist of color-specific LED’s that provide the most natural-looking light.
