A device has a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs), heat conducting structure that includes a heat pipe and that carries heat from the region of the LEDs to a further location spaced therefrom, and heat dissipating structure that accepts heat from the heat conducting structure at the further location and that discharges the heat externally of the device. In a different embodiment, a device has a radiation generator, a thermal spreader that receives heat emitted by the radiation generator, heat conducting structure that carries heat from the thermal spreader to a location spaced therefrom, and heat dissipating structure that accepts heat at the location from the heat conducting structure and that discharges the heat externally of the device.
