First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed: 1 . A luminaire comprising: a housing having a top wall, a side wall, and a first mounting feature; and a light emitter assembly having a second mounting feature configured to connect to the first mounting feature so that the light emitter can be selectively connected to the housing in multiple orientations. 2 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the light emitter assembly includes a heat sink containing the second mounting feature. 3 . The luminaire of claim 2 , wherein the housing includes a first heat fin and the heat sink includes a second heat fin configured to nest with the first heat fin. 4 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the light emitter assembly can be rotated in increments of 90 degrees. 5 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the first mounting feature includes bosses for receiving a fastener. 6 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the light emitter assembly includes an LED board, a gasket, a bezel, and one or more optics connected to a heat sink. 7 . The luminaire of claim 6 , wherein the orientation of the light emitter assembly can be changed without removing the LED board, the gasket, the bezel, and the optics form the heat sink. 8 . The luminaire of claim 1 , further comprising an arm removably connected to the housing. 9 . A luminaire comprising: a housing having a first compartment for receiving a control component and a second compartment; a wall separating the first compartment and the second compartment; a mounting portion positioned in the second compartment; a plurality of heat fins in thermal communication with the mounting portion; and a light emitter assembly connected to the mounting portion. 10 . The luminaire of claim 9 , wherein openings are provided between the mounting portion and an edge of the housing and one or more of the heat fins extend over the openings an connect to the edge. 11 . The luminaire of claim 9 , further comprising a cover connected to the housing and positioned over the second compartment. 12 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein a boss extends from the mounting portion and a projection extends from the cover aligned with the boss. 13 . The luminaire of claim 12 , wherein the projection includes a heat fin. 14 . The luminaire of claim 13 , wherein the mounting portion includes a channel.
