1. A light generating device comprising:
(i) a light source, wherein the light source comprises a solid state light source,
(ii) a support for the light source,
(iii) a housing comprising a housing wall, and
(iv) a thermally conductive element; wherein the support is a monolithic support,
wherein the support comprises at least two support parts which are configured bent relative to each other, wherein a first support part of the at least two support parts is configured to support the light source, and wherein a second support part of the at least two support parts is associated to one or more of the housing wall and the thermally conductive element and configured in thermal contact with the thermally conductive element, wherein the support is thermally conductive;
wherein the second support part is in physical contact with the housing wall and/or the thermally conductive element;
wherein the second support part is configured in an interference fit with the thermally conductive element; and wherein at least part of the thermally conductive element has a shape conformal to a shape of the housing wall; and
wherein the second support part is configured to be placed between the housing wall and the thermally conductive element.
