Low Voltage Ignition Sealed Beam Xenon Lamp

Abstract

The task was to modify an existing 1.0 Kilowatt sealed beam lamp from the standard high voltage pulse starting to a low voltage mechanical starting arrangement. Problems in the lamp development were met and solved. The program was not successful because of problems encountered with the associated circuitry which was developed elsewhere. It was also concluded that the lamp design was marginal. Suggestions for a different approach to the problem are given. (Author)
