ABSTRACT:
In the system disclosed, a transformer connected to an alternating power source establishes a continuous alternating output voltage which is connected directly across a gas discharge lamp to apply the voltage continuously across the lamp. The transformer output voltage is set within a range which includes a condition that causes the lamp to exhibit a positive impedance value when the lamp is discharging. The transformer and the source together exhibit an impedance substantially less than the impedance value of the discharging lamp.
