ABSTRACT:
A screw-in fluorescent light unit having two light levels, for use in a 3-way socket. A reactor ballasts the lamp for high light output, and a positive temperature coefficient resistor (thermistor) is added to ballast the lamp for low light output and to facilitate lamp starting at the low light output. The light-level sequence is off-high-low-high-off.
