ABSTRACT:
An electronic ballast for use with fluorescent lamps including an inverter circuit for converting a direct current power source to a high voltage alternating current and starting means to inhibit operation of one of the inverter transistors until such time as fluorescent lamp is turned on. The circuitry taught eliminates substantial drain usually found at start up of inverter circuits due to the large capacitors usually found in such circuitry.
