ABSTRACT:
A lamp assembly includes a lamp capsule having a tubular lamp envelope, and a reflector disposed around the lamp envelope. The reflector defines an aperture for emission of light from the lamp capsule. The reflector has a reflecting surface facing the lamp envelope. The aperture has a dimension transverse to the longitudinal axis of the lamp envelope that is less than the diameter of the lamp envelope. The reflecting surface preferably has a diffuse reflecting characteristic. The lamp capsule may be a low pressure discharge lamp, such as a neon lamp. The lamp assembly may, for example, be used as a center high mount stop light in a vehicle.
