ABSTRACT:
A miniature discharge lamp tube holder having clamp, and stake is disclosed. The miniature discharge lamp tube holder snaps to the mid section of a small diameter discharge lamp, and has a stake end that may be inserted into a formed hole in the lamp housing, or may be pressed directly, or with the help of heat, into the body of the lamp housing to thereby securely couple to the lamp housing, and securely clam to the lamp housing. The one piece support is easily installed, and still accurately holds the lamp. The support allows easy insertion and removal of the lamp, acts to dampen lamp vibration, and allows the tube to slide axially during thermal expansion and contraction. The support also minimizes the dark spot caused while holding the lamp, and minimally interferes with projected light.
