Abstract: An electrical discharge lighting apparatus includes: a bulb including a chamber section comprising transparent material and containing a gas that is responsive to electric current to emit light; an ionizing conductor configured and disposed to provide a voltage across the gas to ionize and break down the gas; and an electrode physically separate from the ionizing conductor and configured and disposed to induce a current through the gas.
