Abstract: A multi-flash strobe light pattern is superimposed on each individual light pulse produced by an incandescent lamp to provide a warning signal of enhanced visibility in a particulate laden ambient environment. The first pulse of each multi-flash strobe pattern is delayed for a time period, subsequent to energization of the incandescent lamp, which is equal to at least 80% of the time required for the incandescent lamp to achieve its maximum light output intensity.

Abstract: A dual emitter light assembly employs a reflector having a pair of concave reflector dishes. Each dish is associated with a lamp socket. Each concave dish comprises at least three parabolic reflector surfaces having a common focal point. The axes of the parabolas of revolution which define the reflector surfaces are non-parallel and lie in a common plane, the axis of both dishes lying in the same plane.

Abstract: A warning light having a wide angle radiation pattern and the ability to accept either an incandescent lamp or gaseous discharge tube as the light source is disclosed. The wide angle radiation pattern is, in part, achieved through the use a reflector having three separate surfaces which define parabolas with different axes and a common focal point, two of these parabolic reflector surfaces being spacially separated from one another and extending from the third reflective surface. The light emitter is supported from the third parabolic reflector surface such that the lamp filament or the gaseous discharge tube will extend through the common focal point.
