Abstract: A gas discharge lamp power supply having a base, a pair of opposed side walls extending from the base, and opposed first and second end walls extending from the base between the opposed side walls. The first end wall has a sloped wall extending angularly between the side walls, and two input terminals are mounted on the sloped wall. In another embodiment, the power supply has a control with a nonvolatile memory for storing an error code in response to a detected fault condition, thereby permitting the error code to be displayed upon power being removed from and then, subsequently reapplied.

Abstract: A lamp fixture for mounting a high intensity discharge (HID) lamp. The lamp fixture integrates components needed to operate the HID lamp, including a lamp socket and a ballast, into a compact assembly covered by an enclosure. The fixture facilitates dissipation of heat from the lamp and ballast through a base mounting so that thermal insulation of the ballast transformed is not required, thereby reducing the weight of the device. The fixture may further include a diffuser mounted to the enclosure to distribute light from the HID lamp in a uniform manner. The fixture is particularly useful for mounting HID lamps within illuminated signs.
