  • Patent number: 6873120
    Abstract: A power controller for the regulation of power consumption by gas pressurized vapor lamps includes a series of stages that steps down power being applied to the lamp without a significant loss of luminescence. Once the gas vapor has been heated to achieve luminescence, the power can be decreased based on several criteria including time, luminescence, and gas temperature. By removing the excess power being applied to the lamp, the same luminescence can be maintained using significantly less energy.
