Abstract:
In a lighting device adapted to be mounted on a vehicle, a PTC (positive temperature coefficient) thermistor (535), a first fixed resistor (R1), and a first light emitting element (531) are connected in series with a voltage source. A heat conduction suppressor (7) is configured to suppress heat conduction from the first fixed resistor (R1) to the PTC thermistor (535).
