Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for the regulated temperature control of a gas discharge lamp, and a gas discharge lamp. The device according to the invention includes a transformer core of a transformer, the transformer core being designed for accommodating at least one discharge current-conducting connecting line of the gas discharge lamp as a primary winding. The transformer forms an energy source for heating a functional area of the gas discharge lamp that determines a function of the gas discharge lamp, and that is formed by an amalgam reservoir. The device also includes a secondary winding on the transformer core, and a means for temperature control that is used to regulate the energy that heats the amalgam reservoir. The means for temperature control is electrically connected to the secondary winding.

Abstract: A fluorescent lighting device includes an arc tube, an exhaust tube extending from the arc tube, and an amalgam. A resistive heater is located adjacent to at least one of the arc tube and the exhaust tube. A power supply circuit is operatively coupled with the resistive heater. When the fluorescent lighting device is switched from an OFF state to an ON state, the power supply circuit temporarily energizes the resistive heater, thereby heating the at least one of the arc tube and the exhaust tube while the resistive heater is energized, and automatically de-energizing the resistive heater after said heating.
