AN ADD-ON INSTANT RESTRIKE DEVICE FOR AN HID LAMP ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE An "add-on" instant restrike device for a high- intensity discharge lamp ballast. The device initiates an operating discharge in an HID lamp when it is still hot from previous operation. The device consists of a high-voltage pulse-generating section which initiates breakdown in the lamp and an intermediate-voltage generating section which coacts with the existing ballasting capacitor to apply an intermediate potential to the lamp after initial breakdown. The intermediate potential has sufficient duration to permit one of the lamp electrodes to form an operating hot spot thereon to establish stable lamp operation.
