Abstract

A flashing light warning apparatus, which includes a voltage source (U), a main gate transformer (HW), a flash tube (R), an ignition device (Z), at least one storage condenser (K), and an electrical switching device (S), can be switched to provide light energy for daytime flashes and nighttime flashes in an uncomplicated, cost effective system which produces dependable light flashes. The night flashes have a light energy such that they can be seen from afar only with night vision apparatus. When the switching device turns off voltage production of the main gate transformer or further transmission of voltage from the at least one storage condenser, the ignition device is coupled to an auxiliary gate transformer (ZW) for carrying out light flash production by means of high frequency ignition voltage produced by the ignition device.
