Abstract
A reflector lamp having a concave reflector with a base at one end and a lens at an opposite end. A discharge lamp having a fill of or forming salts maintained by heat in a vapor phase is located near the base end of the reflector. When the reflector lamp is oriented in a near-horizontal position, the fill coming into contact with a colder, lower side of the discharge lamp partially condenses, coloring light passing through the condensate. At least two interior reflector surface areas, which have contours defined by rotating generatrices with configurations of conic section lines, reflect the colored light to distribute it evenly over a surface being illuminated and avoid creating a hot spot.
