Abstract
A base assembly for a flash lamp is disclosed. The base assembly has an integrated sparker and includes an electrically conductive header having a surface that defines a boundary of a flash chamber for the flash lamp. There is an opening in the surface of the electrically conductive header and an electrically conductive lead within the opening. The electrically conductive lead is electrically insulated from surrounding portions of the electrically conductive header. A distal end of the electrically conductive lead is substantially flush with the surface of the electrically conductive header.
