What makes xenon lamps different from the average light bulb?
Jim Wells: Xenon lamps give you a very bright, very steady white light that is ideal for movie projectors where reliability is so important. The light is much more intense than a household bulb—the standard bulbs for modern projectors usually carry at least a 2000-watt to 7000-watt rating. A good quality xenon bulb is far more efficient and reliable than the carbon arc lights used in the past. Xenon lamps are standard equipment in most projectors today? Stefanie Farnsworth: Yes, there are quite a few older projectors still in use that have carbon arc lights, but (most of-in India they still manufacture new carbon arc projectors) the new projectors manufactured today use xenon. And that includes special formats like (IMAX?)Omnimax also. Xenon works with the new emerging digital projection systems, and we see that as a big market for us moving forward. Has ASL always been in the projector lamp business? And who are some of the other big players out there? Jim Wells: Our parent company, A
