Abstract

A reflector lamp (R) having an improved dome section that increases the useful light output of the lamp is disclosed. The dome section has at least three portions each with a predetermined radius. The overall dimensions of the dome section are decreased relative to that of prior art lamps without suffering a loss to the structural integrity of the lamp itself.
