Abstract
A portable soldering device comprises a short arc lamp including an alumina ceramic cylindrically shaped body with a concave opening at one end that is plated with silver to form an ellipsoidal reflector, a cathode suspended within the concave opening in opposition to an anode protruding through a hole in the center of the concave opening from the opposite end of the body, a circular iron base that supports the anode at its center and attaches to the body. The soldering device further comprises a cone-shaped hood over the flat window and a supply of inert gas attached to the hood that excludes smoke, residue and splatter from infiltrating the hood.
