<p>In a discharge lamp lighting apparatus (10) to light two discharge lamps (5a, 5b), one terminal of the secondary side of a step-up transformer (3) is connected, via each of two variable inductance elements (4A, 4B), to one terminal of each of the two discharge lamps (5a, 5b), the other terminal of each of the two discharge lamps (5a, 5b) is connected to one lamp current detecting unit (6) connected to a lamp current control circuit (7), a switch is provided at the previous step of the lamp current control circuit (7), an output signal from one phase adjusting circuit is connected, via the switch, to the connection portion of the lamp current detecting unit (6) and the lamp current control circuit (7), and the inductance of each variable inductance element (4A, 4B) is varied by an output signal which is sent from the lamp current control circuit (7), and which has a phase shifted from others, whereby the lamp current flowing through each discharge lamp (5a, 5b) is controlled.</p> |
