<p>An oven for cooking food in with visible, near-visible, and infrared radiant energy comprises first (36, 38) and second (56, 58) pluralities of high power lamps positioned above and below the food respectively. The first plurality of lamps (36, 38) is sequentially operated at a first average power by applying power in a staggered manner, and the second plurality of lamps (56, 58) is sequentially operated at a second average power level by applying power in a staggered manner so that not all of the second plurality of lamps (56, 58) are on at the same time. The stagger can be varied to change the time average power level of either lamp plurality.</p> |
