A glass tube lamp matrix device includes a working gas container set and a glass tube matrix. The working gas container set includes a plurality of parallel first elongated containers in a plane and a plurality of parallel second elongated containers crossing the first elongated containers in a plane and forming an angle therewith. Each of the first and second elongated containers contains a working gas therein. The glass tube matrix includes a plurality of thin glass tubes, each of which having two open ends which are fluidly and respectively communicated with one of the first elongated containers and one of the second elongated containers, thereby filling the glass tubes with the working gas. Each of the glass tubes has a cross-sectional area much smaller than that of the first and second elongated containers. The working gas in a particular glass tube discharges so as to emit light when a sufficient voltage drop is applied to electrodes provided in the first and second elongated containers corresponding to the particular glass tube. Due to the large working gas capacity of the container set, a longer useful life and lower maintenance costs can be achieved.
