A strobe trigger pulse generator includes a power supply, an energy storage capacitor coupled to the power supply and a trigger pulse generator which intermittently energizes a trigger pulse transformer to ionize the gaseous interior of a strobe flash lamp. The trigger pulse generator includes a trigger capacitor coupled to the trigger pulse transformer. A trigger capacitor charging device is coupled between the power supply and the trigger capacitor to selectively direct a charging current to the trigger capacitor. The trigger capacitor discharge circuit is coupled to the trigger capacitor to periodically discharge the capacitor through the trigger pulse transformer to generate a high voltage trigger pulse. A charge path disabling circuit is coupled to the current flow path between the power supply and the trigger capacitor to control the charging current directed to the trigger capacitor.
