A method and circuit for operating an incandescent lamp are disclosed in which the operating voltage applied to the lamp alternates in a regular and abrupt manner between forward and reverse polarities. The magnitude of the voltage is substantially the same for the two polarities and, therefore, the luminosity of the lamp is substantially constant. However, lamp life is increased as compared to standard DC operation since the alternating polarity of the operating voltage reduces the rate at which the lamp fails due to lamp filament breakage.
