A glow discharge lamp provided with two electrode wires, one end of each wire having a feedthrough connection extending through the lamp wall and the other end being embedded in the wall. By shaping the wires as U's and defining certain dimensional relationships, the so-called "hollow cathode" effect is obtained; so reducing the wall-blackening effect with age and enabling the discharge current (and hence the luminous flux) to be increased.
