We describe a simple modification of a McPhersonhyphen;Hintereggerhyphen;type capillary discharge lamp which converts it from a cold cathode discharge to a hot filament discharge. This results in about a 10hyphen;fold intensity increase in the 7ndash;12 eV photon energy range and about a fourfold increase in operating time between cleanings. The spectral output power is presented.
