The present invention discloses a light-emitting diode lamp for connecting to an external current source. The LED lamp comprises: a lighting source comprising a plurality of LEDs; a power control module for connecting in parallel to the external current source; and a driver unit connected between the power control module and the lighting source, wherein the power control module is configured to transform a source voltage of the external current source to a desired load voltage based on output power requirement of the plurality of LEDs; and the driver unit is configured to rectify the desired load voltage and output a driving voltage to drive the plurality of LEDs. Without the need to modify a lamp base of a conventional High Intensity Discharge lamp, the LED lamp of the present invention can be directly used to replace the HID lamp. Moreover, the power control module of the present invention ensures that LED lamps of different power have consistent shapes and dimensions, thus enhancing the versatility of components of the LED lamp and reducing the production costs.

The excimer lamp includes: a discharge container having a substantially quadrangular shape with a cross section, the discharge container having a pair of flat walls extending in a longitudinal direction and a pair of side walls connecting the flat walls; a pair of external electrodes facing each other disposed on outer surfaces of the pair of flat walls, respectively; a first internal electrode disposed inside the discharge container so as to extend toward inner surfaces of the pair of flat walls; and a second internal electrode disposed inside the discharge container at a position spaced apart from the first internal electrode in the longitudinal direction so as to extend toward the inner surfaces of the pair of flat walls. The first internal electrode and the second internal electrode are respectively disposed at positions between end parts and central parts of the external electrodes in the longitudinal direction.
