(under subclass 11) Subject matter in which the temperature modifier is an electric heater.
(1) Note. This subclass does not include lamps or discharge devices where the only heating means for the lamp or discharge device is a light emitting filament, a directly heated or indirectly heated cathode or other thermionic cathode or where the heating means is a means for heating a gas or vapor generating material (e.g., a getter). See subclasses 549+ for the discharge devices and lamps with electric heating means for a gas or vapor generating material.
