The old TV Tube seems to be based on the same "puck" principle by accelerating and bundeling electrons into a beam. The trick is to absorb the energy in a pin-head size plasma point to excite the Ar to 6000?K and to not have the e-beam fly through the gas bubble in the Tic-Tac. Luxim must have found the right frequency to resonate with the Ar gas. Could a slight misalignment lead to excessive radiation?
