Abstract

A reflector for a lighting fixture that provides a uniform level of lighting. The reflector has a first arcuate portion having a first upper surface and a second arcuate portion having a second upper surface. A first aperture in the first arcuate portion is adapted to receive a first lamp. A second aperture in the second arcuate portion is adapted to receive a second lamp. First and second mounting members on the first and second upper surfaces are adapted to be connected to a lighting fixture housing.
