[pure-silver] Re: Enlarger Lamp Life

That's good! Half of what I paid over here for the same item.
Thanks for that

Well I have had more of an issue with bulbs when the enlarger had to be moved for any of a number of reasons. I ended up just keeping spares around. Try www.bulbdirect.com As cheap as the bulbs were for the enlarger I have now, it didn't make sense to worry about it. Now my enlarger had apparently been rewired to take a cheaper bulb, but it worked and I don't have any problems with it, except when I have to move the table back for the wife to clean behind the table in the laundry room. Trust me its far less aggravation to buy a bulb than try to explain to the wife why the table shouldn't be moved. I tried that over a decade ago and learned that there is only one acceptable answer and it has only two words. Yes Dear.

Hello - I'm a new poster to this list but I've
consulted it regularly.

I know that this topic has been dealt with before - but the
enlarger
lamp I need to  use is is rather expensive
(€21,£16.96,$26.17 and so
forth) and they have a nasty habit of blowing. My enlarger
is a Meopta
with a colour head which uses  a Philips Focusline fibre
optic lamp
type 6834 FO. I suspected a faulty transformer. using a
multimeter I
got a maximum, but steady 13.1 volts output from the
transformer. The
lamp is rated at 12volts 100w. Is it being overloaded at
13v? Could
this be the reason for the frequent blowouts or is there
some
tolerance with the voltage?

Hope somone can help with this -
