Jan:
     According the halogen lamp box, it's an Osram 64514 120v/300 W, I saw it 
seems to use an GX-6.35 socket, I think you could buy them from the right 
electronic components provider; I don't know if the adapter to fit the socket 
in the projector could be bought too or it's a "made in home" adaptor, but it 
does not look a problem difficult to solve (at least for an engineer friend of 
mine ;)

I still did not find a slide projector without problems with the cardboards 
mounts, my only slides with cardboards mounts are those 35mm processed by Kodak 
in the seventies and eighties that included the mount,otherwise I use plastic 
mounts.Anyway the P-11 has "extremely important" (Technical Report) latches for 
the magazines transport requiring to be adjusted via a lever at the exact 
distance regarding the transparency system, I still did not understand the 
issue very well, but it has to do with the exact magazine advance to insert the 
6x6 or 4x4 (mounted 35mm slides); I think some P-11 users complaints about 
jammed slide/ sliders have to do with these precise adjustments.
I use the P-11 for 6x6 (7x7 plastic mounted)slides only and I'm not sure if I 
want to upgrade it for halogen lamps yet, however I think I'll do it with the 
friend of mine electronic engineer help; BTW I agree with you the P-11 is easy 
to focus with the remote control.-
