[ Sorry to post this to sci.electronics -- I imagine that there are more appropriate newsgroups, but this is the closest one that we subscribe to. Again, my apolgies. ] Greetings. I have an old Eastman Kodak Brownie 8 (model 10) movie projector, and I'm trying to find a replacement bulb for it. I've already called Kodak and GE, and GE doesn't make the bulb anymore. But I didn't know if someone might have one in their basement or if they might know of a place that stocks old obsolete bulbs. The information on the bulb is : ASA Code BMA 150 watt 115 volt S-11 bulb CL-8 filament Double contact base The bulb is mounted (soldered) into a base that has a reflector on the back it. Looking at the bulb from the side, it sort of looks like this : / --------- / / \ | / \ | | | Light projected Reflector -> | | | --------------> | \ / \ \_________/ \ | | =========== |___| " " Has anybody seen any bulbs like this? Any idea where I might find such a critter?? advTHANKSance (very much) Jon 11/6/90 ...{uunet | mcdchg | gatech | att}!motcid!scheer <-- Work ...{uunet | mcdchg | amtfocus}!outback!wombat <-- Home outback!wombat@UUNET.UU.NET or F1JON@ISUMVS.BITNET <-- Bitnet outback!wombat@chg.mcd.mot.com <-- Internet "Someday, son, all this will be yours."

I'm planning to make a lightning system for my bike (mountain bike) and like to use a 6 volt halogen bulb with about 10 to 30 watt power. I'm not shure about what kind of bulb that is avalable, but I know there is some type of bulb called H3, which are very common on cars. The problem with these bulbs is that they are only available for 12 volt system and the power is 55 watt (and larger). This is too much for me. Does anybody know if there exist a H3 bulb for 6 volt system in the right power range (10 to 30 watt)? Please send all mails to dahls-stamnes@elab-runit.sintef.no and not the the adr. shown in this articel - thanx.
