Lamp bulbs help needed.

[ianm 2,594]

does any one know where to get proper replacement bulbs for a 240 blitz and a clulite lazerlite. there are different types available from different sources and i dont know which are the correct ones, Can anyone shed any light on the matter

if you dont mind paying them prices go arthur carter. 100w for the blitz and 50w main bulb lazerlite.

 

if you want them cheaper, look on ebay for the xenophot capsule bulbs and just check its the correct one for your lamp.

there are some with filaments vertical and some horizontal do you know what the difference is.

What if I was to put a 100w bulb into a 50w lazerlite would it be brighter or just blow up!

The reflector may not stand the extra heat generated by a bulb with twice the output.

Target Sports in Bolton is where I get mine (mail order). For Lightforce the bulb you want is the one they come with, the vertical filament. What this looks like is... If you stand the bulb on it's prongs the coil inside the bulb should run up-down. This gives a circular spot beam. You can use the horizontal filament, which runs left to right, but this gives a slightly oval spot.

 

They come with the vertical filaments as standard so that's what I'd go for in a Lightforce.

 

Can't help with clulite sorry.

Cluson are selling reflectors for £8 and bulbs for a fiver.

 

So is that it or will I need any other extras,

 

All the best,

they are an OSRAM replacement bulb (for projecters) don't get ripped off by the fieldsports classified b-stards, use "mcroft lighting" at derby mail order it, it's a 100w (watt) bulb you need for the blitz, but don't touch the glass with your fingers no matter what. The bulb will blow with grese of any kind on it, even from your skin!

 

for lazerlite you need to replace the mirror part (reflector) from the standard plastick to a metal onen to run the hundred watt instead of the fifty watt same applies as above You need at least 10 ah batt to run the 100w though
