Re: NuArc Happy Dance!
Hi Jeremy, and thanks! I'll keep that in mind about the bulbs. Something I learned a long time ago is that it seems if you have a spare bulb (enlarger, slide projector, etc), the original one will last way longer than it's normal life expectancy ;o) I'm going to get a spare bulb, and fuses for it so I'm prepared. susan On 2/3/07, Jeremy Moore <jeremydmoore@gmail.com> wrote: Susan, I'm doing the dance along with you! I purchased my NuArc for just a little under your cost and drove the 3 hours up to Oklahoma to pick it up about 4 months ago and it has been chugging away ever since. Let me suggest that you purchase bulbs for it from Freestyle Photo (http://www.freestylephoto.biz) as their bulbs are $44.95 and work just fine. I "think" they may be a lower wattage than the bulbs direct from NuArc, but with the light integrator that doesn't really matter other than having longer exposure times. -Jeremy- On 2/3/07, SusanV <susanvoss3@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Mark!
