GM> JE> Not knowing precisely which bulb he uses I don't know, but
GM> JE> try   www.bulbdirect.com          They seem to have quite a

GM>He could probably get the local GEC agents to import the bulbs

Did you check the above url?

GM>Five or six years ago they were talking about $300 per bulb.
GM>Fortunately he managed to get some from a collector, brand new
GM>and only $5 each. But now he has only a couple left.

GM>To save the bulbs, he now starts up the projector on a variac and
GM>warms the bulbs gradually before bringing them up to full power.
GM>It seems to work -- he hasn't blown one in over a year.
