After reading the thread about filament bulbs being discontinued in the UK - http://www.apug.org/forums/forum172/...appear-uk.html I thought I'd better see about getting some additional spares.

Seems that due to a Philips factory closing down they are already unavailable for my Meopta enlarger, at least my searching and enquiring so far has turned up nothing.

The bulb that I'm using is a 240v 150W E27 fit type P605 E/51-P3/4. I've also tried looking for the Osram product versions, but they no longer appear on the Osram catalogue.

So, any ideas about equivalents, or do I need to start looking for a cold light head?

Thanks
