Gonna need a CRX for my Bolex. Can anyone recommend a good, reasonably priced supplier that I can order from on-line? Also, a recommendation for a good brand. Are Eiko lamps any good? Thanks.

Barry,

I think you mean CXR instead of CRX. 8 Volt 50 watts.
They're $18.95 here.
I've never had problems with Eiko.

Ahh the dyslexia or maybe it's Oldtimers disease! Yep, you're right Doug, I transposed. Thanks for that site. I think I ordered from them once before and they are about as reasonable as anyone.

check with Steve Osborne...at The Reel Image... 937-296-9036. He's got tons of bulbs.....at very good prices...especially some older lamps. He sells everything else for film folk as well..including films.
