GS-1200 xenon lamps

[Adam Deierling]

Does anyone know where to get new xenon lamps for the gs1200?

[Douglas Meltzer]

Adam,

I was about to suggest Wittner-Cinetec, however I see they do not carry it anymore.

Does anyone know of a place?

[Maurice Leakey]

Are these lamps of the Marc type? There doesn't seem to be much room for a conventional xenon lamp.
I have a xenon Eiki EX-2000A which has an extended lamp house to accommodate its lamp.

CHC list says various Xenon lamps for Elmo (and other machines) but doesn't state if 16mm only. You could always ask.

Ken do you have any idea what is the lumens for this type of lamp? I saw there are three lumens categories in the above specs. Btw for in LCD projectors world 4500 lumens is already quite high for home purposes.

Winbert
The lumen is the standard unit of luminous flux, so we measure luminous flux in lumens.
Therefore, you are correct in saying the lamp is 4500 lumens.

They are a good lamp and you will see notably deeper blacks on screen.
