Who knows how to run an ELMO 8mm Dual Projector FP-A
From Greensboro NC,
Janice was kind to answer my question about an Elmo FP-C, which helped me. I suggest getting an inexpensive voltmeter at Harbor Freight Tools, if you do not have a VM. The wiring to the lamp socket may have been altered by a previous owner. The correct lamp is DCA, 150 W, 21 volts. As measured, the socket voltage should be a bit higher. Open the back case and look at the wiring, if the voltage is not correct. NEVER open the case with the power cord plugged in. Take care and good hunting. Thank you again Janice. David L. Baker (NOT the guy in Florida.)
