HISTORY:
My primary interests have always been electronics and the 'the arts' and more specifically, music, artwork and hand crafted/decorated chinaware's.
I am not a film enthusiast but an associate has asked me to find new owners for THEIR large collection of photographic and film items ... this is yet another one of those items.
One of his machines was the TITAN TRIMATIC silent projector which just had too many issues to warrant having it serviced so it is now sitting on the workbench undergoing "the operation" i.e it is becoming an organ donor for other TITAN projectors.
This is the projection lamp ... keep in mind that this A1/17 lamp MAY suit other projectors too
TITAN (Japan) - Projector Lamp
Lighthouse style
Made in Japan
Circa 1970's
Bell & Howell manufacturer
Model: A1/17
8 Volts 50 Watts
Tested in the Trimatic projector BEFORE it underwent "the operation" on the workshop bench ... running fine and Oh my! don't these get hot!
According to online sources, the expected running life of this style of lamp is 25 hours (brand new lamp)
COSMETIC CONDITION:
This lamp is of an unknown age nor am I aware of how many hours are "on the clock"
The lamp is working fine ... for how long, no-one knows! I am offering this lamp for those who need to have a "spare" sitting around when they urgently need a replacement lamp.
It could run for 25 hours or it could run for 50 seconds!
CLEAN
Free of any marks or handling damage
I have now carefully and sensibly folded up this dust cover and placed it within a sealed clear plastic packet to maintain the current condition.
