Thumbs up Durst Labator Enlarger spares

For those of us still trying to use 5/4 kit from the 1970's, all can come to an abrupt end as the 30 year old switching gear packs up.
If Northern photo can help well your lucky as durst cannot supply the spares any more.
The body of the labator is built like a tank and so worth a continued search for some replacement transformer kit. Ah at last chaps! give Odyseey sales a call on 01273 67 67 68 Mostly devere but will help us Labators too.
Keep the red lights burning

I obtained spares for an LPL 5x4 enlarger from RK Photographic, I imagine they could also source an LPL 24v 250w transformer.

Also, be flexible: my L1200 runs off a De Vere transformer . And thanks to a head's-up from Dave I have a spare PSU via ebay for my much more complex AC1200.

Smaller halogen lamp enlargers (up to about 100W) can use readily available power supplies intended for domestic and commercial 12V halogen lighting circuits at a considerable cost saving.

Thanks to Dave & Bob,
Heres' hoping that the likes of RK will replace the target lead salesforce of Jessops!
