    Don't bother telling your potential seller all the possible ins and outs of cold light heads. If he/she wants it, and it works, just sell it. If you spend 14 hours discussing all the possible issues, you might as well throw it in the trash. Just sell it and tell them about this forum if they need help.

    Here is what I have. The foot pedal is all rusted so that probably doesn't work. Is there suppose to be a diffuser for the lamp? The enlarger is 45MX II.

    If they had some knowledge on developing I would, but I think she maybe a high school student and I don't want to take advantage.

    Hey, first, YES, the diffuser is missing. Is the bulb intact? That doesn't mean it is a piece of junk, but you will need to add a few more hours into your detailed explanation of cold light sources for your buyer. I don't know what you normally charge per hour, but this does not look like a winner to me -- assuming it actually works!

    Can you get a refund on your purchase?

    The 5 or 6 cold light heads I've fiddled with (both Aristo and Zone VI) all had a white plastic diffuser disk for the lamp. I don't think it's anything special, just a 1/8" thick round of white acrylic.

    Campy...you are obviously a very caring individual who is not just out to make a quick buck. Good for you!

    Thanks you. I told them they may need to get additional items and they are still interested.
