    New LED Diffusion Lamp House for Omega D Enlargers

    Just wanted to announce that I am offering a new, LED powered, diffusion lamp house for the Omega D-series enlargers. The unit incorporates four Cree XM-L LED's and an external DC power supply. The product is very solidly built of steel and aluminum and should last a lifetime. The LED's are derated and well heatsinked which means they should last at least 50,000 hours. The exterior is painted with black wrinkle paint to match the enlarger. Photos are attached. It is available either directly from me for $269.00 or from a popular online auction site. More information including test data can be found at my website, www.modernenlargerlamps.com.

    It looks like a nice product. The link you your site didn't work for me, though.

    There have been a few questions about how to set up the Model 2, so I have added a video to my website, www.modernenlargerlamps.com, showing the lamp house being installed and adjusted to eliminate light leaks.

    Make a universal model in 5x7.

    By universal do you mean like what I have now but without the vertical arms attaching it to the enlarger? You would have to lift it with your hands.

    Yes, a 5x7 box unit like the Aristogrid units would be easy to fit into most 5x7 enlargers. Leave the lifting details to the buyer if the enlarger design doesn't take a boxed light source. What you have for the D2 scaled up to 5x7 or 8x10 would fill a hole in the market, as Aristogrid seems to be only making replacement light sources on special orders. Even the Beseler 8x10 conversion used a box light unit that just sits on the adapter. I think you might find there are a lot of us who would be interested in larger units.
