Anyone know of an upgrade for the Lightforce 100W VF bulb or where is a cheap supply of the VF??
 
Theatre suppliers might be worth googling, I got the 50 watt bulbs for my clulite from one. Bought 10, think they were £2/3 a piece

These projector bulb have a HF filament in them which throws an oval beam where the VF equivalent throws a spot beam.
HF=horizontal filament/VF=vertical filament... Tried the HF and they are rubbish and they have half the range of the VF.
 
The ones I got were the same as supplied by Cluson but way cheaper. If I can find the site I used I'll have a look and see what they have

If you do use a cheaper bulb than the LF replacement make sure the filament runs vertically rather than horizontally otherwise you will find you have a black spot in the middle of your beam.
 
Prior to finding the link above i bought one from Bushys @ £9.50 for the correct bulb and the vertical 100w are £6.50 but shine a wide and dull beam.
Going to order some spare as the vertical filament have a shorter life.

Is that not the HF bulb shown on the link
 
Part number is same as the vertical one i just bought. I will check with them as the image may be wrong?

Red Dot what bulb is the better
 
The VF has a spot beam but has a shorter life and costs more but you will pop more foxes so take your pick?
