MIke = maybe 650 is really 6500 - that is, typo in the list of attributes..

however, would the lower lumens mean lower heat?  You can tell I'm terribly ignorant abut this stuff..

I wonder if there is a youtube tutorial on gerry-rigging the projector to use an LED bulb as you suggested

I don't have the skills for making a bespoke :-)

650lumens is quite low.  A 50W LED array produces 3000.  That would be too 
bright and too large.  A 10W array is under an inch in diameter and runs off 
2-6V.  Add a four AA battery holder, some wire and a tube of epoxy adhesive and 
Bob's a poverty-stricken Lancastrian.  A bit more cost than a single bulb but 
likely to be available for longer. Pity you're not closer.

Do you have a photo/description of the old bulb?  Shouldn't be too hard to make a bespoke 
LED replacement.  Probably cheaper than a "vintage" lamp as well.

The old bulb finially died.. I ordered another..I'm needing more and
more to do a quick view of slides blown up but the 300W bulbs are
killers in so many ways..
Has someone been able to replace it with an LED or CFL ?   OR is there a
projector for 35mm slides made that uses a LED bulb.. Doesn't need to
project slides
to anything larger than  a yard across.

Ideas?
