Hello Forum,
I am new to this group but not to electronics. I have a 30 year old BAIA 8mm movie editor I got out of storage. I use to make stop motion animation movies when 8mm movie camera were all one had.
I would like to fix my old editor which will not work, right now. The transformer seems to be bad (tested with DMM). The editor's bulb is a 6V (DC I am guessing?) bulb rated at 30 watts. I tried digi Key and Jamco for a power transformer but no luck. My other option is to make a cluster of 3 super bright LEDs and just power those off a wall wart.
Any CONSTRUCTIVE! suggestions or ideas will be appreciated.
