Enlarger Bulbs Lifespan

[ChrisPlatt]

I have burned out one, maybe two incandescent enlarging bulb in thirty years.
That said not having a spare could put a quick end to an evening's printing.

IMO LED conversion is completely unnecessary for the hobbyist printer.

Andrew, thanks for the info!

A life span of 100 hours equates to 6000 minutes of usable time in the darkroom. I think this is very decent life span!
