Was poking about on the inter-web today and found out some wonderous news.

There is a manufacturer in Ireland still making flashbulbs. In fact the demand is so high there is a lead time wait on new production. right now their standard offerins are slim, but just imagine not having to hoard your precious bulbs.

their website is:
http://www.meggaflash.com/

P.S. the site also mentions that they do custom bulb work, probably pricey, but just imagine what you'd be able to get

Happy you discovered the "wonderous news" about meggaflash. However, a simple search of this site would had revealed references to it dating back to 2001.

There's lots of good stuff here if folks would take the time to look for it.

And the bulbs suffer from acute expensiveitis. They're available from Bill Cress in the U.S.

I am actively considering buying a genuine Graflex or Heiland gun. The problem is having to order a entire case of bulbs (48xPF200).
If nothing else I would have saved a good flashgun from the ******** fraternity.
