Author Topic: Xebex parts? Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 02-18-2016 04:19 PM                     Is there any source for Hi-Beam parts? I might need an ignitor unit and maybe a reflector.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-19-2016 10:44 AM                     Which model of Hi beam the oldest were grey the middle aged were tan with the ignitor on top the last ones were blue parts were different  |  IP: Logged Dave Macaulay Film God Posts: 2321 From: Toronto, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 02-19-2016 04:06 PM                     That suggests you know where parts are? Need to look again to confirm but I think they are the brown HB II ones. A long time ago I stripped quite a few HiBeam units to scrap the cabinets, and carefully packed up the ignitor boards and other "useful" parts... all gone to the dumpster long ago.  |  IP: Logged Frank Cox Film God Posts: 2234 From: Melville Saskatchewan Canada Registered: Apr 2011 posted 02-19-2016 04:52 PM                        When I first set up my theatre I purchased a bunch of used equipment for the projection room and my first lamphouse was a brown Xebex. What a monster -- there was room to sleep inside of that thing! I replaced it with a much more efficient Strong lamphouse about a year or so later. Edit: At least I think it was a Xebex. It was name very similar to that anyway -- a huge and heavy brown thing with a glass reflector.  |  IP: Logged
