I'm trying to piece together darkroom equipment. Some time ago I acquired a Beseler 45V-XL enlarger free. However, it lacked a condenser head which I've since acquired. In it I found a 150w PH/212 enlarger bulb. Can anyone verify if this is the correct bulb for this enlarger?

According to this it is the PH 212 bulb. Click on “Specifications”—“Replacement Lamp”.

I have the same machine. The PH-212 is indeed the correct lamp for the condenser lamp house. I think you'll like that machine. It's very flexible.
