FAQs - Cryostats

Do I have to buy replacement UV bulbs from Wolflabs or are these generic items that can be sourced from a variety of suppliers?
Replacement UV bulbs can be sourced from a specialist bulb supplier such as http://www.sld-london.co.uk/products/specialist-lamps/. You don't usually even have to use the same manufacturer as providing the supplier with the manufacturer's name and model number (this is generally printed on the bulb) will normally allow them to quote an equivalent size and Wattage.
